Which activity below is NOT included in the information security risk assessment process?

ADetermining the risk identification approach

BPrioritizing risks for risk treatment

CSelecting information security risk treatment options

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The information security risk assessment process, as outlined in ISO/IEC 27005, typically includes identifying risks, assessing their potential impact, and prioritizing them. However, selecting risk treatment options is not part of the risk assessment process itself; it is part of the subsequent risk treatment phase. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it is not included in the risk assessment process.

This question is a real head-scratcher. Maybe the exam writers are trying to catch us off guard, like a bunch of mischievous hackers.

I'm going to go with option A. I mean, how can you assess risks without first knowing how to identify them? Seems like a no-brainer to me.
