The application risk profile should be updated when reviewing functional requirements. This will help to identify and assess the potential risks that may arise from the changes to the application, and to plan and implement appropriate risk responses. Updating the application risk profile at this stage will also help to ensure that the changes are aligned with the organization's objectives, policies, and standards, and that they meet the stakeholders' expectations and needs. Updating the application risk profile after user acceptance testing, upon release to production, or during backlog scheduling are not the best points to update the risk profile, as they may be too late or too early to capture the relevant risks and their impacts.

A risk profile is a summary of the key risks that affect an organization, a business unit, a process, or a project.
A risk profile can help stakeholders understand the current and potential exposure to various sources of uncertainty, and prioritize the risk response accordingly. Classification of risk profiles is the process of grouping and categorizing risks based on common characteristics, such as source, impact, likelihood, or response strategy. Classification of risk profiles can help communicate risk assessment results to stakeholders by providing a clear and consistent way of presenting and comparing risks across different domains, levels, or perspectives. Classification of risk profiles can also help identify patterns, trends, and interrelationships among risks, and facilitate the allocation of resources and responsibilities for risk management.

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Once the set of risk scenarios is defined, it can be used for risk analysis. In risk analysis, likelihood and impact of the scenarios are assessed. Important components of this assessment are the risk factors.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Risk mitigation is the latter step after analyzing risk.
B: Risk monitoring is the latter step after risk analysis and risk mitigation.
C: Risk analysis comes under risk management, therefore management is a generalized term, and is not the best answer for this question.
