BIMCO Ch2: Identify Threats

BIMCO Cyber Security BIMCO-2.1: Threat actors

When identifying threats, consider each potential actor's capability, opportunity and intent, then weigh threats against vulnerabilities to judge likelihood, which with impact gives risk. Actors range from accidental ones (for example someone inserting an infected USB) to activists including disgruntled staff, criminals, opportunists, states and state-sponsored groups, and terrorists, each with typical motives such as money, espionage, disruption, revenge, reputation or political aims.
