According to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, information security risk can be accepted as one of the four possible options for risk treatment, along with avoiding, modifying, or sharing the risk12. Risk acceptance means that the organization decides to tolerate the level of risk without taking any further action to reduce it3. Risk acceptance can be done before, during, or after the risk treatment process, depending on the organization’s risk criteria and the residual risk level4.
