CISM study material · question 369 of 1000

For a non-adversarial threat event, which two attributes of the event itself does SP 800-30 say the likelihood of adverse impact takes into account? Choose two.

  1. The adversary's targeting
  2. Its anticipated severity
  3. Its anticipated duration
  4. The adversary's capability
Show the answer

Answer: B. Its anticipated severity
C. Its anticipated duration

SP 800-30 turns to the event's own description for non-adversarial cases — how severe it is expected to be and how long it is expected to last — since there is no adversary to characterise.
