A CMDB Administrator is leveraging CI data as part of an Integrated Risk Management (IRM) implementation and the Entity Scoping process. The Administrator wants to leverage the CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard playbooks under the Run tab.
Which CSDM relationships are leveraged using the CSDM playbooks? (Choose two)
Correct Answer: A,D
The Run tab in the CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard focuses on enabling operationalized, risk- aware use cases, including Integrated Risk Management (IRM) and Entity Scoping. These use cases require organizations to understand what data is processed, where it resides, and which technical components are involved, rather than only service impact for ITSM.
Information Objects play a central role at this stage.
Option A is correct because Business Applications related to Information Objects allow organizations to identify what types of data (PII, PCI, PHI, regulated data) are processed by each business application. This relationship is essential for risk classification, regulatory compliance, and audit scoping in IRM. Without it, risk assessments lack data sensitivity context.
Option D is also correct because Logical CIs (such as databases, schemas, or data stores) related to Information Objects establish where sensitive data is stored or processed at a technical level. This enables IRM to trace risk from business context down to technical exposure, supporting control testing, issue management, and remediation prioritization.
