turvariskid

Turvariskid refer to potential events or conditions that threaten the safety, security, or integrity of people, assets, information, or operations within an organization. The concept covers physical security risks, information security risks, privacy risks, and operational risks, as well as regulatory and reputational consequences.

Common sources include human error, insider threats, cyberattacks, equipment failure, natural disasters, supply chain disruptions, and fraud.

Risk assessment identifies, analyzes, and evaluates risks using qualitative approaches (risk matrices) or quantitative methods. International standards such as ISO 31000 and NIST frameworks guide practice. A risk register documents risks, owners, likelihood, impact, and mitigation status. Scoring yields residual risk after controls.

Risk treatment includes avoiding, transferring, reducing, or accepting risk. Controls include physical measures (locks, surveillance), technical controls (access control, encryption, backups, patching), process controls (training, procedures), and incident response.

Monitoring involves KPIs, audits, and incident reports to track the effectiveness of controls and adjust them as needed.

Regulatory context includes occupational safety, data protection (GDPR), and cybersecurity standards. Trends affecting turvariskid include digitalization, remote work, supply chain volatility, and evolving AI-related threats.
