Which of the following BEST helps to identify significant events that could impact an organization?

Scenario analysis is the best method to identify significant events that could impact an organization.

Scenario analysis is the process of creating and evaluating hypothetical situations or scenarios that

represent plausible outcomes of various events or actions. Scenario analysis helps to anticipate and

prepare for potential risks and opportunities, as well as to test the robustness and resilience of the

organization’s strategies and plans. Control analysis, vulnerability analysis, and heat map analysis are

not as effective as scenario analysis, because they focus on the existing or current state of the

organization, rather than the future or alternative states. Reference = Risk and Information Systems
