Synopsis:

Information technology has become crucial in the growth, sustainability and support of enterprises. However, the pervasive use of technologies also incurs many business risks, anging from abuse, cybercrime, fraud, errors and ommissions. The objective of this course is to understand and analyse IT related business risks and and how these risks can be translated into an appropiate information risk management and security strategy and action plan.

In the course, will first discuss the basics of IT Risk, Information Security, and some of the general and specific standards and frameworks to address them. Next, we will elaborate on the IT risk management and IT security functions in an organisation.

Specific attention will be given to risk assessment methods, both qualitative and quantitative. The theoretical knowledge will be applied in a group project, where students will conduct a risk assessment in a real organisation, and present the results to the responsible managers.
