Abstract: Risk element information indicating risk elements is acquired. An asset capable of becoming a fault due to a risk element indicated in the risk element information, and a fault probability that the asset becomes the fault are specified based on static configuration information. A risk model in which the asset capable of becoming the fault and the fault probability are associated is generated in advance. In response to a designated input, an one asset to be evaluated is specified as an evaluation target asset, based on the designated input. A risk model related to the evaluation target asset is specified. A risk evaluation value being an index indicating a risk of the evaluation target asset is calculated based on the fault probability of the evaluation target asset and the static configuration information. The risk evaluation value of the evaluation target asset is associated with the asset of the risk model.

Abstract: When a plurality of services are enjoyed by a single terminal, a communication regulation caused by another service has influence on enjoyment of another service. A service provider and a mobile communication provider are affiliated with each other and newly provide an affiliated service in which a communication fee for a service use is borne by the service provider to a user. Conventional communication and affiliated service communication are performed on a single communication line of the user together, and communication control is performed in units of services such that a service quality of the affiliated service is maintained. It is implemented by affiliating a communication log and contract information between business operators and performing communication identification using user information at the time of a contract as a key.
