Briefly describe the four steps of risk assessment

The four steps of risk management are: risk identification, risk analysis, risk response and risk monitoring.

1, risk identification

The important feature of risk is its uncertainty and potential risk, which people can't easily accept or understand. Therefore, intelligence and risk management is to identify risks first, that is, to identify and distinguish risks according to certain scientific methods. These scientific methods usually include: questionnaire survey, financial statement analysis, organization of relevant data and documents review, self-inspection of equipment and facilities, and expert consultation inside and outside the enterprise. You can use one of the methods for identification, or you can use several methods at the same time.

2. Risk assessment

Risk assessment is to use various probability and mathematical statistics methods to calculate the frequency of a certain risk and estimate its damage degree, including the direct damage degree, the personnel and property consumed to prevent and deal with the risk and the indirect loss degree related to the direct loss. Its purpose is to take different countermeasures according to the risks of different loss degrees.

3. Risk control

In order to control and reduce risks economically and effectively, it is necessary to adopt different means or measures according to different risks.

4. Risk adjustment

This is to check and evaluate the results of different risk control measures, so as to make appropriate adjustments to the original risk management system. This is an indispensable step in risk management. Through regular or irregular inspection and evaluation, the whole risk management system is continuously improved to obtain the best cost-effectiveness.

Risk assessment refers to the quantitative assessment of the possibility of a risk event affecting people's lives, life and property before or after the risk event (but not yet over). That is, risk assessment is a quantitative assessment of the possible impact or loss of an event or thing.

From the perspective of information security, risk assessment is an assessment of the threats, weaknesses and impacts of information assets (that is, the information set of an event or thing), and the possibility of risks brought by the combination of the three. As the basis of risk management, risk assessment is an important way for organizations to determine information security requirements, which belongs to the planning process of the organization's information security management system.

Matters needing attention in the process of risk assessment

In the process of risk assessment, there are several key issues to consider.

First of all, what are the objects (or assets) to protect? What are its direct and indirect values?

Second, what are the potential threats to assets? What is the problem that causes the threat? What is the possibility of a threat?

Third, what are the weaknesses of assets that may be threatened? How simple is it to use?

Fourth, what kind of losses will the organization suffer or what kind of negative impact will it face once the threat event occurs?

Finally, what security measures should the organization take to minimize the losses caused by risks?

The process of solving the above problems is the process of risk assessment.

When conducting risk assessment, several corresponding relationships must be considered:

Every asset may face multiple threats.

There may be multiple threat sources (threat agents).

Each threat may exploit one or more vulnerabilities.

Project investment risk assessment report is a process of analyzing and determining risks. In the field of international investment, in order to reduce the investment mistakes and risks of investors, every investment activity must establish a set of scientific theories and methods suitable for its own investment activities. Project investment risk assessment report is a way to comprehensively analyze and evaluate the risks of investment projects by using rich information and data and combining qualitative and quantitative methods, and take corresponding measures to reduce, dissolve and avoid risks.

The project investment risk assessment report is based on a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the target enterprises and projects, and objectively and fairly analyzes the investment risks of enterprises and projects from the perspective of the third party according to the internationally accepted investment risk assessment methods. The investment risk assessment report contains all the contents of investment decision-making, such as detailed introduction of enterprises, detailed introduction of projects, product and service model, market analysis, financing demand, operation plan, competition analysis and financial analysis. On this basis, the investment risk is evaluated objectively and fairly from the perspective of the third party.
