Week 8- emerging risks

[ThandolwenkosiM]

Good day 

Please assist in my business unit. We have the following risks:

1. Technological disruptions due to AI misuse, cyber-attacks, and because we are using donor funding, we do not have adequate funding resources to upgrade technology or procure more advanced systems to mitigate the risk or enhance innovation and growth.

My question: What is the appropriate and more attainable response to the above risk, instead of just mentioning the upgrade of the system, given the current state of the economy, it is not possible.?

2 We have geopolitical instability, the change in policy by the USA government administration has reduced the availability of donor funds, we could have done scenario planning on our risk assessment strategy to be well prepared for the worst-case scenario, but what is the mitigating factor or risk treatment?

other option is to look for funding partners in other developed countries, but how practical is this point, knowing that the USA provides significant funding to the Southern Africa region for health programmes

However, I am looking for practical mitigating factors, not a wish list. What would be the practical, possible and achievable risk response or treatment to the above-identified risk?

Thank you

Kind regards

Hi @ThandolwenkosiM ...

You may not have realized this, but you've posted this content in the global Canvas Community website.  Canvas is a LMS (Learning Management System) created by Instructure.  We here in the Community can help answer general questions about the Canvas LMS, but not about what you've posted above.  Might you have wanted to post this content in a course you are taking at your school that uses Canvas as their LMS?  If so, I'd direct you to the documentation outlined here: Student Guide - Instructure Community.

I hope this will be of some help to you.  Sing out if you have any questions about this...thanks!
