Explanation:
A risk event is being exploited so as to identify the opportunities for positive impacts. Exploit response is one of the strategies to negate risks or threats that appear in a project. This strategy may be selected for risks with positive impacts where the organization wishes to ensure that the opportunity is realized. Exploiting a risk event provides opportunities for positive impact on a project. Assigning more talented resources to the project to reduce the time to completion is an example of exploit response.
Incorrect Answers:
A: To avoid a risk means to evade it altogether, eliminate the cause of the risk event, or change the project plan to protect the project objectives from the risk event.
B: Accepting is a risk response that is appropriate for positive or negative risk events. It does not pursue the risk, but documents the event and allows the risk to happen. Often acceptance is used for low probability and low impact risk events.
D: Enhancing is a positive risk response that aims to increase the probability and/or impact of the risk event.

A risk profile is a summary of the nature and level of risk that an organization faces. It includes information such as the sources, causes, and consequences of the risks, their likelihood and impact, their interrelationships and dependencies, and their alignment with the risk appetite and tolerance. A risk profile is influenced by various factors, such as the organization's objectives, strategies, activities, processes, resources, capabilities, culture, etc. When an organization configures a new business division, the factor that is most likely to be affected is the risk profile, as the new business division may introduce new or change existing risks, opportunities, and uncertainties that may affect the achievement of the organization's objectives. Therefore, the organization should update its risk profile to reflect the current and potential risks associated with the new business division, and implement the appropriate risk management actions to optimize the risk exposure and performance.
