Risk analysis involves determining the level of risk, typically in terms of the likelihood of incidents to happen and the consequence for assets. This can be done qualitatively or quantitatively. In order to determine the risk level, it is usually necessary to perform an analysis of the related threats and vulnerabilities. This also helps us to better understand what contributes to the risk, which is useful for identifying treatments. This chapter continues the running example of Part II by demonstrating a pragmatic approach to analysis of the cyber-risks that were identified in Chap.
