Fábio Soto, Thanks for Info. I am a beginner and will appreciate all the inputs you can give. Bharat On Mon, 30 Jan 2012 23:34:12 -0200 Fábio Soto <fabio () andradesoto com br> wrote:
Bharat, That's the Microsoft Risk Assessment/Analysis methodology, and it is a good way to go. One thing I've changed about it is the risk calculation. We need to establish the risk criteria for impact and likelihood (financial impact, availability impact, confidentiality impact, integrity impact). After we calculate the impact with all that variables, and the likelihood (I use 2 likelihood variables), we can use the well known "Risk = Impact * Likelihood". Then we need to define the controls and the residual risks after implementing that controls.

Identify the different process / functions and then list assets under each process / function 2. Information assets are of different types (Physical, Software, paper, people, services, information) 3. Add Owner, Custodian and User tag to each asset 4. Add confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (CIA) to each asset This should be enough to initiate Risk Assessment, which will cover how well the sensitive data is protected. Hope this helps, Best regards, Santosh -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Fábio Soto Sent: Friday, January 06, 2012 10:44 PM To: 'Parker Zhao'; sfmailsbm () gmail com; security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: RES: Building an Information Asset database Parker, Great document, thank you ! To increase the quality of the document, I would use Availability, Integrity and Confidentiality to calculate the asset's business impact.
