CISM - AIO 2nd -  The risk analyst studies different event scenarios and determines the impact of each. This may be expressed in quantitative terms (dollars or other currency) or qualitative terms (high/medium/low or a numeric scale of 1 to 5 or of 1 to 10). Sounds like B to me

Selected Answer: B
Information security risk analysis helps organizations identify and prioritize potential risks to their information assets. By assessing the likelihood and impact of various risks, organizations can make informed and cost-effective decisions about where to allocate resources for protection. This involves determining which assets are most critical and require heightened security measures based on the level of risk they pose. While the other options (ensuring appropriate access control, applying appropriate funding to security processes, and implementing appropriate security technologies) are also important considerations, the primary benefit of risk analysis is in facilitating cost-effective decisions related to asset protection.
