Abstract :
The information society is becoming increasingly dependent on systems for managing and analyzing the risk to which its main information assets are exposed and having access to these systems has become vital for the evolution of SMEs. However, this type of company requires the systems to be adapted to their special characteristics and to be optimized from the point of view of resources required to set them up and maintain them. This article presents a proposed method for carrying out risk analysis adaptation, which is suitable for SMEs, set within the framework of the methodology for security management in small and medium-sized enterprises (MSM2-SME). This model is being applied directly to real cases, and therefore its application is constantly being improved.
