                Introduction:
                As discussed so far in this course, risk management is an important process for all organizations. This is particularly true in information systems, which provides                critical support for organizational missions. The heart of risk management is a formal risk management plan.
                This activity allows you to fulfill the role of an employee participating in the risk management process in a specific business situation.

                Scenario:
                 You are an information technology (IT) intern working for the Defense Logistics Information Service(DLIS) in Battle Creek, Michigan. DLIS is an organization within                the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA),which is the largest logistics combat support agency for the Department of Defense. DLIS creates, manages, and disseminates                logistics information to military and government customers using the latest
                technology.

                Senior management at DLIS decided that the existing risk management plan for the organization is out of date, and that a new risk management plan must be                developed. Because of the importance of risk management to the organization, senior management is committed to and supportive of the project to develop a new plan.                You have been assigned to develop this new plan.

                Project Part 1
                Project Part 1 Task 1: Draft Risk Management Plan

                Project Part 1 Task 2: Risk Assessment Plan

Because of the importance of risk management to the organization,                senior management is committed to and supportive of the project to develop a new plan.
