Risk Assessment and Treatment

A risk is the effect of uncertainty on road vehicle security, expressed in terms of attack feasibility and impact.

The risk for a given threat scenario is determined from the AFR of the associated threat and the impact of the associated damage scenario according to the risk matrix (see figure below) by a simple table look-up.

There are five risk levels, one is the lowest, and five is the highest risk level.

Inspecting the risks per threat scenario gives a maximally detailed view. For a shorter overview, risks may be aggregated by threat, damage scenario, or impact category. In such a case, the shown risk is the highest of all associated risks.
