During the course, you will learn more about topics, such as - The importance of Risk Management

We have stated in the previous section that risk management is a process that involves three distinct processes which are: assessing the risks, mitigating the risks and evaluating the risks.

Risk management is an important factor for the survival and growth of any organisation or business because it allows IT managers and upper management to balance the operational costs and economic costs of protective measures. By carrying out effective risk management, they can achieve gains in mission capability by protecting the IT systems and data that the support the mission (or missions) of the organisation.

In every well-established organisation, senior management should ensure that the organisation possesses the skills, strengths and capabilities required to accomplish its mission. Before an organisation can achieve its mission, it must first face a number of real-world threats and be able to mitigate those threats in order to achieve its mission. It is the task of the mission owners (i.e. the organisation’s senior management) to determine the security capabilities that their IT systems must have in order to provide the desired level of mission support in face of real-world threats. This is not always an easy task, because most organisations will have relatively tight budgets for IT security. This means that any spending related to IT security should be thoroughly reviewed to make sure money is being spent efficiently.

Note that risk management is not unique to the IT environment only. It is applied in everybody’s daily lives such as in home security systems whereby a person would invest on a home security system to protect their belongings.
