Risk Analysis
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) proposes five ways an organization can respond to risk:- Risk acceptance: Understand an identified risk, the potential cost or damage, and agree to accept the risk.
- Risk avoidance: Identify risk and decide not to engage in actions associated with the risk.
- Risk deterrence: Understand a posed threat, and inform the agent of that threat about retaliatory harm.
- Risk mitigation: Act to reduce risk.
- Risk transference/sharing: Share the risk burden with another entity, such as another country.
