Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The most important consideration when selecting a SaaS vendor for a business process is whether the vendor's information security certification is issued for the specific scope of the service that the organization needs. A certification that covers the entire vendor organization or a different service may not be relevant or sufficient for the organization's security requirements. The certification should also include industry-recognized security controls, be issued within a reasonable time frame, and be easily verified, but these are not as critical as the scope.
