Open FAIR is gaining significant acceptance among large organizations as a leading risk analysis methodology. The Open Group has published two Open FAIR standards :

• Open Risk Taxonomy Technical Standard (O-RT). This standard defines a standard taxonomy of terms, definitions, and relationships used in risk analysis.
• Open Risk Analysis Technical Standard (O-RA). This standard describes process aspects associated with performing effective risk analysis.

These two standards constitute the body of knowledge for The Open Group FAIR Certification Program.
