Exam SY0-701 topic 1 question 545 discussion

C. Avoid Explanation: ✔ Risk avoidance involves modifying business operations to eliminate the risk rather than mitigating or transferring it. ✔ In this scenario, the company chooses not to accept responsibility and shifts its focus to a different market segment, effectively avoiding the risk altogether. Why not the other options? A. Exemption – Not a recognized risk management strategy in this context. B. Exception – Typically refers to granting temporary permission to bypass a security policy, not changing business strategy. D. Transfer – Would involve shifting the risk to a third party (e.g., buying insurance or outsourcing), which is not what’s happening here.
