Risk analysis in the 1980's
Jerome Lobel · 1980
The application of scientific procedures to the study and evaluation of information and communications systems risks is still in its infancy. Hopefully, before the end of this decade we will see major breakthroughs both in improved techniques and greater utilization of Risk Analysis procedures by computer users. On the other hand Risk Analysis (also sometimes called Threat or Vulnerability Analysis) has real merit even by todays standards. The problem is that many organizations have still to be convinced as to its potential.
