Risk Assessment

This is the fundamental first step in managing an organisation's risk. A risk assessment can take the form of a short BIA (Business Impact Assessment) or a full risk assessment of a specific business area. IRM risk managers have a track record of conducting various levels of risk assessment across diverse environments. Examples of our past work include:

• A review of a bank's entire security organisation
• A risk assessment of the entire ground/air/ground communications system for European air traffic control
• A risk assessment of weather forecasting arrays
• Various aspects of outsourcing contracts
• Developing and implementing information security policies across many organisations

IRM consultants also have extensive experience and expertise in carrying out comparative risk assessments for clients to determine the relative risk levels of:

• Competing technologies
• Different security solutions
• Alternative hosting sites
