What is a threat in project management?

  1. The level at which risk management is planned

  2. A condition favorable to the project

  3. A risk event or condition that is unfavorable to the project

  4. Responses to previously unidentified risks

The correct answer is: A risk event or condition that is unfavorable to the project

A threat in project management is any potential risk event or condition that could negatively impact the success of the project. It should not be confused with risk management, which is the process of identifying, evaluating, and controlling potential risks to a project. Option A, B, and D may be related to project management, but do not accurately describe what a threat is. Overall, a threat is an undesired event or situation that can hinder progress or create challenges for a project.
