Basic Risk Terms
Explain impact, likelihood, mitigation, acceptance, owner, and review cadence.
Plain-language explanation
Basic Risk Terms is a practical concept page. Use it to align language before writing a workflow, policy, or review record.
How to apply it
- Keep definitions operational rather than academic.
- Tie the term to decisions people actually make.
- Use examples and counterexamples when confusion is likely.
Expected output
A plain-language reference note that helps users choose the right workflow, policy, or template.
Common failure mode
Recording concern without an owner, treatment choice, or review date.
