All organizations face risks to information and information assets. Many organizations seek to identify and control those risks, usually as part of a structured approach to information security risk management.
Risk assessment is at the heart of risk management, and the two together form the core competences of information security management. ISO27001 specifies a series of steps that must form part of the risk assessment. While a number of people in the organization will have a role to play in respect of risk assessment, these steps include a specific role for what the standard describes as 'asset owners'.

• Definitions
• Asset Owners
• Overview of the Risk Assessment Process
