Explanation:

In computer security, a threat is a potential negative action or event facilitated by a vulnerability that results in unwanted impact to a computer system or application.

A threat can be either an negative "intentional" event (i.e. hacking: an individual cracker or a criminal organization) or "accidental" negative event (e.g. the possibility of a computer malfunctioning, or the possibility of a natural disaster event such as an earthquake, a fire, or a tornado) or otherwise a circumstance, capability, action, or event.[1]

This is differentiated from a threat actor who is an individual or group that can perform the threat action, such as exploiting a vulnerability to actualise a negative impact.
