    During which phase of this lifecycle does the platform typically utilize an Inherent Risk Questionnaire (IRQ)?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    The Inherent Risk Questionnaire (IRQ) is utilized during the Tiering phase. It is typically sent to an internal business owner to assess the inherent risk of engaging with the third party.
