Question

As an auditor, you have noticed that ABC Inc. has established a procedure to manage the removable storage media. The procedure is based on the classification scheme adopted by ABC Inc. Thus, if the information stored is classified as "confidential," the procedure applies. On the other hand, the information that is classified as "public," does not have confidentiality requirements: thus, only a procedure for ensuring its integrity and availability applies. What type of audit finding is this?

Explanation

This scenario represents a conformity because ABC Inc. has implemented procedures for managing removable storage media that align with the classification scheme of the information stored. When information is classified as "confidential," more stringent procedures apply, whereas for "public" information, the procedures focus only on integrity and availability, following the organization's defined information classification policy.
