Explanation

Change management is a formal, structured process for requesting, reviewing, approving, testing, and documenting changes to IT systems. It reduces risk by ensuring updates are planned, tested in a non-production environment, approved by stakeholders, and rolled back safely if they fail - all before touching critical systems. Incident management (A) is reactive, addressing problems after they occur. Server clustering (B) provides high availability but does not govern how changes are made. Forensic analysis (D) is a post-incident investigative process, not a proactive risk mitigation strategy for updates.
