Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) — Question 113

A rule-based data loss prevention (DLP) tool has recently been implemented to reduce the risk of sensitive data leakage. Which of the following is MOST likely to change as a result of this implementation?

Answer options

• A. Risk velocity
• B. Risk impact
• C. Risk likelihood
• D. Risk appetite

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as implementing a DLP tool is designed to lower the chances of sensitive data breaches, thereby reducing the risk likelihood. The other options, such as risk velocity, impact, and appetite, are not directly influenced by the operational changes brought about by a DLP tool.
