Assessing the business need can help understand why employees are using free cloud storage services, what kind of data they are storing, and what are the security risks and requirements.

The chief risk officer, hands down! That's what they're there for, to manage and mitigate all the risks the organization faces.

Ah, the compliance officer, of course! They're the ones who have to make sure the organization stays within the rules, even if it means taking on some risk.

Well, this is a tricky one. I'd say the business senior management should approve the risk acceptance, as they're the ones who can best weigh the potential benefits and drawbacks.
