Certified Chief Information Security Officer (CCISO) — Question 91

What is a Statement of Objectives (SOA)?

Answer options

• A. A section of a contract that defines tasks to be performed under said contract
• B. An outline of what the military will do during war
• C. A document that outlines specific desired outcomes as part of a request for proposal
• D. Business guidance provided by the CEO

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a Statement of Objectives (SOA) explicitly details the outcomes sought in a request for proposal. Option A relates to contract tasks, which is not the primary focus of an SOA, while B discusses military strategy and D pertains to executive guidance, neither of which align with the purpose of an SOA.
