Risk Assessment

Determinig the controls to protect your organization from threats and maintaining an acceptable “risk tolerance”.

Evaluation of Risks and Threats

The risk assessment process evaluates the likelihood and potential damage of identified threats, measures the individual risk level of each asset as they relate to Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (CIA), and then gauges the effectiveness of existing controls to limit the organization’s exposure such risk. Results help the organization identify which asset are the most critical, provide a basis for prioritization and recommends a course for remediation.

The risk assessment will encompass provisions that address both internal and external threats and answers the following questions:

  • What can go wrong?
  • How can it go wrong?
  • What is the potential impact?
  • What preventive steps can be taken to reduce the risk?
