Description: Network Risk Assessment refers to the systematic process of identifying, analyzing, and evaluating potential risks associated with network operations. This process is essential for ensuring information security and the integrity of network systems, especially in an environment where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated. In the context of network security principles such as Zero Trust, risk assessment involves verifying every access to the network, regardless of its origin, ensuring that only authorized users and devices can interact with resources. In the realm of cloud computing, it focuses on assessing the risks associated with using cloud-based services, considering factors such as data protection and compliance with security regulations. Additionally, network risk assessment must align with security regulations, which establish standards and regulations that organizations must follow to protect their digital assets. This comprehensive approach not only helps mitigate risks but also enables organizations to adopt a proactive stance in managing network security, adapting to an ever-evolving threat landscape.
