Can Risk Assessment be automated?

Risk assessment requires a lot of analysis and evaluation work to be done, and today most of these activities cannot be simply automated, because some decisions require a human feeling and perception of the business environment that a machine cannot properly evaluate. However, some activities you can make use of automated tools are:

• collect data from existing databases (e.g. to help identity assets if an asset-threat-vulnerability risk assessment approach is used)
• compare data gathered with risk level limits to warn about risks that require further analysis
• organize and present data for decision making.
