Business processes represent the operational capabilities
of an organization. In order to ensure process continuity,
the effective management of risk becomes an area
of key concern. In this paper we propose an approach for
supporting risk identification with the use of higher-level
organizational models. We provide some intuitive metrics
for extracting measures of actor criticality, and vulnerability
from organizational models. This helps direct
risk management to areas of critical importance within
organization models. Additionally, the information can be
used to assess alternative organizational structures in
domains where risk mitigation is crucial. At the process
level, these measures can be used to help direct improvements
to the robustness and failsafe capabilities of critical
or vulnerable processes. We believe our novel approach,
will provide added benefits when used with other approaches
to risk management during business process
management, that do not reference the greater organizational
context during risk assessment.
