Apply: Summative Assessment: Three Dimensions of Risk Management

Top of Form

Choose an organization from the education, financial, or health care sector to study throughout this course. Each week you explore different aspects within the IT division of the organization, including: 

• 3 dimensions of risk management 
• Potential risks during a server       database migration 
• Request for proposal for new web       servers 

Imagine you've been asked by the CIO of the organization you chose to create a Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, along with an accompanying summary guide handout, for the managers of the IT, accounting/finance, and engineering departments to inform them of the 3 dimensions of risk management (risk identification, risk assessment, and risk mitigation). 

The 3 dimensions of risk management shape the organizational framework of project risk management and determine the degree of freedom used to classify various realizations of uncertainties, resulting in a formalized systematic analysis of physical systems. 

Research information about the organization you chose to complete this week's assignment.

• The use of contractual service       providers for processing information systems applications such as a       payroll, human resources, or sales order taking 
• The use of an offshore company to       support your desktop computers 
• The use of a third-party governance       program to provide network support 

Note: Include multimedia such as graphics, pictures, video clips, or audio in a media-rich presentation.
