Abstract:	Many industry sectors look back on a downright success story in development and implementing risk and reliability analysis methods. However the application of these methods seems to be questionable to enterprises in the area of information and communication technology (ICT) even though risk and reliability assessments are prominent on company and superordinate level. Major causes of reluctance are addressed in the paper: sophisticated analyses are not in line with the allocated resources. The acceptance of risk analysis methods in ICT strictly requires the inclusion of IT security issues and associated standards. The full performance of risk analysis to support the ranking of hazards or threats and prioritisation of measurements is often unknown to IT practitioners.
