Question

consider a scenario that threat possible in a fiber-optic cable asset that is running between two buildings is being cut by a maintenance worker affects only the cable and the productivity for its cut, which might be only 20% of the organization's infrastructure. The asset value is $15,000. Calculate single loss expectancy (sle). $750 $3000 "$30,000 " none of these

Answer 1

Answer:

Risk management looks at the various possibilities of loss, determines what would cause the greatest loss, and applies controls appropriately. As the risk manager, you might want to reduce all the risk to zero. This is a natural emotional reaction to trying to solve risk

Answer 2

The correct answer would be

(ii) $3000.

The formula to find SLE is

SINGLE LOSS EXPECTANCY

= Asset value * EF

In the given scenario:-

Asset value is $15000

EF is 20%

Then

SLE = $15000*20%

= 3000

SLE = $ 3000
