Safety Cases / Assessments are unique to the system or service and provide a logical argument that a system or service is acceptably safe by design, and that this level of safety can be sustained through its operational life. The arguments are supported by objective evidence including risk-based assessments and are documented in a Safety Case / Assessment Report.
