Know how to carefully QA a FAIR quantitative risk analysis, double-checking your inputs for magnitude and frequency?  Know how to draw an estimate out of a reluctant SME? How about how to model controls - MFA vs DLP and the rest? 

This week in our reading of the FAIR book, Measuring and Managing Information Risk, we learn some expert techniques for successful quantitative risk analysis from Chapter 10 (Common Mistakes) and Chapter 11 (Controls).  Follow the chapter study guides to keep your group's discussions productive.
