• Availability
• Accuracy
• Authenticity
• Confidentiality
• Integrity
• Utility
• Possession
23

Risk Assessment
Qualitative Risk Assessment
Risk is defined in subjective, qualitative terms due to the uncertainty in likelihood and impact
values.
Difficulties
1.Evaluating likelihood and impact of risks qualitatively, without bias.
2.Same scales to be used in the assessment of multiple risks
25

26. Risk Management Strategies
26
Mitigation
Fix the flaw or provide compensatory control to reduce the likelihood or impact associated
with the flaw.
Transference
Transference is the process of allowing another party to accept the risk on your behalf.
This does not decrease the likelihood or fix any flaws, but it does reduce the overall impact
on the organization.
Acceptance
Acceptance is the practice of simply allowing the system to operate with known risks.
Avoidance
Avoidance is the practice of removing the vulnerability of the system or remove the
system itself.

27. Summary
• Risk / Reward Ratio
• Create a portfolio of risks
• Develop a risk management plan
27

28. • MOOCs and e-learning good for democratizing content but
lack experience
• Use Experience to motivate
• Immersive gamification to engage with audience better
• Provides a safe learning environment for managers
• Converting a 2x2 matrix into an immersive game that
managers can play and learn at the same time
