Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer
According to ISO/IEC 27001 guidelines, any significant changes to the scope of the ISMS, such as a merger, must be communicated to the certification body. This ensures that the certification remains valid and that all locations and processes are included in the scope. The certification body will then decide the appropriate actions to incorporate the new entity into the existing certification.
