Selected Answer: C
C. Chief information officer The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is typically responsible for coordinating between the IT risk strategy and the business risk strategy. The CIO plays a key role in aligning IT initiatives and strategies with the overall business objectives and risk management goals of the organization. This includes ensuring that IT risks are integrated into the broader enterprise risk management framework. While other roles, such as the Information Security Director and Internal Audit Director, may have specific responsibilities related to IT risk and security, the CIO often serves as the bridge between IT and the business, making them best positioned to coordinate the alignment of IT risk strategies with the organization's broader risk strategy.

Although 'coordination' is inaccurate, IT governance falls to the C-level (CIO), who is in charge of ensuring that IT supports the objectives of the organization. This responsibility is not the CISO's (chief information security officer).

You are clueless about upper management. CIO and CFO only manage and direct at the Corporate level. They don't coordinate anything.
