Explanation
SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) is a structured technique used in risk identification that examines an organization's internal strengths and weaknesses alongside external opportunities and threats. In risk management, it helps identify risks by asking how organizational strengths can offset threats and how opportunities can be leveraged to overcome weaknesses. Expert Judgment (B) involves using the knowledge of individuals with specialized expertise - it is a general technique, not one specifically structured around strengths/weaknesses/opportunities/threats. The Delphi Technique (C) is a consensus-building method using anonymous expert surveys. Brainstorming (D) is a general group creativity technique for generating ideas.
