A hospital recently implemented a new technology to allow virtual patient appointments. Which of the following should be the risk practitioner's FIRST course of action?

Any significant change, such as the implementation of new technology, introduces new risks and alters existing ones, thereby changing the organization's overall risk profile. The first course of action for a risk practitioner is to reassess this updated profile to identify, analyze, and evaluate these new or changed risks to ensure appropriate controls are in place.

Modifying the risk taxonomy might be necessary eventually if new risks don't fit existing categories, but reassessing the actual risks is a more immediate and fundamental step.

Increasing risk tolerance is a management decision that should only be made after the new risks are understood and assessed, not as an initial reaction.

Reviewing the risk culture is an ongoing activity and while important, it's not the first specific action directly related to a new technology implementation's impact on risks.
