Selected Answer: B
Correct answer is B: Regular IT balanced scorecards are communicated. Because it reflects measured performance, strategic alignment, and the program’s ability to demonstrate value and accountability — core CISM principles.

Selected Answer: A
Not B because, balance scorecard does not directly indicate the effectiveness of the security program in terms of detecting and responding to incidents. Balanced scorecards provide a high-level overview of various metrics but may not capture the nuances of incident detection and reporting improvements
