Given the required user interaction and privileged local system account and 
other operational dependancies, by what means did you estimate a "high" risk?   
I guess the basic question would be "how do you even classify this as a risk" 
in the first place.   Do you have some system of calculating risk or is it just 
a "gut feeling" type classification?
