QuestionQ74

Information Systems Acquisition, Development and Implementation

Which of the following is MOST important for an organization to include in a software escrow agreement when it outsources software development to a third party?

Explanation

A software escrow deposit must be kept current as the product changes, so that the organization can obtain usable source code and related materials if the supplier can no longer maintain the software. An outdated deposit may be ineffective even if it is securely held and audited.
