Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) — Question 487

An organization recently implemented a machine learning-based solution to monitor IT usage and analyze user behavior in an effort to detect internal fraud. Which of the following is MOST likely to be reassessed as a result of this initiative?

Answer options

• A. Risk likelihood
• B. Risk appetite
• C. Risk capacity
• D. Risk culture

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Risk likelihood, as the implementation of machine learning to monitor and analyze behaviors can change the probability of risk events occurring. The other options, such as Risk appetite, Risk capacity, and Risk culture, are related to how risks are perceived and managed, but they are less likely to be directly impacted by this specific technological initiative.
