Prioritization criteria include consideration of the degree to which an asset within the function may be leveraged to achieve a threat objective

The possibility of an asset being leveraged to achieve a threat objective is added to the criteria for prioritizing IT and OT assets. It is important to consider that a threat actor may have multiple objectives and that those objectives may change over time or in different situations. Including additional criteria beyond those that are used for assets that are important to the delivery of the function will enable a more comprehensive prioritization of the risks to, and impacts associated with, IT and OT assets.
