Risks & Mitigation
  • Data corruption during power loss
  • Storage media failure
  • Timestamp synchronization errors
  • Interface communication failures
  • Environmental damage to electronics
FMEA Triads
Trigger: Power supply interruption during write operation
Failure: Partial or corrupted transaction records
Mitigation: Implement uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with sufficient hold-up time, use write-back caching with battery backup
Trigger: Storage media wear or failure
Failure: Complete loss of transaction data
Mitigation: Use industrial-grade SSDs with wear leveling, implement RAID 1 mirroring, schedule preventive replacement based on write cycles
Trigger: Network synchronization loss
Failure: Inaccurate timestamps affecting audit trails
Mitigation: Implement NTP/PTP time synchronization with redundant time sources, use hardware timestamping at capture point
