ITPEC FE Morning October 2020 Question 60
ITPEC FE Morning October 2020 — Question 60 of 80
A software asset management audit checks whether an organization properly tracks and documents its software licenses — confirming that license certificates, purchase records, and installation counts are all accounted for.
(b) is correct: the audit verifies that evidence such as software-license certificates is properly retained.
Why not others:
- (a) Compatibility evaluation at installation time — relates to system integration, not asset auditing
- (c) Localizing failures via database partitioning — relates to fault tolerance, not license management
- (d) Evaluating the provider's organizational structure — relates to vendor assessment, not internal asset auditing
Key rule: Software asset management audit = verifying that license documentation matches actual software installations.
