Abstract

In this chapter:

  • Creating a dynamic signature through emulation enables predictive risk discovery and prescriptive treatment of risk

  • The importance of taking a global and comprehensive approach to risk management

  • How the foresights gained through X-Act® OBC Platform help businesses monitor and control risk

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.

—Charles Darwin, English naturalist, geologist and biologist, best known for his contributions to the science of evolution
