Despite extensive work to build reliable risk assessment models in business, insurance, and finance, assessing risk in information systems remains a mystery, with few organizations understanding what risks they're taking with their information infrastructures. Understanding risk assessment models and how they can be adapted to information technology is a crucial component of risk management in business today. Requirements of risk assessment models will be considered along with the state of information technology and its ability to address these requirements.
