Has your organization reviewed recent audit findings to verify that your cybersecurity strategy effectively ensures compliance with both internal policies and external regulatory requirements?

This question assesses whether your organization has a process to evaluate the effectiveness of your cybersecurity strategy through audit findings analysis. Regular review of audit results helps identify compliance gaps, validate control effectiveness, and determine if your security approach meets both internal standards and external regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, or industry-specific requirements. Evidence could include a formal audit findings report with management responses, a compliance gap analysis document, or meeting minutes from security governance committees where audit results were reviewed and remediation plans were discussed. These documents should show clear traceability between identified issues, compliance requirements, and any resulting strategic adjustments.
