SOFTWARE PROJECT RISK ANALYSIS AND ASSESSMENT: A SURVEY
Keywords:
Project, Risk, Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).Abstract
Risk is a condition that can result failure of software project and loss in terms of cost and quality. Some controls used to reduce the Risk. These controls can be identified as anything that finds the cause and help to reduce the risk like risk analysis and risk assessment. During software development life cycle (SDLC), Risk Analysis and Risk Assessment accomplished to make software more effective and efficient. Risk Analysis is the process of identifying, assessing, and reducing risk to an acceptable level. It defines and control threats and vulnerabilities. Whereas, risk assessment determines existence of risk and it can focus to achieve the software project objectives and minimize the threats. Risk analysis and assessment reduce the reason responsible for the failure of software project. In this paper a review on some method and proper approaches of software risk assessment and risk analysis will be presented. Some significant points could be pondered to reduce threats and vulnerabilities. Finally some Future research directions will be discussed to enhance the software project quality and to achieve the objectives of risk analysis and Risk assessment. In this paper the main objectives of this review is to present research workers contributions on risk assessment on different phases of SDLC.References
