What are workarounds?

  1. Planned responses to identified risks

  2. Unplanned responses to risks not previously identified

  3. Responses to favorable risks

  4. New risks introduced by risk responses

The correct answer is: Unplanned responses to risks not previously identified

Workarounds are unplanned responses to risks that were not previously identified. They are typically developed on-the-fly in response to unforeseen issues or threats that arise during the course of a project. Workarounds are not part of the original risk management plan but are created on an ad-hoc basis to address the new challenges as they appear. In contrast, option A refers to planned responses to identified risks, option C refers to responses to favorable risks, and option D refers to new risks introduced by risk responses, which are not accurate descriptions of workarounds.
