. Request justification from management for not implementing the recommended control: While understanding management's rationale for choosing a different action plan is important, the priority should be to evaluate the effectiveness of the controls they have implemented. This understanding can be part of the evaluation process, but it should not precede the assessment of control effectiveness.

Selected Answer: D
The best course of action for the IS auditor, upon finding that senior management has implemented a different remediation action plan than what was previously agreed upon, is to request justification from management for not implementing the recommended control. This allows the auditor to understand the reasons behind the deviation and assess whether the implemented control effectively addresses the identified risks.
