Malicious program code was found in an application and corrected prior to release into production. After the release, the same issue was reported. Which of the following is the IS auditor's BEST recommendation?
A.
Ensure corrected program code is compiled in a dedicated server.
B.
Ensure change management reports are independently reviewed.
C.
Ensure programmers cannot access code after the completion of program edits.
D.
Ensure the business signs off on end-to-end user acceptance test (UAT) results.
is B , If a previously identified issue reoccurs after corrections have been made, it is possible that the corrections were not implemented correctly or that new issues were introduced during the correction process. Therefore, it is important to investigate why the issue was not fully resolved and to take steps to prevent a recurrence.
B. must be the correct answer. From the description of the situation in the question, there is no indication of a possible cause for the recurrence of the problem in production. However, options A., C. and D. already suggest a cause and offer solutions. So it can only be B., always one after the other. There are a thousand possibilities in the whole change process that could be the cause. This must first be determined independently.
