risk-based
Weighted by danger
Risk-based describes approaches that prioritize actions according to the level of risk involved.
A risk-based inspection system focuses resources on the highest-threat cases rather than treating all equally.
Risk-based pricing charges borrowers different rates depending on their likelihood of default.
The term appears frequently in regulatory, financial, and security contexts where limited resources must be allocated strategically.
