Opportunity

A risk event that, if it occurs, creates a beneficial impact on one or more project objectives.

Key Points

  • Opportunities are positive risks that can improve outcomes such as cost, schedule, scope, or quality.
  • They are identified, analyzed, prioritized, and monitored in the risk register with a clear owner.
  • Common response strategies are exploit, enhance, share, and accept.
  • Quantitative or qualitative analysis helps determine which opportunities are worth pursuing.

Example

A supplier offers a 15% discount and faster delivery if the team commits this week. Capturing this could lower costs and shorten the schedule. The project manager assigns an owner and chooses to exploit the opportunity by confirming the order after validating budget and approvals.

PMP Example Question

During risk planning, the team identifies a risk that could reduce testing time by two weeks if a new tool performs as expected. How should this risk be categorized?

  1. Threat
  2. Issue
  3. Assumption
  4. Opportunity

Correct Answer: D — Opportunity

Explanation: The event, if it occurs, would positively affect the schedule, making it a positive risk, also known as an opportunity.

ICS/OT Cybersecurity Fundamentals — Security Built for Industrial Systems

Industrial control systems cannot be secured like ordinary IT. A forced reboot, aggressive scan, or incompatible patch can interrupt production and create real safety consequences. Effective OT security begins with understanding the systems, constraints, and risks unique to industrial environments.

This course gives IT professionals, engineers, operators, and security practitioners a practical foundation in ICS threats, zone and conduit design, risk assessment, passive asset visibility, and vendor evaluation. You will learn how IEC 62443, NIST CSF, and MITRE ATT&CK for ICS apply where availability and safety come first.

Eight reconstructed incidents—including Stuxnet, Triton, Ukraine 2015, Colonial Pipeline, and PIPEDREAM—show how attackers move through OT environments, what they target, and which defenses could have changed the outcome.

Watch the course preview, then build the vocabulary, frameworks, and judgment needed to take credible first steps in ICS/OT cybersecurity.
