Information technology-related risks

Admittedly, there are other approaches in order to identify weaknesses of IT systems or to assess risks, e.g. COBIT (Control OBjectives for Information and related Technology) created by ISACA (Iifformation Systems Audit and Control Association) and MEHARI 2007 (MEthode HArmonisee d Analyse de Risque), which is an information risk analysis and management methodology developed by CLUSIF (Club de la securite de I information francais). However, these methods do not use standard RA methods, like FMEA, and are considered to be cumbersome.

On knowledge/information, RC-GC commits signatories to continuously improve health, safety and environment (HSE) knowledge and performance of technologies, processes and products provide help-assistance across the value chain share best practices through an information network increase dialogue and partnership and help extend Responsible Care across the value chain. GPS recommends measures to periodically re-assess chemicals risk - using new and additional information participate in scientific HSE-related research improve the flow of hazard and safety information across the value chain and ensure public access to product stewardship information. 

The use of chemical aids and technologies to stabilize lipids also represents a need to evaluate the balance between positive attributes that may reduce the risk of exposure to dietary oxidized lipids, or alternatively, negative consesquences, such as generation of tran -fatty acids derived from selective hydrogenation of vegetable oils. This chapter is intended to update the information on topics of toxicity and safety of fats and oils described earlier (6), as they relate to (1) natural consitutents of fats and oils (2) derived products of oxidation and hydrogenation (3) occurance of natural and pollutant contaminants and (4) additives used to preserve the stability, functionality, and nutritional quality of many constituents present in fats and oils.
