C - Risk register is related to projects. While Business Impact Analysis covers the business as a whole which includes processes, systems, the basis for a disaster recovery plan.

Selected Answer: B
A risk register is a document that contains ranked and ordered information on the likelihood and potential impact of various risks that may affect business processes and systems. It typically includes information on both threats and vulnerabilities and assesses the risk to the organization. The risk register also highlights the effectiveness of existing controls (mitigating controls) in reducing the impact or likelihood of the identified risks. It serves as a key tool for risk management and helps organizations prioritize and manage risks effectively.

The document that is most likely to contain ranked and ordered information on the likelihood and potential impact of catastrophic events that may affect business processes and systems, while also highlighting the residual risks that need to be managed after mitigating controls have been implemented is a risk register. A risk register is a comprehensive document that identifies and assesses potential risks to a business, ranks them in order of severity, and provides information on how to mitigate and manage those risks. It typically includes a risk assessment matrix that ranks risks based on their likelihood and potential impact, as well as information on the controls and safeguards in place to manage those risks. While other documents such as a business impact analysis, asset value register, and disaster recovery plan may provide useful information related to risk management and business continuity, a risk register is specifically designed to provide ranked and ordered information on potential risks and residual risks that need to be managed after mitigating controls have been implemented. Therefore, a risk register is the most likely document to contain the information described in the question.

A risk register is a document that provides a systematic and structured approach to identifying, assessing, and managing risks to an organization. It typically includes information on the likelihood and potential impact of identified risks, as well as the controls in place to mitigate them. Risk registers can be used to rank and order risks based on their potential impact, allowing organizations to prioritize their risk management efforts.

While a business impact analysis (C) may provide some information on the potential impact of catastrophic events on business processes and systems, it typically does not include information on the likelihood of such events occurring or the residual risks that need to be managed. An RTO report (A) is focused on the recovery time objective (RTO) for systems and applications in the event of an outage, rather than on the likelihood and potential impact of catastrophic events. An asset value register (D) provides information on the value of an organization's assets, but it does not include information on the likelihood or potential impact of catastrophic events. A disaster recovery plan (E) outlines the procedures and processes for recovering systems and applications in the event of a disaster, but it typically does not provide information on the likelihood or potential impact of catastrophic events or the residual risks that need to be managed.

While the other options may contain information on risks and their impact on business processes and systems, they are not specifically designed to prioritize risks and manage residual risks after implementing controls. For example, an RTO report may focus on recovery time objectives, while a business impact analysis may focus on identifying critical business processes and their dependencies. An asset value register may provide information on the value of an organization's assets but may not prioritize risks. A disaster recovery plan may provide guidance on how to recover from a catastrophic event but may not prioritize risks or manage residual risks.

Selected Answer: C
A business impact analysis (BIA) is used to identify and assess the potential effects of an interruption to critical business operations. It contains ranked and ordered information on the likelihood and potential impact of catastrophic events that may affect business processes and systems, while also highlighting the residual risks that need to be managed after mitigating controls have been implemented. A risk register is an important tool used to identify, analyze, and document risks associated with a particular project or activity. It helps to keep track of all the risks encountered or anticipated during the project's lifetime. However, it does not contain ranked and ordered information on the likelihood and potential impact of catastrophic events or highlight residual risks that need to be managed.

I´d go with risk matrix, but guess what...CompTIA does not have that answer -.- So the risk register is the next best thing to use.

Business impact analysis (BIA) is the process of performing risk assessment on business tasks and processes rather than on assets. The purpose of BIA is to determine the risks to business processes, set criticality prioritization, and begin the design protective and recovery solutions.
