Ah, the old risk analysis trick question. I bet the answer is something like 'All of the above, plus the ability to juggle flaming chainsaws.'

Gotta be C, right? Likelihood and impact are the bread and butter of any risk analysis. Unless the question is trying to catch us out...

D looks juicy, but I'm not sure financial damage and external visibility are the *major* factors. Seems like a trick question.

I agree, D does seem tempting but I think C is more relevant here.

B seems like it covers a lot of ground, but I'm not sure it's the major factors here. Maybe they're looking for something more specific to risk prioritization.
