ServiceNow CIS-ITSM Practice Test 74
Question 730
An ITSM implementer faces this business situation: A privileged account request requires information-security approval. Which design or handling approach MOST DIRECTLY addresses the requirement? Select ONE best answer.
- Capture resolution codes and notes that accurately describe restored service
- Reuse relevant knowledge articles during incident diagnosis without ignoring currency
- Implement request approvals at the relevant scope with accountable approvers
- Distinguish request, requested item and catalog task records for proper status and reporting
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Implement request approvals at the relevant scope with accountable approvers is the strongest appropriate service management design for this specific original ITSM educational case: A privileged account request requires information-security approval. The main technical reason is: Approval gates should reflect item value, data sensitivity and policy, not merely the requester identity. The applicable concrete response is: Configure the authorized approver step before fulfillment. Validate the case by checking: The task cannot execute without the required decision. A tempting but unsuitable shortcut is: Allow a request to approve itself by reusing the submitter's role.
Incorrect Answers
A:That option concerns Incident resolution code and notes. Approval gates should reflect item value, data sensitivity and policy, not merely the requester identity.
B:That option concerns Knowledge reuse during incident handling. Approval gates should reflect item value, data sensitivity and policy, not merely the requester identity.
D:That option concerns Request versus requested item versus catalog task. Approval gates should reflect item value, data sensitivity and policy, not merely the requester identity.
