Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Change the global password policy for GRC users.
Why it's wrong here
This is a security setting, not a workflow trigger.
- ✓
Adjust the 'Assessment Trigger' logic based on the 'Criticality' score.
Why this is correct
This maps the frequency of assessment to the risk profile of the control.
- ✗
Require the GRC admin to manually assign tasks to users.
Why it's wrong here
Manual assignment is inefficient for large-scale control programs.
- ✗
Disable the self-assessment feature to force all audits to be external.
Why it's wrong here
This increases cost and reduces the scope of control oversight.
