Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) — Question 1388
An organization wants to change its project methodology to address increasing costs and process changes. Which of the following is the BEST methodology to use?
Answer options
- A. Agile application development
- B. Waterfall application development
- C. Joint application development
- D. Object-oriented application development
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Agile application development is the best choice because it allows for flexibility and iterative progress, making it easier to adapt to changes and control costs. In contrast, Waterfall is more rigid and sequential, which can lead to higher costs if changes are needed. Joint application development focuses on collaboration but may not address cost management as effectively, while object-oriented application development is a programming paradigm rather than a project methodology.
