The company offers a wide range of handcrafted pieces tailored to meet the needs of residential and commercial clients. NobleFind also provides expert design consultation services. Despite NobleFind's efforts to keep its online shop platform secure, the company faced persistent issues, including a recent data breach. These ongoing challenges disrupted normal operations and underscored the need for enhanced security measures. The designated IT team quickly responded to resolve the problem. To address these issues, NobleFind decided to implement an Information Security Management System (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001 to improve security, protect customer data, and ensure the stability of its services.
In addition to its commitment to information security, NobleFind focuses on maintaining the accuracy and completeness of its product data. This is ensured by carefully managing version control, checking information regularly, enforcing strict access policies, and implementing backup procedures. Moreover, product details and customer designs are accessible only to authorized individuals, with security measures such as multi-factor authentication and data access policies.
NobleFind has implemented an incident investigation process within its ISMS, as part of its comprehensive approach to information security. Additionally, it has established record retention policies to ensure that online information about each product and client information remains readily accessible and usable on demand for authorized entities. NobleFind established an information security policy offering clear guidelines for safeguarding historical data. It also insisted that personnel sign confidentiality agreements and were committed to recruiting only qualified individuals. Additionally, NobleFind implemented measures for monitoring the resources used by its systems, reviewing user access rights, and conducting a thorough analysis of audit logs to swiftly identify and address any security anomalies.
With its ISMS in place, NobleFind maintains and safeguards documented information, encompassing a wide range of data, records, and specifications. This documented information is vital to its operations, ensuring the security and integrity of customer data, historical records, and financial information.
Based on the scenario above, answer the following question.

Scenario 8: SunDee is an American biopharmaceutical company, headquartered in California, the US. It specializes in developing novel human therapeutics, with a focus on cardiovascular diseases, oncology, bone health, and inflammation. The company has had an information security management system (ISMS) based on SO/IEC 27001 in place for the past two years. However, it has not monitored or measured the performance and effectiveness of its ISMS and conducted management reviews regularly
Just before the recertification audit, the company decided to conduct an internal audit. It also asked most of their staff to compile the written individual reports of the past two years for their departments. This left the Production Department with less than the optimum workforce, which decreased the company's stock.
Tessa was SunDee's internal auditor. With multiple reports written by 50 different employees, the internal audit process took much longer than planned, was very inconsistent, and had no qualitative measures whatsoever Tessa concluded that SunDee must evaluate the performance of the ISMS adequately. She defined SunDee's negligence of ISMS performance evaluation as a major nonconformity, so she wrote a nonconformity report including the description of the nonconformity, the audit findings, and recommendations. Additionally, Tessa created a new plan which would enable SunDee to resolve these issues and presented it to the top management
How does SunDee's negligence affect the ISMS certificate? Refer to scenario 8.

Scenario 9: OpenTech provides IT and communications services. It helps data communication enterprises and network operators become multi-service providers During an internal audit, its internal auditor, Tim, has identified nonconformities related to the monitoring procedures He identified and evaluated several system Invulnerabilities.
Tim found out that user IDs for systems and services that process sensitive information have been reused and the access control policy has not been followed After analyzing the root causes of this nonconformity, the ISMS project manager developed a list of possible actions to resolve the nonconformity. Then, the ISMS project manager analyzed the list and selected the activities that would allow the elimination of the root cause and the prevention of a similar situation in the future. These activities were included in an action plan The action plan, approved by the top management, was written as follows:
A new version of the access control policy will be established and new restrictions will be created to ensure that network access is effectively managed and monitored by the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Department
The approved action plan was implemented and all actions described in the plan were documented.
Based on scenario 9, OpenTech has taken all the actions needed, except____________.

Recently, it has applied for a j^ombined certification audit in order to obtain certification against ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001.
After selecting the certification body, NetworkFuse prepared the employees for the audit The company decided to not conduct a self-evaluation before the audit since, according to the top management, it was not necessary. In addition, it ensured the availability of documented information, including internal audit reports and management reviews, technologies in place, and the general operations of the ISMS and the QMS. However, the company requested from the certification body that the documentation could not be carried off-site
However, the audit was not performed within the scheduled days because NetworkFuse rejected the audit team leader assigned and requested their replacement The company asserted that the same audit team leader issued a recommendation for certification to its main competitor, which, for the company's top management, was a potential conflict of interest. The request was not accepted by the certification body
Based on scenario 10. NetworkFuse did not conduct a self-evaluation of the ISMS before the audit. Is this compliant to ISO/IEC 27001?
