A risk that can prove to be the most detrimental to a company long after the original risk event is delayed loss. Delayed loss has negative effects on a company after vulnerability is initially exploited. Delayed loss may include reduced productivity over a period, damage to the company's reputation, reduced income to the company, accrued late penalties, and extra expenses to get the environment back to proper working conditions. The termination of an employee should be properly documented to determine if a later delayed loss is traced to that termination.
