Question 41 NECO • 2021 • DATA_PROCESSING • objective

An organization assesses the risk of a data breach using the formula \(R = L\\times V + I\), where L is the likelihood (scale 1-5), V is the vulnerability severity (scale 1-5) and I is the impact magnitude (scale 1-5). The original likelihood is twice the original vulnerability severity, and the impact magnitude is 5. After installing a new firewall the vulnerability severity is reduced by 2 points, and after staff training the likelihood is reduced by 1 point. The overall risk score drops by 3 points. Determine the original likelihood and vulnerability severity, and then compute the new risk score.

Answer Options

A. Original likelihood = 3, original vulnerability severity = 2, new risk score = 5
B. Original likelihood = 4, original vulnerability severity = 2, new risk score = 7
C. Original likelihood = 2, original vulnerability severity = 2, new risk score = 6
Correct Answer D. Original likelihood = 2, original vulnerability severity = 1, new risk score = 4
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
Original likelihood = 2, original vulnerability severity = 1, new risk score = 4
