Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Define scope, then identify controls, then assess effectiveness, then identify gaps, then report results
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because CSA starts with defining the scope of the assessment, then identifying the controls in place, assessing their effectiveness, identifying any gaps, and finally reporting the findings.
- ✗
Define scope, then assess effectiveness, then identify controls, then identify gaps, then report results
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because controls must be identified before their effectiveness can be assessed.
- ✗
Identify controls, then define scope, then assess effectiveness, then identify gaps, then report results
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the scope must be defined before controls can be identified.
- ✗
Define scope, then identify controls, then identify gaps, then assess effectiveness, then report results
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because gaps are identified after assessing effectiveness, not before.
