use of audit trails and encryption, and providing rights of access for
patients.
,annualized loss expectancy (ALE)
The estimated loss from a potential risk event over the course of a year. The
following equation is used to calculate the annual loss expectancy: ARO ×
SLE =
ALE. Where ARO is the annualized rate of occurrence, an estimate of the
probability that this event will occur over the course of a year and SLE is
the single loss expectancy, the estimated loss that would be incurred if
the event happens.
annualized rate of occurrence (ARO)
An estimate of the probability that a risk event will occur over the
course of a year.

signature, that indicates the presence of a specific virus.
artificial intelligence systems
The people, procedures, hardware, software, data, and knowledge needed to
develop computer systems and machines that can simulate human intelligence
processes, including learning (the acquisition of information and rules for
using
the information), reasoning (using rules to reach conclusions), and self-
correction (using the outcome from one scenario to improve its performance
on future scenarios).
, audit committee
A group that provides assistance to the board of directors in fulfilling its
responsibilities with respect to the oversight of the quality and integrity of
the organization's accounting and reporting practices and controls,

and performance of the company's independent auditor; and the
performance of the company's

to
avoid the risk altogether. This is the most effective solution but often not
possible due to organizational requirements and factors beyond an
organization's control.
Bathsheba syndrome
The moral corruption of people in power, which is often facilitated by a
tendency for people to look the other way when their leaders act
inappropriately.

particular industry.
