agree  Irene Schlotter, Dipl.-Übers.: Keineswegs Zwischenfälle, und Bedrohung eher als generischer Begriff: Bedrohung (durch Viren, Trojaner) ... Ein eleganter Umweg wäre: 'drohende Gefahren'.

  -> Danke Irene, ok, Zwischenfall für Contingency ist etwas grenzwertig, das gebe ich zu.

agree  Marcus Geibel: mit Bedrohungen; für contingency wird auch oft "Notfall" verwendet, z. B. contingency plan = Notfallplan, etwa bei Ausfall des Systems o.ä.
