Risk Identification Techniques Quiz

Risk checklists, considering checklists of common categories that negatively impact on projects, and building checklists from corresponding requirements categories.

Missing or inadequate functionalities, safety hazards, security threats and vulnerabilities, reliability gaps concerning critical features, information inaccuracy, poor performance, unusability of features, or feature rejection by users.

Risk checklists can be specialized further along the taxonomy depicted in Section 1.15, as shown in Figure 15.

<p>Risk trees organize failures, causes, and consequences along causal links. They are used to identify risks through component inspection and can be made more systematic by organizing the information in a structured manner.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Fault trees are used when the failures relate to safety hazards. They are used to represent the logical combinations of events that can lead to a specific undesired event, in this case, safety hazards within the train control system.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Threat trees are used when the failures relate to security threats. They are used to represent the logical combinations of events that can lead to specific security threats within the train control system.</p> Signup and view all the answers
