Title: Risk assessment for personnel security - a guide (PDF)
Abstract: Personnel security risk assessment focuses on employees, their access to an organisation's assets, the risks they could pose to the organisation and the sufficiency of countermeasures.
This guidance, which is illustrated using a fictional case study, aims to help Security and Human Resource managers to:
- Conduct personnel security risk assessments in a way that balances pragmatism with rigour
- Prioritise the insider risks to an organisation
- Identify appropriate countermeasures to mitigate against those risks
- Allocate personnel security resources in a way that is cost effective and commensurate with the level of risk.
