DS 10.1 Identification and Classification of Problems

Control Objective:

Controls provide reasonable assurance that any problems and/or incidents are properly responded to, recorded, resolved or investigated for proper resolution.

Implement processes to report and classify problems that have been identified as part of incident management. The steps involved in problem classification are similar to the steps in classifying incidents; they are to determine category, impact, urgency and priority. Problems should be categorized as appropriate into related groups or domains (e.g., hardware, software, support software). These groups may match the organizational responsibilities or the user and customer base, and are the basis for allocating problems to support staff.

Rationale — The process of managing problems and incidents addresses how an organization identifies, documents and responds to events that fall outside of normal operations. Deficiencies in this area could significantly impact financial reporting.
