IT Risk Assessment

Performing risk analysis and risk assessments

Performing risk analysis and risk assessments is considered to be the first step in achieving effective site security management.

Your Challenges

Organizations in various critical business operations face endless security threats that can range from vandalism, theft, on-site security breaches, insider risk, and even terrorism. Concerns can be whether their crown jewels are sufficiently protected from various threat actors such as organized crime, industrial spies, malicious insiders or even hacktivists. These threat actors bring various threats forth such as theft of intellectual property, corporate secrets, financial information, and disrupting business operations.

Protecting organizational assets is critical and includes people, property and informational assets. People assets include more than just employees, they also include visitors, contractors, community and others that have or could have an association with business operations. Property assets range from building, machinery and utilities to operations, equipment and systems. Informational assets are computer systems, processes and confidential business and employee information.

The IT Risk assessment addresses the following aspects (based on ISO 27002).
