Report on the current risk level of the data centre both quantitative and qualitative 5. Anticipate and minimise potential financial impacts 6. Understand the options for handling risk 7. Continuously monitor and review the status of risk present in the data centre 8. Reduce the frequency and magnitude of incidents 9. Detect and respond to events when they occur 10. Meet regulatory and compliance requirements 11. Support certification processes such as ISO/IEC 27001 12. Support overall corporate and IT governance
