CISA QUESTION #1761
Question 1
Why is change control fundamentally a governance issue?
  • Proper change control reduces the need for separate test and production environments
  • Change control increases the overall trust factor
  • It allows administrators to be granted more authority, saving management time
  • It enforces separation of duties by requiring agreement from at least two individuals✔️
Correct Answer Explanation
Change control is a governance foundation because it reduces questionable decisions, eliminates waste on low-value tasks, and mitigates risk. Critically, it enforces separation of duties — ensuring that no single person can unilaterally approve and implement a change.
