The second day of the 2018 FAIR Conference at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh was all about digging deeper to show in action the benefits for which FAIR and quantitative cyber and operational risk analysis are known: clarifying communication about risk up and down the chain of command and showing the ROI of difficult investment decisions such as buying cyber insurance.

While we’re still learning the details of that massive data breach at Facebook – account keys for 50 million users stolen, and potentially wider impact as the same keys were used to log in to third party accounts – FAIR Institute Chairman Jack Jones says this incident, like others before it, exposes some of the shaky underpinnings of cybersecurity risk management.
