Insider risk in security risk assessment methods is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. The value of preparation for assessment methods is only visible on the day it is needed. The programme takes participants through this aspect of corporate security practice end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. The programme works equally well for those formalising security risk assessment methods for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the practice within corporate security practice rather than to abstract argument. Improvement in assessment methods stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. They leave able to brief senior management on security risk assessment methods in terms that support a decision. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in assessment methods that were visible long before the incident. The final module sets out how progress on this part of corporate security practice will be evidenced six months later.
