...INTRODUCTION Risk is defined as being the effect of uncertainty on objectives. It may be positive or a negative effect. Risk management is defined as being the coordinated activity to direct and control an organization with regard to risk. Risk management can also be defined as the process of identifying, quantifying and managing the risk an organization faces in regard to the management of office record. The objective is to maximize the positive effects of risk and to minimize the negative effects of risk. The Risk Management Framework A risk management framework is the ‘set of components that provide the foundations and organisational arrangements for designing, implementing, monitoring, reviewing and continually improving risk management throughout the organisation’. The risk management framework should include a risk management strategy, policy, a stakeholder engagement plan, and governance structure. Records managers should be aware of the risk management framework that exists in the agency. This is due to the importance of aligning the records management and risk management functions across the agency. Alignment enables records related risks and business risks with a recordkeeping component to be identified and addressed consistently. Alignment may be achieved by: • Ensuring that the risk management strategy includes recordkeeping requirements; • Aligning the risk and records management policies; • Regular communication between the records management and risk management...

...of IT risk assessment. To learn more about this topic we recommend taking the SANS SEC410 IT Security Audit and Control Essentials course, available both online and via live classroom training. 2 Introduction The fundamental precept of information security is to support the mission of the organization. All organizations are exposed to uncertainties, some of which impact the organization in a negative manner. In order to support the organization, IT security professionals must be able to help their organizations’ management understand and manage these uncertainties. Managing uncertainties is not an easy task. Limited resources and an ever-changing landscape of threats and vulnerabilities make completely mitigating all risks impossible. Therefore, IT security professionals must have a toolset to assist them in sharing a commonly understood view with IT and business managers concerning the potential impact of various IT security related threats to the mission. This toolset needs to be consistent, repeatable, cost-effective and reduce risks to a reasonable level. Risk management is nothing new. There are many tools and techniques available for managing organizational risks. There are even a number of tools and techniques that focus on managing risks to information systems. This paper explores the issue of risk management with respect to information systems and seeks to answer the following questions: • What is risk with respect to information systems...
