Mitigation refers to the process of reducing or minimizing the impact or severity of potential risks or threats. In various contexts, such as project management, cybersecurity, or risk management, mitigation strategies are developed and implemented to address identified risks and prevent or lessen their negative consequences. Mitigation measures may include preventive actions, controls, safeguards, or contingency plans designed to reduce the likelihood or severity of a risk event occurring, or to limit its impact if it does occur. Effective mitigation strategies aim to proactively manage risks and enhance resilience by identifying, assessing, and addressing vulnerabilities before they lead to adverse outcomes.
