Program Plan Intro

Single loss expectancy:

  • The expected monetary loss every time a risk occurs is called the Single Loss Expectancy.
  • The Single Loss Expectancy (SLE), Exposure Factor (EF) and Asset Value (AV) are related by the formula:
    • SLE = EF * AV
  • Introducing this conceptual breakdown of Single Loss Expectancy into Exposure Factor and Asset Value allows us to adjust the two terms independently and is related to risk management and risk assessment.
  • Asset Value may vary with market changes, inflation while Exposure Factor can be reduced by enabling preventive measures.

Annualized loss expectancy:

  • The product of the single loss expectancy (SLE) and the annual rate of occurrence (ARO) give annualized loss expectancy (ALE).
  • It is mathematically expressed as:
    • ALE = SLE * ARO
  • The important feature of Annualized Loss Expectancy is that it can be used directly in a cost- benefit analysis.

Draw a system/level-0 diagram for this scenario: You are developing a new customer relationship management system for the BEC store, which rents out movies to customers. Customers will provide comments on new products, and request rental extensions and new products, each of which will be stored into the system and used by the manager for purchasing movies, extra copies, etc. Each month, one employee of BEC will select their favorite movie pick of that week, which will be stored in the system. The actual inventory information will be stored in the Entertainment Tracker system, and would be retrieved by this new system as and when necessary. Example of what a level-0 diagram looks like is attached.
