Anticipate business risks and minimize potential damage
Risk management involves anticipating potential future risks and implementing measures to minimize the impact if those risks materialize. It is an critical practice for organizations to maintain stable economic and business operations.
What is Risk Management?
Risk management is the process of anticipating risks that may occur in the future and taking measures to minimize the impact if they do occur.
In the context of information security, risk management begins with identifying threats that could affect the information assets to be protected and evaluating the potential impact if those threats materialize (risk assessment). Based on the level of impact, appropriate controls are then implemented to minimize the risks.
Risk management is not something that can be completed with a one-time effort. In the field of information security in particular, if you are not continuously and proactively implementing measures, you will not be able to respond to new threats as they emerge. As the environment changes, ongoing review and improvement are required.
To continuously maintain and improve the level of achievement of security objectives within an organization, the PDCA cycle—Plan (planning), Do (implementation), Check (inspection/audit), and Act (review/improvement)—must be repeated on an ongoing basis.
