This is tricky! I feel like the product owner should own the risk since they are ultimately responsible for the product's success, but I could be wrong.

The product owner seems like the logical choice to me. They're accountable for the success of the new product, so they should own the associated risks.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The IT risk manager or information security manager could also be responsible for managing the cloud service provider risks.

Haha, good one Phil! But seriously, I'm with Candida on this one. The product owner has the most skin in the game, so they should be calling the shots.

Hold up, did someone say 'cloud'? I heard that's where all the hackers hang out these days. Better call in the ghostbusters!

This is a tough one, but I think the head of enterprise architecture should be in charge. They're the ones who oversee the whole system, so they're best equipped to handle the risk.
