Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ROI stands for Return on Investment and is a measure of how long it will take for an investment to pay for itself. This means that it measures the financial benefit (return) of an investment in relation to its cost (investment). Option A is incorrect as it refers to the probability of a threat occurring, while option C refers to the cost of mitigating a threat. Option D is partially correct as ROI can be used to identify and prioritize security investments, but it does not describe the benefits of those priorities.
