The 2024 Cybersecurity Risk Report Provides CISOs Insights into the Likelihood and Financial Impact of Top Cyber Risks.
This Report is sponsored by EY and Safe Security which provided research on cybersecurity program development and data-science support.
“The FAIR Institute 2024 Cybersecurity Risk Report leverages our most extensive data set ever and applies advanced techniques in quantitative analysis to reveal the underlying risk factors that organizations need to understand to mount their most cost-effective defenses against data breach and other loss events,” said Nick Sanna, President of the FAIR Institute.
“The insights within demonstrate the value of CRQ to empower organizations to manage their cyber loss exposure in the financial terms that boards and senior management understand. It’s especially timely considering the rules on disclosure of material cyber risk adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in 2023, a powerful signal to public companies to improve their cyber risk reporting practices, and move to a data-driven, risk-based approach based on a transparent, defensible model such as FAIR,” adds Sanna.
The Report is augmented by material from the EY 2023 Global Cybersecurity Leadership Insights Study, based on interviews with 500 C-suite and cybersecurity leaders, that reveals valuable insights into the traits of “Secure Creators” who successfully implement cybersecurity programs.
In response to the new rules from the SEC on material cyber risk, the FAIR Institute Cybersecurity Risk Report also introduces the FAIR Materiality Assessment Model (FAIR-MAM™), the only standard taxonomy to comprehensively define what forms of losses contribute to the measure of materiality in financial terms.
