Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) are metrics used to provide early signals of increasing risk exposures in various areas of an organization. KRIs help organizations detect potential issues before they become actual problems, allowing for proactive risk management and mitigation. This makes them most helpful in preventing risk events from materializing.

Here's how the other options compare:

A. Maintaining the risk register: Important for documentation and tracking known risks, but it is more about record-keeping than prevention.

B. Reviewing and analyzing security incidents: Valuable for reactive analysis and improving future defenses, but it addresses risks after they have occurred.

D. Prioritizing and tracking issues: Useful for managing known issues, not for early identification or preventing potential risks.
