Which of the following risks could result from inadequate software baselining?
A.
Scope creep
B.
Sign-off delays
C.
Software integrity violations
D.
inadequate controls
Explanation:
A software baseline is the cut-off point in the design and development of a system beyond which additional
requirements or modifications to the design do not or cannot occur without undergoing formal strict procedures
for approval based on a business cost-benefit analysis. Failure to adequately manage the requirements of a
system through baselining can result in a number of risks. Foremost among these risks is scope creep, the
process through which requirements change during development. Choices B, C and D may not always result,
but choice A is inevitable.
