Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 19

An organization requires updates to their IT infrastructure to meet business needs. Which of the following will provide the MOST useful information when planning for the necessary IT investments?

Answer options

• A. Audit findings
• B. Business user satisfaction metrics
• C. Enterprise architecture
• D. Risk assessment report

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Audit findings provide a detailed overview of current infrastructure weaknesses and compliance issues, making them crucial for informed investment decisions. While business user satisfaction metrics, enterprise architecture, and risk assessment reports can offer useful insights, they do not directly identify specific gaps or requirements for IT improvements as effectively as audit findings do.
