IT Risk Management Plan
Every company needs to take risks to thrive, but not too much risk which could be catastrophic. Finding the balanced amount of risk requires identifying what opportunities (or threats) are present, understanding how significant each of them is, recognizing what action to take to smartly handle both opportunities and risks, and lastly, monitoring all of the above, including discovering more prospects and threats. All told, this is called risk management. Specific to the seven domains of the IT infrastructure, this lab will cover IT risk management.
In this lab, you will define the purpose of an IT risk management plan, you will define the scope for an IT risk management plan that encompasses the seven domains of a typical IT infrastructure, you will relate the risks, threats, and vulnerabilities to the plan, and you will create an IT risk management plan outline that incorporates the five major parts of an IT risk management process.
