Assessment
Threat number. 1
Threat title. Weak password on troubleshooters account
Probability. Likely
Potential size of Moderate
loss / impact
level.
Risk severity. Medium
Explanation of If one of the troubleshooters accounts were logged into by
the threat in unauthorised users, they would be able to change the game to
context. allow them to cheat. This might lead to players who play fairly to
become frustrated as they have put a lot of time into the game to
earn the items they have and if cheaters are finding hard to get
items easily, other players might not play the game anymore.
Threat number. 2
Threat title. Critically Endangered’s servers being overloaded maliciously
Probability. Very likely
Potential size of Moderate
loss / impact
level.
Risk severity. High
Explanation of A group of hackers might try to overload the servers for the
the threat in game. This could have a financial impact because the attack could
context. freeze the servers or even damage them. Elana would have to
hire people to fix them and get them running again as soon as
possible. The servers going down regularly could put off some
players from playing the game. This is because their experience
of the game is not very high, so they’d move onto a different one
instead.
