Any other option is not the best course of action as it may not be an appropriate response to management's requests and may delay the sharing of information.

Selected Answer: B
By requesting the auditee to provide management responses, the IS auditor can ensure that management is informed of the audit findings and recommendations in a timely and accurate manner, while also providing the auditee with an opportunity to explain their perspective and proposed actions. This approach can enhance the credibility and transparency of the audit process, promote collaboration and cooperation between the IS auditor and the auditee, and increase the likelihood of effective follow-up and monitoring of the audit recommendations.

the client ( Management) pays the auditor for an audit, and wants an update, even during the audit, from the auditor not from the auditee. Also you never say no to a cient if he wants an update at any period of the audit. So D is the answer, just for discussion.. Nothing formal.
