Locked In: Prep for CRISC is an offline study app for ISACA's Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control exam. It follows the exam content outline ISACA uses for exams from 3 November 2025, with its domain weights: Governance 26 percent, Risk Assessment 22 percent, Risk Response and Reporting 32 percent, Technology and Security 20 percent.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
54 topics, written for this app and organized under the outline's 9 subdomains, 1A to 4B, so that each of the 43 numbered topic lines ISACA publishes has at least one lesson. 108 lessons, two per topic: one teaches the idea and one applies it to a case. 270 original practice questions, each with a worked explanation. 162 flashcards and 108 glossary entries. 16 interactive scenario activities, four per domain, using sorting, sequencing and matching. A timed practice form of 50 questions in 75 minutes, drawn in the published domain weights. Spaced repetition that brings back what you got wrong, progress by domain, bookmarks and search.
HOW THE QUESTIONS ARE WRITTEN
The questions ask which step comes first, who decides, what evidence supports a conclusion and which measure informs a decision. Every wrong option is written for its own question and describes the same situation as the answer, so you have to read the case to choose. Each explanation says why the answer is right and gives a separate reason for each wrong option.
ANSWER ORDER AND ANSWER LENGTH
Each question's options are dealt into a stable per-question order, so the answer sits in each position about equally often. Answer length is measured for each question type as well as across the whole bank: picking by length alone finds the answer in no more than 32 percent of any type's questions, against 25 percent for a blind guess, and the release check fails if a length rule climbs further.
WHAT IS FREE
12 lessons, 12 questions, 12 flashcards, the 8 glossary entries that match those flashcards, and one scenario activity in each of the four domains. The free selection is fixed and spread across all four domains, so you can work in every domain before deciding whether to pay. Bookmarks, progress tracking and spaced review work in the free tier too.
