Detect and Review
Once you have identified the risks, evaluate them thoroughly. The impact, the gravity of the impact, the actions to be taken, if the management must be involved, etc.

The Options
Risk Acceptance – One of your control strategies could be accepting the risk. However, ensure you have enough resources, time, and budget to accept the risk.Risk Avoidance – This option will save you from taking charge of the risk entirely. Remember, you might have to tweak your project’s scope, plan, resources, etc., to avoid the risk.Risk Mitigation – When you undertake to mitigate risk, you are accepting as well as avoiding it. A slight change in plans is required to address it.
Which One of the Risk Control Strategies Is Right?
This varies from project to project, risk to risk. Bear in mind that every time you address a risk, you must face the consequences. So, ensure that the risk strategies you choose are benefitting you in some ways.
