What is the role of a change control board in OIMS updates?

• A. Approve changes
• B. Deploy changes
• C. Ignore changes
• D. Collect logs

Answer: (A)

Change control boards govern what gets changed in OIMS updates, when it happens, and how it's carried out. They review each proposed change to gauge its impact on security, data integrity, and system operations, ensure there is proper testing, a rollback plan, and complete documentation, and then decide whether to authorize the change. Approving changes means giving formal permission to implement them according to an agreed plan and schedule. The board does not perform the actual deployment—that role lies with the deployment or operations team after approval. Ignoring changes would bypass governance and create risk, while collecting logs is a monitoring activity that happens during and after changes, not the board’s primary function.
