Risk Management and Organizational Resilience

Step 12: Write the Risk Assessment Summary Report

Throughout this project, the necessary information has been assembled to provide your boss Maria with a risk assessment so that she may begin developing a long-term risk management strategy. This final step is compiling that information into a cogent “summary report” for presentation to company executives. This report will summarize the Vulnerability and Threat Assessment with the addition of the Risk Assessment just completed.

It is critical to provide recommendations to help the organization implement effective information risk management practices. Use findings in the previous steps to recommend risk management strategies such as least privilege, separation of duties, mandatory vacation, risk management technologies, and others you have found appropriate.

Remember, the recommendations included in the report should address all aspects of the research—business, economic, and technical reasoning for the conclusions.

Follow these Final Risk Assessment Summary Report requirements while writing the final risk assessment summary.
