Selected Answer: A
Residual risk is the risk that remains after controls have been implemented. It represents the actual, current level of exposure an organization faces. By focusing on residual risk, you can prioritize responses based on what is not yet adequately controlled. This ensures that resources are allocated to the most critical, remaining threats.
