This document discusses risk management practices and their application to intellectual property management and trade secret management. It presents frameworks that IP managers can use for risk management, including OECD principles, open-source standards, normative risk standards, academic publications, and commercial consultancies. The document analyzes how risk is addressed in the DIN 77006, ISO 31000, ISO 9001, and ISO 56005 standards and identifies 26 risk themes. It proposes a potential structure for an intellectual property risk management framework based on harmonizing aspects of these various standards and frameworks.
