Selected Answer: C
This is the highest priority because it involves evaluating the existing controls and processes in place to mitigate risks associated with digital transformation. By assessing control gaps, you can determine where vulnerabilities or weaknesses exist, which is critical for making informed decisions about risk treatment options (Option B) and designing effective KRIs (Option D).
