Hybrid approach for risk assessment

Can we perform Hybrid approach (Service based & Asset based) risk assessment? Also, can we create the process /methodology document likewise?

Answer: ISO 27001 does not prescribe any approach for risk assessment, so you can adopt the one that better suits your organization, even a hybrid one. The same applies for the process/methodology. You can create your own, provided this one fulfills the requirements from the standard.

But please note that you have to verify if the benefits of adopting a hybrid approach will be greater than the complexity required to perform it.

For information about alternative approaches for risk identification, please read:
