Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) — Question 794

Which of the following is MOST important to the effective monitoring of key risk indicators (KRIs)?

Answer options

• A. Updating the threat inventory with new threats
• B. Automating log data analysis
• C. Preventing the generation of false alerts
• D. Determining threshold levels

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Determining threshold levels is essential because it establishes the criteria for when a KRI indicates a significant risk, allowing for timely responses. While updating the threat inventory, automating log analysis, and preventing false alerts are important, they do not directly set the parameters for effective KRI monitoring.
