In September, 2020, our IBM X-Force IRIS security analysis group began tracking strange phishing attacks targeting suppliers of HVAC equipment and services.
The generally accepted model for risk is that it is a function of frequency (some refer to it as probability or likelihood, i.e., how often the loss event will probably occur in a given time frame) and magnitude (how bad the event will probably be, consequences).
Quantifying risk scenarios using quantitative analyses helps understanding the exposure to specific risks, however, building a portfolio of quantified risks to understand and manage a company’s risk landscape comes with additional challenges.
We are very excited to be partnering once again with the annual RSA Conference (RSAC21) to host multiple FAIR Institute-led events and sessions over the course of the conference in May.
