Control indicators may be triggered or scheduled in which state?

• A. Retired
• B. Monitor
• C. Draft
• D. Attest

Answer: (B)

In IRM, control indicators are the signals used to verify how well a control is working, and they’re meant to run as part of ongoing oversight. They’re configured to trigger events or to be scheduled for execution during the monitoring phase, not while a control is being created or after it’s no longer in effect. The Monitor state is where you set up how and when these indicators fire, how often they run, and what evidence is collected, enabling automatic checks and alerts to keep tabs on control performance. The other states serve different purposes: Draft is for building and validating indicators, Attest is for obtaining attestations from control owners, and Retired means the control is no longer active, so scheduling or triggering indicators would not apply.
