Risk assessment methodology and assets inventory

1 - He mirado los 16 puntos que se tienen que seguir para la implementación de la norma 27001 y dentro de esos hay uno que dice definir la metodología de evaluación de riesgos, la pregunta mía es ¿Qué metodología recomiendan a utilizar? (I have looked at the 16 points that have to be followed for the implementation of the 27001 standard and within those there is one that says define the methodology of risk assessment, my question is What methodology do you recommend to use?)

Answer: The most common methodology you will find is the identification of assets, threats and vulnerabilities, most because it was defined by the old 2005 revision of ISO 27001, and although it is not mandatory any more we consider it very useful in many scenarios.

This article will provide you further explanation about risk assessment methodology:

2- Otra pregunta que tengo acerca de estos 16 puntos es ¿porque no esta el inventario de activos de informacion? (Another question I have about these 16 points is why is there not the inventory of information assets?)

Answer: Listing all the assets is a mandatory task in the risk assessment methodology referred in the article you mentioned, so the inventory of assets is included in the risk assessment step.

This article will provide you further explanation about assets inventory:
