Reston, VA, Oct. 18, 2023 – The 2023 FAIR Conference on Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) hosted by the FAIR Institute, a research-driven not-for-profit organization advancing risk management based on Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIR™), the global standard for quantified risk analysis, today announced the finalists and winners of the FAIR Institute Awards program.
The awards recognize these professionals' impact on their organizations by enabling operational excellence and effective decision-making and balancing the need to protect their organizations while running the business.
For 2023, three awards have been bestowed on industry leaders by the FAIR Institute: the Business Innovator Award, the FAIR Ambassador Award, and the FAIR Champion Award. Nominations were reviewed, and a panel of FAIR Institute Advisory Board members selected the winners.
The Business Innovator Award salutes risk professionals who have successfully applied FAIR principles to drive innovation.
The FAIR Champion Award honors leaders at the forefront of their organization’s FAIR initiative who get data owners on board, stakeholders to help improve analysis, and decision-makers to adopt resulting analytics integral to their strategies, decision-making processes, and operating rhythms.
The 2023 FAIR Conference featured welcome remarks from Nick Sanna, Founder of the FAIR Institute and President of Safe Security (SAFE), with main insights from the new annual cyber risk report alongside David Burg, Cybersecurity Leader, EY.
