Answer / guest
Answer: A
The first concern of the IS auditor should be to establish
that the proposal meets the needs of the business, and this
should be established by a clear business case. Although
compliance with security standards is essential, as are
meeting the needs of the users and having users involved in
the implementation process, it is too early in the
procurement process for these to be the IS auditor's first
concern.
