MANAGEMENT OF WATER SERVICE DELIVERY

RISKQ

A vulnerability/risk assessment is a step by step evaluation that aims to identify vulnerabilities/risks and, the ability to reduce these vulnerabilities/risks through corrective actions. An effective vulnerability/risk assessment identifies critical business aspects (e.g. processes, assets). The vulnerability/risk assessment provides a framework for developing vulnerability/risk reduction options and determining associated costs to enable this.

RISKQ HAS BEEN DEVELOPED WITH THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING ASSISTANCE WITH:

• Identifying and understanding vulnerabilities and risks
• Prioritising, planning and implementing measures to control and manage these vulnerabilities and risks

RISKQ ALLOWS USERS TO CONDUCT BOTH VULNERABILITY AND/OR RISK ASSESSMENTS:

• Vulnerability assessment: is an assessment of an exploitable weakness or deficiency (i.e. the assessment of probability or likelihood of a threat or challenge occurring).
