Risk appetite is "The types and amount of risk, on a broad level, an organization is willing to accept in its pursuit of value." – [NIST](https://csrc.nist.gov/glossary/term/risk_appetite)
|

|
||
According to the PMBOK® Guide [(source)](http://cybersecurity-materiality.com/):
|
||
- Risk Tolerance is the _"specified range of acceptable results."_
|
||
- Risk Threshold is the _"level of risk exposure above which risks are addressed and below which risks may be accepted."_
|
||
- Risk Appetite is the _"degree of uncertainty an organization or individual is willing to accept in anticipation of a reward."_
|
||
|
||
Articulate the risk appetite to:
|
||
|
||
- help guide risk and reward decision-making
|
||
- help to embed the right risk culture
