ITILFND V4 Exam - Question 142


Which is a risk that might be removed from a service consumer by an IT service?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BC

An IT service can remove the risk of server hardware failure from a service consumer. By providing services such as cloud computing, the service provider takes on the responsibility of maintaining hardware infrastructure, ensuring uptime, and mitigating hardware-related failures. This allows the consumer to focus on their core activities without worrying about hardware issues.

Should be C 2.5.3 / pg.18 As with costs, there are two types of risk that are of concern to service consumers: ● risks removed from a consumer by the service (part of the value proposition). These may include failure of the consumer’s server hardware or lack of staff availability. In some cases, a service may only reduce a consumer’s risks, but the consumer may determine that this reduction is sufficient to support the value proposition ● risks imposed on a consumer by the service (risks of service consumption). An example of this would be a service provider ceasing to trade, or experiencing a security breach.

D. Cost of purchasing servers. An IT service could potentially remove the risk of the cost of purchasing servers by providing a cloud-based or hosted service, where the service consumer doesn't need to invest in physical hardware. This approach aims to reduce the financial burden on the consumer, aligning with the concept of outsourcing infrastructure and cost savings.

This comes straight out of the ITIL Foundation book (5.2.3) and although A and B also seem right, the answer is C ("risks removed from a consumer [...] may include failure of the consumer's server hardware"). Answer A and B are risks imposed on the consumer.

An IT service can remove the risk of the cost of purchasing servers from a service consumer by providing the necessary IT infrastructure as a service, thus eliminating the need for the consumer to invest in their own server hardware. This is common in cloud service models, such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), where the consumer pays for server resources as needed without the capital expenditure of owning physical hardware.
