Good Morning
For the 7799 certification you need to show evidence that the business
decided on using a particular technology that falls within acceptable
levels of risk. Remember the business defines the risk levels. Risks
must be identified, mitigated, accepted or transferred with supporting
evidence.
You cannot fail a company because of their choice of technology. In fact
is not even about the technology but more the management of the risk. My
advise to you is that if the business chose skype, ensure that the
supporting processes, secure configuration standards and acceptable use
policy in place. This will show that the technology is managed and the
risks identified. Also consider a readiness audit before you go for
certification.
