Abstract: In practice, assessing information security risks is difficult since available methods lack specificity on how to perform the assessments as well as what input should be used. Thus, the process becomes resource demanding with fairly large rater-dependency. An established way of facilitating rating processes is to weight objects against each other, rather than rating each object independently on an absolute scale. In this paper, we investigate whether such a method, inspired by the Analytic Hierarchy Process, can be useful for assessing information security risks. However, the new method did not result in higher inter-rater reliability or lower cognitive load. This result was true both for experts and non-experts, as well as among raters with different cognitive styles.
