The correct answer is C. Internal auditors perform a risk assessment to identify potential audit subjects as input for the annual internal audit plan. Data mining techniques are often used for exploratory purposes in risk assessments to analyze large datasets and identify patterns, trends, and anomalies that can help in determining areas of potential risk and prioritize audit subjects accordingly.
