This is another poorly worded CompTIA question. We are looking for the 'MOST" effective person to (validate results.) Answer C, is wrong. The CIO is an important person, however the CIO could care less about validating results. Answer B, The Pentest 'Team Leader' would be very qualified. Numerous job functions assigned to this role even start with the words 'verifies' and 'validates.' ++++++++++++++++ CIO-IT Security-11-51, Revision 5 Conducting Penetration Test Exercises 4.1 Responsibilities A Penetration Test is a coordinated effort between the ISSM/ISSO, Systems Owner and the Penetration Testing team. 4.1.2 Pentest Lead - Drafts Kick Off meeting slides and RoE - Schedules Kick Off meeting - Verifies the Penetration Test Type - Validates the Scope - Manages the Penetration Test schedule - Assigns a Penetration tester - Signs the RoE - Circulates the RoE for signatures.

Selected Answer: B
Another poor question with little context. If the Team Leader is the Pentesters Team Leader, then I feel they would be the best person to validate the results of a pentest, prior to presenting them to the Client or CIO. B - Team Leader.
