ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

During a risk assessment of a payment-processing system, you discover that a single uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is the only source of backup power for the server room. The business impact analysis shows the application cannot tolerate even one hour of downtime. According to standard risk-management practice, which risk response should the organization emphasize for the power-loss threat?

  • Mitigate the risk by adding redundant power sources and fail-over capacity.

  • Transfer the risk by purchasing insurance to cover financial loss from downtime.

  • Accept the risk and document the potential outage in the system security plan.

  • Avoid the risk by shutting down on-premises operations and moving all processing to a third-party cloud provider.
