Title: Explain why organizations need to manage risk.
Course: Cybersecurity Fundamentals (10302-I) > Section: Exploring Cybersecurity Fundamentals

Explanation should include the following:

- Unmanaged risk can cause loss.
- Every organization is vulnerable to common and unique types of threats.
- Organizations must identify vulnerable areas, along with the potential for actual threats, so they can plan operations to reduce the effects of those threats.
- Organizations must balance “reasonable security” with reasonable access.

Because all threats cannot be completely eliminated, organizations must address responses to threats and plans for continuous business operations.
