Threat assessment has four major components, name them. (Choose four)

The 'Type' component of threat assessment identifies the nature or category of the threat, such as malware, social engineering, or a natural disaster.

The 'Mechanism' component describes how the threat operates or is delivered, detailing the specific methods or vectors used by the threat actor or event.

The 'Impact' component evaluates the potential consequences or damage that could result if the threat materializes, considering effects on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The 'Probability' component assesses the likelihood or frequency of the threat occurring, often based on historical data, known vulnerabilities, or expert judgment.

ALE (Annual Loss Expectancy) is a quantitative financial measure of risk, often derived from impact and probability, but it is an outcome or calculation in risk assessment, not one of the fundamental descriptive components of the threat itself.
