Which of the following risks could result from inadequate software baselining?

A.
Scope creep

B.
Sign-off delays

C.
Software integrity violations

D.
inadequate controls

Explanation:

A software baseline is the cut-off point in the design and development of a system beyond which
additional requirements or modifications to the design do not or cannot occur without undergoing
formal strict procedures for approval based on a businesscost-benefit analysis. Failure to
adequately manage the requirements of a system through baselining can result in a number of
risks. Foremost among these risks is scope creep, the process through which requirements
change during development. ChoicesB, C and D may not always result, but choice A is inevitable.
