RISA (Risk Information Security Assessment)

RISA (Risk Information Security Assessment) is a structured process used by organizations to identify, evaluate, and prioritize potential cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. It involves analyzing how likely different security risks are to occur and the potential impact they could have on the organization’s data, systems, and operations. The goal is to inform decision-making about security measures, ensuring resources are focused on protecting the most critical assets against foreseeable threats. Essentially, RISA helps organizations understand their security risks in order to strengthen their defenses proactively and reduce the likelihood and impact of security incidents.
