CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 357

Which of the following is the best reason to complete an audit in a banking environment?

Answer options

• A. Regulatory requirement
• B. Organizational change
• C. Self-assessment requirement
• D. Service-level requirement

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The best reason to conduct an audit in a banking environment is due to regulatory requirements, as financial institutions are mandated to comply with various laws and regulations. While organizational change, self-assessment requirements, and service-level requirements may be important, they do not carry the same legal obligation or necessity as regulatory requirements do.
