Determine Likelihood of Exploitation<\/h4>\n

Assess the likelihood of each threat exploiting the vulnerabilities identified in the previous steps. Consider factors like the current security measures in place, historical incidents, and external threat intelligence<\/p>\n

Evaluate Exploitation Probability<\/h4>\n

Combine the information gathered in the previous steps to calculate the risk level for each potential threat-vulnerability pair. This ismusually done using a risk matrix, where the risk is classified as low, medium, or high, based on the impact and likelihood scores.<\/p>\n

Tools and Technologies for Risk Assessment<\/h4>\n

Vulnerability Scanning Tools: Vulnerability scanning tools are automated software that scan networks, systems, and applications to identify known vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n

Identify Threats and Vulnerabilities<\/h4>\n\n \n \n
\n

This is the foundational level necessary for cybersecurity teams to function adequately within their country and collaborate globally. It establishes a basic degree of maturity, requiring teams to have a solid foundation in mandate, constituency, authority, and a functional incident handling process. Parameters are set at a level suitable for foundational maturity.<\/p>

Assess Potential Impact<\/h4>\n\n \n \n
\n

Determine the potential impact that each identified threat could have on your organization if it successfully exploits a vulnerability. Impact assessment involves evaluating the severity of consequences, such as financial losses, data breaches, system downtime, legal implications, and damage to reputation.<\/p>
