The results of a risk assessment for a potential network reconfiguration reveal a high likelihood of sensitive data being compromised. What is the information security manager ' s BEST course of
action?
A.
Recommend additional network segmentation.
B.
Seek an independent opinion to confirm the findings.
The information security manager’s best course of action is to report the findings of the risk assessment to the key stakeholders, such as senior management, business owners, and regulators. This will ensure that the stakeholders are aware of the potential impact of the risk and can make informed decisions on how to address it. The other options are possible actions to take after reporting the findings, but they are not the best course of action in this scenario.
