Risk assessment approach

I’m currently working on research on the best option for Risk-Assessment (RA) Methodology and Templates. I believe that, a process based RA methodology would be more easily applicable in our case(For upstream Oil&Gas company) than an asset based methodology.

I’m ready to purchase the BCMS templates, but since the RA Toolkit is a separate product, I want to make sure that I find the right RA solution before I move forward with the ISO 22301 Toolkit.
Could you please let me know if your experts have any suggestions on alternative RA solutions? Or if they think the RA Toolkit can be edited to focus on processes rather than assets?

Answer:

The Risk Assessment Table and the Risk Treatment Table from our Risk Assessment Toolkit are based on the asset-vulnerability-threat methodology, but the columns related to assets, vulnerabilities and threats can be changed by a single column describing the risks in a process based approach. All other elements can be kept.

Please note that risk management documents are included in the ISO 22301 Toolkit , and you can take a look how this change would look like by seeing the free demo of our ISO 22301 Toolkit at this link: https://advisera.com/27001academy/iso22301-documentation-toolkit/

This article will provide you further explanation about alternative risk assessment approaches:
