How to Measure Anything in Cybersecurity Risk

Key Learning Points:

  • Methods that feel good vs. methods that work: What the research shows and why we must abandon the “Risk Matrix”
  • A simple method for expressing uncertainty and risk in a mathematically sound manner
  • An overview of how we can improve methods further even when data is limited.

Level: All

Doug Hubbard will present how flaws in the most popular risk assessment methods in cybersecurity may be the biggest cybersecurity risk in your firm.  He will show research which debunks the “Risk Matrix” and the use of qualitative scores and scales in risk assessment.  He will also show how some simple quantitative methods, which have already been used by real organizations, have shown a measurable improvement in estimates and decisions.  He will also show how that method can be improved when you are ready for more even when data seems limited.
