Threat Risk Assessment

A Threat Risk Assessment, commonly referred to as a TRA, is a protocol (a method and process) used in the field of Information Technology for bringing to light the dangers that a digital system is exposed to. TRAs are such useful tools in the hands of IT professionals that the Truth Beauty and Goodness Commission...

Conclusion


The basic steps of a threat risk assessment are:

  1. characterize the type of system that is at risk

  2. identify specific threats to that system

  3. determine inherent risks and impacts

  4. analyze and identify existing controls that may prevent, mitigate, detect, or compensate for potential threats

  5. assess the extent to which existing controls successfully mitigate the threats

  6. determine the likelihood of a threat occurring based on current controls; and

  7. calculate a risk rating based on a combination of impact and likelihood of occurrence.


Initial Planning and Statement of Sensitivity – establishing the scope of the assessment
and identifying the employees and assets to be safeguarded.

  • Threat Assessment – determining the threats to employees and assets in Canada and
    abroad, and assessing the likelihood and impact of threat occurrence.
  • Risk Assessment – assessing the risk based on the adequacy of existing safeguards and
    vulnerabilities.
  • Recommendations – implementing any supplementary safeguards that will reduce the
    risk to an acceptable level. 


Informal Threat and Risk Assessments
Intuitively, human beings make important, even critical decisions regarding their personal safety
and well-being on a regular basis. From simple situations, like crossing a busy street, to more
complicated problems involving financial security or health care, individuals assess the risks and
choose a course of action. Often these choices are made very quickly, almost unconsciously,
with little formal analysis.

At first glance, this minimalist approach to risk management might appear completely
irresponsible, implying a lack of awareness or even an unwillingness to acknowledge real threats
and vulnerabilities. This is almost certainly the case if the choice is entirely unconscious or
purely arbitrary. However, intuitive logic like this may be perfectly reasonable where the actual
risks are relatively low, in other words, where asset values or related vulnerabilities are modest
and the relevant threats are either non-existent or at least highly unlikely. 


The greatest institutions are the ones that have survived for generations because of careful planning by their founders.  Once they realized how important their cause was and how important it is to continue this work to benefit mankind, these wise founders began to lay the ground work and create the foundations for future generations to continue that work.

With great foresight, the founders of these institutions engineered their systems to be flexible and adaptable to changing conditions, and changing societal values, for if it were not for this flexibility, future generations would quickly fall away and the original idea would fade from memory.
