Sample Questions with Detailed Explanations
See exactly how this course prepares you for interview success:
Question 1 (IT Strategy Section):
During a merger, your CIO mandates aligning IT systems within 6 months. Which framework BEST ensures business-IT synchronization while minimizing disruption?
A) Waterfall methodology
B) ITIL Service Strategy
C) COBIT 5 Governance Goals
D) Agile Scrum framework
Correct Answer: C) COBIT 5 Governance Goals
Explanation:
COBIT 5’s governance goals (e.g., EDM03: Ensure Risk Optimization) directly link IT decisions to business outcomes during high-stakes transitions like mergers. While ITIL (B) focuses on service delivery and Agile (D) on iterative development, COBIT provides the strategic governance layer to prioritize business continuity, risk management, and resource allocation—critical when integrating systems under tight deadlines. Waterfall (A) lacks the flexibility required for merger complexities. Interview Tip: Emphasize how COBIT bridges business objectives and IT execution in volatile scenarios.
Question 2 (Security Section):
A GDPR audit reveals your cloud database stores EU customer data without encryption. What is the FIRST action per compliance best practices?
A) Notify affected customers within 72 hours
B) Isolate the database and encrypt data retroactively
C) Conduct a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA)
D) Report the breach to the supervisory authority
Correct Answer: B) Isolate the database and encrypt data retroactively
Explanation:
GDPR Article 32 requires "pseudonymization and encryption" as a core security measure. Immediate isolation and encryption mitigate ongoing risk—the primary duty under GDPR. While breach notification (A, D) is mandatory within 72 hours if personal data is compromised, the first step is containment. A DPIA (C) is preventive and done before high-risk processing, not post-breach. Interview Tip: Interviewers test if you prioritize active risk mitigation over procedural steps.
