Risk Management

What is it, and why is it important?

Risk assessment is the process of identifying and analyzing potential events that may negatively impact an organization’s assets and/or the environment. It is a vital requirement for all organizations, regardless of size.

Beyond being a compliance requirement, a risk assessment helps identify potential risks and implement measures to mitigate those risks.

In one shape or form, all organizations perform some kind of risk assessment, which, to meet compliance requirements, must be documented.
