When I look at the world today it seems everything is about risk these days. Data breaches left and right (your private data is continually at risk). Systemic risk and failed risk management is what caused the financial crisis. Earth quacks, tidal waves, forest fires, global warming, HIV, Mexican flue are threatening humanity. The current state of the economy is threatening the IT budgets and as a result my job as an IT Consultant is at risk. There is a risk of a new wave of regulations in response to the world-wide need for governments to bail-out private enterprise. As a result the lack of IT risk and compliance expertise is a risk. Or am I just paranoid?
