Exam ISO-IEC-27001-Lead-Auditor Topic 2 Question 122 Discussion

Actual exam question for PECB's ISO-IEC-27001-Lead-Auditor exam
Question #: 122
Topic #: 2
Finnco, a subsidiary of a certification body, provided ISMS consultancy services to an organization. Considering this scenario, when can the certification body certify the organization?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

A certification body cannot certify an organization if it has provided consultancy services to that organization. This situation presents a conflict of interest, as the certification body is required to maintain impartiality and objectivity. The ISO/IEC 17021-1 standard, which sets out requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of management systems, specifies that providing both services to the same client is incompatible.
