The NRTSAPD Risk Assessment methodology offers two key advantages over other risk assessments. The first advantage is that the NRTSAPD risk assessment methodology provides management with a simple, quick, and easy to use risk assessment methodology based on an organizational mission critical asset priority. The second advantage of using this NRTSAPD risk assessment is to integrate several organizational databases such as network helpdesk, asset management, Intrusion Detection System (IDS), Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), firewall and incident response report databases with the management's decision on the mission critical asset priorities. Having the most current asset management with the integrated security incident response databases, the management asset priority driven risk assessment would be answered in a near real time or as current as the asset management inventory; which can sometimes be scanned in real time. Consequently, it produces a realistic Information Systems (IS) production environment risk assessment report in a near real time manner.
