  1. 3.2.2[a]information security-related duties, roles, and responsibilities are defined.
  2. 3.2.2[b]information security-related duties, roles, and responsibilities are assigned to designated personnel.
  3. 3.2.2[c]personnel are adequately trained to carry out their assigned information security-related duties, roles, and responsibilities.
