ANSI / ASIS PAP.1-2012 Physical Asset Protection APP Practice Exam

Evaluating the consequences of a particular outcome centers on impact. Impact measures how severe the effects would be if an event occurs—such as financial losses, injuries, downtime, or damage to reputation. It’s the aspect that tells you how bad the result could be, which is why risk assessment often uses the formula Risk = Likelihood × Impact to prioritize protective measures. The other terms describe different ideas: likelihood is the probability that something will happen, an incident is the event itself, and integrity refers to the trustworthiness or accuracy of data and systems. So, the term that relates to evaluating consequences is impact.
