I bet the risk manager is wishing they had a risk management plan that could handle the unexpected. Maybe they should have consulted a magic 8-ball instead.

A is a cop-out. You can't just accept new risks without a proper plan. The risk manager needs to be proactive and address these issues.

D is the way to go. Escalating the new risks to the stakeholders is crucial to ensure proper communication and buy-in for the risk management process.

I think C is the best option. The risk manager should update the plan to reflect the new probabilities and impacts, and then adjust the response accordingly.

Option B seems like the most logical choice. The risk management plan should already have provisions for addressing any secondary risks that arise from the initial risk response.
