FAIR Institute Summer Book Club Part 4 – Reading the FAIR Book Together – This Week: A Walk through a Sample Risk Analysis

Written by Rebecca Merritt | Jul 16, 2020 11:24:00 AM

All summer, we are reading together Measuring and Managing Information Risk, the classic book on quantitative risk analysis with the FAIR™ model. This week, we cover Chapter 8 (Risk Analysis Examples) and Chapter 9 (Thinking about Risk Scenarios Using FAIR). We’ll go step-by-step through the scenario of a breach of a customer database via an external malicious actor – follow along as a group to learn together or adapt it to another scenario of relevance to your organization.
