In this scenario, where a vendor-related risk from the mobile device division is assessed to potentially impact other projects within the biometrics firm's program but has a low degree of impact and probability, the first action the program manager should take is: C. **Add the risk details and analysis to the program risk register.** Documenting the risk in the program risk register is crucial. It ensures that there is a formal record of the risk, its potential impact, and its probability. This step provides a foundation for further actions and decisions regarding the risk, including communication strategies and response planning.
