In this domain we will cover fundamental concepts of IT risk management. We will discuss how risks links to business functions\, the importance of the three lines of defense and the role of IT controls.\nDomain 2 – Risk Governance and Management (15%): We will explain the structure of risk governance and management and how it’s used to set a direction for a business. We will discuss risk appetite\, risk tolerance\, and risk capacity and introduce the risk management cycle.\nDomain 3 – Risk Identification (20%): Risk identification is the process of spotting and documenting the risks a business faces. It is crucial because only identified risks can be assessed and responded to. In this domain we will talk about assets\, threats\, and vulnerabilities and how we can use them to identify risk.\nDomain 4 – Risk Assessment and Analysis (25%): After identifying risk\, the next step is to understand its impact on the business. In this domain\, we will discuss the different approaches to risk assessments\, how to use risk registers to document risks\, and the importance of risk aggregation.\nDomain 5 – Risk Response (15%): After risk has been identified and assessed\, decisions need to be made about the appropriate risk response. In this domain we will discuss risk response strategies\, control design and implementation and other response approaches.\nDomain 6 – Risk Monitoring\, Reporting and Communication (20%): The monitoring and reporting of risk play an important role in the risk management process. Indicators for risk and performance should be considered carefully and chosen deliberately\, based on their alignment with enterprise goals. Because of the changing nature of risk and associated controls\, ongoing monitoring and reporting are essential steps in the risk management process.\n\nThe instructor will provide a copy of the presentation materials (PDF) to online attendees\, along with additional materials prepared by instructor to support the course. \n  \nInstructor \n\n \n\n\nRamona Ratiu\nCybersecurity | Board Advisor | Adjunct Professor | Mentor | SheLeadsTech Ambassador\nMS\, CISM\, GSTRT\, GCCC \nRamona Ratiu is a seasoned cybersecurity professional with a focus on effective risk planning and cyber resilience strategies.
