    Hi, guys, just wanna know how do u distinguish the difference between control risk and inherent risk based on a scenario/event in a question.

    Like how do you know whether it is the control risk or inherent risk that is increased or decreased based on a situation.

    Thx~

    If the risk would exist no matter what controls are in place or how well they are implemented, it's IR. If the degree of risk is decreased/increased by the addition/failure of specific controls, it's CR.
