    The CIO feels the risk is too high and wants you to develop an Information Guide Handout and Risk Information Sheet for upper management to describe the risks and management of the risks for the impending migration.

    Part A:
    Create a 1- page (does not include title or reference pages) Information Guide Handout to present to upper management, comparing risk management practices to use in the migration that includes:

    • How risk mitigation strategy planning can reduce the likelihood and/or impact of risks

    • The roles and responsibilities for risk management
    • Adequate references to support your findings, information, and opinions
    • A recommendation for the best risk management practice for this migration

    • The impact is how the organization will be affected if the risk does occur (i.e., low, medium, or high).
    • The rationale should explain the reasons for your probability and impact assessments.
    • The mitigation strategy should explain how each risk will be addressed.
    • There should be one risk information sheet for each risk identified.
    • Include APA-formatted citations when necessary.
