Temporarily deactivating some monitoring processes, even if supported by an acceptance of operationa

Temporarily deactivating some monitoring processes, even if supported by an acceptance of operational risk, may not be acceptable to the information security manager if:

A.
it implies compliance risks.

B.
short-term impact cannot be determined.

C.
it violates industry security practices.

D.
changes in the roles matrix cannot be detected.

Explanation:
Monitoring processes are also required to guarantee fulfillment of laws and regulations of the organization and, therefore, the information security manager will be obligated to comply with the law. Choices B and C are evaluated as part of the operational risk. Choice D is unlikely to be as critical a breach of regulatory legislation. The acceptance of operational risks overrides choices B, C and D.
