Risk Risk is the possibility of suffering loss. It is the potential future harm that might occur due to some present action. There are three kinds of measures Probability- It is a measure of the likelihood that a threat will occur. Impact- It is a measure of the loss that occur when threat is realized. Risk exposure- It helps to measure the magnitude of a risk
Types of risks Technical risk: Includes problem with languages, project size, project functionality . Management risk: It includes lack of management experience and lack of planning.

Qualitative & quantitative risk analysis Qualitative Risk Analysis highlights the threat level such as High, medium and low and the likelihood of occurrence. So we prioritize our risk based on risk score. Probability from 0-1, the impact scale could be from 1-5 or from 1-10, it must be consistent in your company. In this case (Probability X impact scale) Quantitative Risk Analysis highlights a cost, a monetary loss, to a particular risk exposure. It’s quantifying the impact of the risk into currency and time in order to develop a probabilistic analysis of the project. In this case we need may be special software or models ( Decision Tree analysis)and a lot of data.
