I'm inclined to go for C. Yet again, risk management won't go far without clear ownership of the risk, be it for ownership or response.

There is a question in the official ISACA question bank that is similar...........if I am not mistaken the answer was ownership.

Selected Answer: C
C. Risk ownership is assigned. The most important characteristic of an effective risk management program is that risk ownership is assigned. Without clear ownership, it can be challenging to ensure that risks are adequately identified, assessed, and managed. When risk ownership is assigned, individuals or teams are accountable for managing specific risks, which includes developing and implementing risk response plans (Option A), defining key risk indicators (Option B), and mapping controls to key risk scenarios (Option D).

Selected Answer: D
D. Controls are mapped to key risk scenarios. Reasoning: Mapping controls to key risk scenarios ensures that the organization has appropriate measures in place to address the specific risks that could adversely impact its operations or objectives. While the other options (A, B, C) are important components of a risk management program, having controls that directly address specific risks ensures that the organization is prepared to respond when those risks materialize.

C is the correct answer. It is documented in the ISACA CRISC QAE. Who the hell published this misleading junk?. Terrible is not the word.
