PgMP Practice Question

During a program to develop a new enterprise software suite, a key stakeholder from the quality assurance team identifies a significant new threat: a recently announced security vulnerability in a third-party library that may disrupt the integration testing phase planned for next quarter. As the program manager, which of the following is the most effective initial response?

  • Immediately escalate the threat to the program steering committee and request a decision on how to proceed.

  • Instruct the relevant component project manager to analyze and manage the threat independently.

  • Note the concern and schedule a discussion for the next scheduled program risk review meeting.

  • Analyze the threat's likelihood and impact, add it to the program risk register, and begin developing response options.
