As organizations increasingly rely on digital systems, cloud platforms, and interconnected technologies, the risks associated with IT environments continue to grow. These risks include system failures, cyber threats, data breaches, and operational disruptions.
ICT Risk Management focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks related to technology systems and infrastructure, ensuring that business operations remain secure, stable, and resilient.
ICT risk management is the process of identifying potential threats to information systems and implementing controls to reduce their impact on business operations.
