Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Select risk response, then develop risk treatment plan, then obtain approval, then implement the plan, then monitor and review.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because risk treatment must start with selecting the appropriate response (e.g., mitigate, transfer, accept, avoid), then planning how to execute it, obtaining formal approval, implementing the controls, and finally monitoring their effectiveness to ensure the risk is managed.
- ✗
Select risk response, then obtain approval, then develop risk treatment plan, then implement the plan, then monitor and review.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because approval should come after the treatment plan is developed, not before. You cannot approve a plan that hasn't been created yet.
- ✗
Develop risk treatment plan, then select risk response, then obtain approval, then implement the plan, then monitor and review.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must first decide the risk response (what to do) before creating a detailed plan. Developing a plan without knowing the chosen response is illogical.
- ✗
Select risk response, then develop risk treatment plan, then implement the plan, then obtain approval, then monitor and review.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because implementation should occur only after the plan has been approved by management. Implementing before approval risks wasting resources on unapproved actions.
