ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – Vendor Risk Management — Question 57

A vendor is assessed and responds to a question which impacts one of the Controls applied to them. When is the Control Status updated?

Answer options

• A. When the Vendor Risk Assessment State is Responses Received
• B. When the Vendor Risk Assessment State is Finalizing with Vendor or Closed
• C. When the Vendor Risk Assessment response is saved
• D. When all Questions in the Vendor Risk Assessment have a response

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Control Status is updated when the Vendor Risk Assessment State is Finalizing with Vendor or Closed, indicating that the assessment process is complete. The other options, such as Responses Received or saving responses, do not signify the finalization of the assessment, and thus do not trigger an update to the Control Status.
