Episode 76 — Identify business risk, exposures, and threats with clarity and shared language (4B2)
This episode teaches you how to identify business risk, exposures, and threats using clear, shared language that enables executives and technical teams to align quickly on what matters and what to do next. You’ll learn to translate technical conditions into business exposure, such as how a weak access model becomes fraud risk, how inconsistent data handling becomes regulatory exposure, or how fragile integrations become service continuity risk. We’ll cover how to define exposures in terms of impacted objectives, affected processes, affected stakeholders, and plausible threat events, then prioritize what to address based on likelihood, impact, and control strength. Real-world scenarios include risk registers filled with vague entries, threat descriptions that lack business context, and teams that disagree because they are describing different layers of the same issue. For CGEIT, you’ll practice choosing answers that improve clarity through common definitions, consistent categorization, and evidence-backed descriptions that make governance decisions faster and more defensible.
