• {{historical_data}}: Any relevant historical data or past incidents.
• {{risk_tolerance}}: The organization's risk tolerance level (e.g., low, medium, high).

Instructions

1. Ask for the risk area, historical data, and risk tolerance if not provided.
2. Identify potential risks and vulnerabilities within the specified area.
3. Analyze the likelihood and impact of each risk, using historical data where available.
4. Prioritize risks based on their severity and the organization's risk tolerance.
5. Develop a mitigation plan for each high-priority risk, including specific actions, responsible parties, and timelines.
6. Suggest ongoing monitoring strategies to track identified risks.

Output format A structured risk management plan with sections: 'Risk Identification', 'Risk Analysis', 'Mitigation Strategies', 'Monitoring Plan'. Use bullet points and clear headings.

• Flag any missing information that would affect the plan.

Example Risk area: 'Supply chain disruptions'; Historical data: 'Past supplier delays in 2023'; Risk tolerance: 'Medium'.
