CISSP study material · question 97 of 500

A risk model is being documented for a new programme. Which items does NIST SP 800-30 list as the typical risk factors such a model works with? Choose three.

  1. Likelihood and impact.
  2. Predisposing condition.
  3. Threat and vulnerability.
  4. Risk appetite and risk tolerance.
Show the answer

Answer: C. Threat and vulnerability.
A. Likelihood and impact.
B. Predisposing condition.

SP 800-30 names threat, vulnerability, likelihood, impact and predisposing condition as typical risk factors. Appetite and tolerance belong to the risk frame, not to the model's factors.
