In this three-day course, participants learn to perform information security risk assessments using the Operationally Critical Threat, Asset, and Vulnerability Evaluation (OCTAVE) approach. The OCTAVE approach provides organizations a comprehensive methodology that focuses on information assets in their operational contexts. Risks are identified and analyzed based on where they originate—at the points where information is stored, transported, and processed. By focusing on operational risks to information, participants learn to view risk assessment in the context the organization's strategic objectives and risk tolerances.
