Question 297

Following an IS audit, which of the following types of risk would be MOST critical to communicate to key stakeholders?

    Correct Answer: D

    Residual risk represents the risk that remains even after controls have been implemented. This type of risk is critical to communicate to key stakeholders because it provides a clear picture of the actual risk exposure that the organization faces after considering the effectiveness of existing controls. By understanding residual risk, stakeholders can make informed decisions about whether additional controls are needed or if the current risk level is acceptable.
