Previously, risk avoidance was a common IT security goal. That changed as the nature of the risk became better understood. Today, it is recognized that elimination of all risk is not cost-effective. A cost-benefit analysis should be conducted for each proposed control. In some cases, the benefits of a more secure system may not justify the direct and indirect costs. Benefits include more than just prevention of monetary loss; for example, controls may be essential for maintaining public trust and confidence. Direct costs include the cost of purchasing and installing a given technology; indirect costs include decreased system performance and additional training. The goal is to enhance mission\/business capabilities by managing mission\/business risk to an acceptable level.<br \/>\nSource: STONEBURNER, Gary &#038; al, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), NIST Special Publication 800-27, Engineering Principles for Information Technology Security (A Baseline for Achieving Security), June 2001 (page 8).<\/div>\n<p><\/strong><\/span> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Risk reduction in a system development life-cycle should be applied: A.
