The ISO 31000 standard
The ISO 31000 standard outlines the actions that are part of risk management:
The identification of risk is essential to achieving our goals.
Risk analysis Analyzing the nature of risks, their origins and ways they can be reduced.
Risk assessment: Comparing risk analysis results with risk-related risk factors, to determine whether residual risk is acceptable.
Risk treatment: altering the likelihood and magnitude of negative consequences, both positive and negative for a net increase in benefit. See Guidelines for auditing management systems for more.

Setting the context: This activity isn't covered in prior descriptions of risk management. It involves defining and documenting the objectives of the organization as well as the risk assessment criteria. The context comprises external elements (regulatory environment as well as market conditions and stakeholder expectations) as well as internal components (the organization's governance, culture, standards and rules and capabilities, current contracts, worker expectations information systems, etc. ).

Monitoring and review: This task consists of measuring risk management performance against various indicators that are regularly reviewed to determine if they are appropriate. It involves checking for deviations from the risk management plan, checking whether the risk management framework, policy and plan are still in place considering the organizations' internal and external contexts as well as reporting on risk improvement of the risk management strategy and how it is whether the risk management plan is being adhered to, and reviewing the effectiveness of the risk management framework.
