An organization evaluates three security threats with likelihood (L) and impact (I) scores on a scale of 1 to 5. Threat A: L = 4, I = 3; Threat B: L = 2, I = 5; Threat C: L = 3, I = 2. The risk score for a threat is calculated as \( L \times I \). The organization can implement a control that reduces the likelihood of Threat A by 50 % (rounded down to the nearest integer) and reduces the impact of Threat B by 2 points (minimum impact is 1). After applying the control, what is the total risk score (sum of the three threats) and which threat now has the highest individual risk score?

Answer Options

A. Total risk score = 15; Threat B and Threat C have the highest risk score of 6
Correct Answer B. Total risk score = 18; all three threats have the highest risk score of 6
C. Total risk score = 21; Threat A has the highest risk score of 9
D. Total risk score = 28; Threat A has the highest risk score of 12
Correct Answer
B

Total risk score = 18; all three threats have the highest risk score of 6
