A system for operating a gas turbine engine to mitigate the risk of ice formation within the engine, the system including a controller arranged to control at least one operational parameter of the engine such that the engine operates in a safe zone; and, a processor configured to function as a determining module to make a comparison between values and determine whether the engine is operating within a safe zone based on at least a core pressure parameter relating to the pressure within the engine and a core temperature parameter relating to the temperature within the engine, wherein the safe zone is defined by the product (multiplied) of the core pressure parameter and core temperature parameter being above a safe threshold.
