Threats

Threats are dangers or problems for the organization, which can be kept general or be formulated in more detail. They can be assigned to a gap in the course of gap analyses or when recording review results. The assignment to the gap then creates a relationship between the threat and a risk/opportunity. As with gaps, the relationship between threats and risks/opportunities can also be created manually.
