Optimise return on investment 

Present ROI trade-offs for investment.

Confidently understand and communicate your cyber risk in dollar value terms.

Comprehensive understanding of threat, risk and control landscape

  • Define cyber risk scenarios based on actor types and their motivations, MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques, key data types, as well as their related critical IT Services.
  • Analyse industry specific global threat and loss data to determine unique cyber threat environment and cyber incident outcomes.
  • Consult with technology and business leaders to determine consensus on the business impact of each scenario.

Quantify cyber risk in dollar value terms

  • Agree risk quantification approach based on standard Open FAIR methodology, industry loss data scaling or other customer requirements.
  • Leverage the HyperGRC® platform and optionally provide it for ongoing risk buy-down calculations.
  • Quantify inherent, current, and projected risk for the current cyber security program.

Determine optimal remediation activities

  • Identify the relative importance of each control change in risk remediation using control analytics modelling.
  • Determine the quantified risk impact of individual or baskets of control improvements and identify those with the greatest risk buy-down (or return on investment).

Develop Cyber Roadmaps

  • Consolidate existing IT and cyber security strategies and roadmaps.
  • Optimise the value of cyber security programs by prioritising the delivery of control improvements with the greatest return on investment.
  • Periodically assess the state of controls and quantify the level of risk buy-down achieved by your cyber program, to re-plan future changes.

Talk in the language of the Board, and optimise return on investment, without relying on subjective justification, or worrying about not having the necessary skills or experience.

Calculating, explaining, and delivering a quantified return on security investment is key to building trust with your business executive and external regulatory stakeholders. Quantifying the likelihood and total cost of cyber security risk scenarios, analysing “what if” baskets of remediation improvements, determining an optimal cyber resilience roadmap, and measuring progress requires expert knowledge, pragmatic approaches, and evidence- based frameworks.

Our risk quantification service can help your organisation understand the cost and significance of your various cyber security risks, provide a solid justification for cyber security initiatives and a roadmap for timely value delivery.
