An Extended Risk Assessment Model for Secure E-Government Projects

Fuzzy model for risk analysis

The goal of this paper is to show how the concept of fuzzy logic can be used to establish a degree to which an investment project belongs to a class of risk. Also, the probability of the fuzzy event is presented and is ap-plied to calculate the probability of the fuzzy event “the project X is a good investment”. This process has to enable the decision maker to compare several alternative invest...
