Hello all! I was hoping to get some input/clarification on the two terms I’ve seen some people use interchangeably, but I’m pretty sure they mean two different things. Risk Mitigation is putting controls in place to reduce or limit the adverse affects of risks, identified or likely to occur. Risk treatment is after the risk assessment, where you look at the identified risks and create controls to…treat them. So basically Mitigation is proactive approach that can basically be done anytime, while risk treatment is reactive, something that is done only during the risk assessment and after a risk has been identified. Thanks in advance!
