Risk Assessment

Which of the following possible scenarios related to implementing a new database technology poses the GREATEST risk to an organization?

  • A Application and data migration cost for backups may exceed budget.
  • B The organization may not have a sufficient number of skilled resources.
  • C Data may not be recoverable due to system failures.
  • D The database system may not be scalable in the future.
