Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

According to the PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) Examination Content Outline1, a secondary risk is a risk that arises as a direct result of implementing a risk response to a specific risk. In this case, the risk response is to contract an external vendor to provide additional capacity and expertise to the project team. The secondary risk is the confidentiality risk that the contracts department has identified. The risk manager should assess the secondary risk to determine its probability, impact, and priority, and to plan appropriate responses.This is part of the Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis and Plan Risk Responses processes in the PMBOK Guide2.Reference:1: PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) Examination Content Outline2: A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) -- Sixth Edition
