This paper describes case study assignment in risk assessment for a course in information security management. The instructor's approach in the course was to integrate various readings through discussion and assignments. The assignment described in this paper was based on an actual project and used in an information security management course taught in Summer 2010. Readers will benefit from the instructor's description of this assignment, which teaches the art of information security management by creating a hybrid risk assessment process that provides a practical, reusable, scholarly, and realistic exercise. The assignment proved to be a useful, hands-on practice that students were able to satisfactorily complete.
