Understand the principles and terminology of risk; Probability,

Likelihood, Threat, Vulnerability, Impact , Threat actor, Risk owner,
Understand and describe the five key steps in risk management:
Identify assets Identify threats and vulnerabilities, Assess the impact
of threats and vulnerabilities on an organisation Identify ways to
manage those threats and vulnerabilities, Monitor and report on risk
management action, Discuss qualitative and quantitative approaches
to risk assessment; Quantitative approaches (such as loss expectancy
approaches (SLE/ARO)), Quantitative scalar approaches (such as
High/Medium/Low), Illustrate how the results of an assessment can
be presented; Financial impact, Dashboards, Heat maps, RAG.

Exploit, Attack, Describe and explain the following: Categories of
threats The concept of a threat lifecycle The use of threat

intelligence in an organisation. The uses of attribution, Discuss

vulnerabilities, especially those relating to people and staff.

Apprentices will understand how they can be exploited to attack an
organisation; Phishing, Social engineering, Blended attacks,
Describe common methods for finding vulnerabilities; Penetration
testing Phishing simulators Social engineering attacks

03 Risk Assessment: Standards 12 24

Explain that risk assessment can be carried out using several

methodologies or frameworks, but that it is better to select one
methodology or framework for consistent and comparable results,
List the common risk assessment methodologies or frameworks;
ISO/IEC 27005, NIST, Risk Management, Framework, OCTAVE, FAIR,
Compare common risk methodologies/frameworks; highlighting

similarities and differences. Demonstrate how to select and then
