Cilo 2 Criteria Unsatisfactory King Fahd Security

Portfolio Project 5.1 (Week 13)
HRVA
KFSC, Fall 2020
Instructions
a. Read through the asset assignment list, and find the asset assigned to your
section squad.
b. Meet with your squad section to discuss the asset you have been assigned to
analyze from a risk-management perspective here in Saudi Arabia.
c. Collaborate in your online research and analysis, but you must submit your
own report in your own writing where you present your own answers to the
four-part assignment described below.
d. Organize a research and writing schedule so you can submit this assignment
by 7 December at midnight.
e. Do not commit plagiarism. Any evidence that the cadet submits English
writing that is not their own will result in a zero grade. This includes copying
from other cadets, plagiarizing published or Internet sources, and using
Google Translate to generate sentences.
f. You will be graded on your ability to utilize theories, analysis, information,
and historical perspective that were addressed in this course. So, please
review the course material before starting to work on this project.
g. State clearly any simplifying assumptions you need to make in order to
perform reasonably rational analysis.
1. Hazards
a. Hazards: Consider your assigned asset and explain what are the three
most relevant hazards it faces, and the degree to which they are
related to each other. (12.5%)
b. Assessment: Place your selected hazards in a hazard matrix and
justify by estimating the probability and magnitude with valid data.

2. Vulnerability Assessment
a. Assets: Select the hazard with the greatest magnitude in Question 1.
Then explain with valid evidence and analysis the three components
of your asset’s system that are the most critical for securing the asset
from that hazard. (8.33%)
b. Vulnerability: Justify your selection of critical components by
explaining the loss that can occur should they get attacked both
individually and simultaneously. (8.33%)
c. Evidence: List the sources you used in the above answers using
proper academic conventions. Specify exactly have you used them in
your writing to increase the validity of your conclusions. And explain
what makes your sources trustworthy? (8.33%)

3. Risk Analysis
a. Technique: Describe the different options one has for calculating risk,
and explain which one is most appropriate for the hazard you selected
in Question 2. (12.5%)
b. Risk: Using valid data and historical perspective, estimate the
approximate risk to your asset, to include both human and financial
perspectives, should each of the three critical components selected in
Question 2 get attacked by the selected hazard. (12.5%)

4. Risk Management
a. Best Practice: Explain with valid evidence what the basic strategic
approaches are that the MOI should consider to reduce the highest risk
assessed in Question 3 to a politically acceptable level in Saudi Arabia.
(8.33%)
b. Mitigation: Within these strategic options, explain and justify three
specific tactics that should be prioritized for investment by the
government of Saudi Arabia. (8.33%)
c. Localization: What are some of the shortcomings that might limit the
effectiveness of these three tactics in Saudi society? Recommend some
ways to remedy these weaknesses. (8.33%)
