Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 353
Which of the following methods is MOST likely to be used to assess plausible risk scenarios that could result in reputational risk to the enterprise?
Answer options
- A. SWOT analysis
- B. Controls gap analysis
- C. Quantitative analysis
- D. Qualitative analysis
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Qualitative analysis is the most appropriate method for assessing reputational risk scenarios as it focuses on subjective judgment and narrative assessments. In contrast, SWOT analysis primarily evaluates strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, while controls gap analysis and quantitative analysis do not effectively capture the nuanced perceptions of reputation-related risks.
