Cyber Risk Workshop – How to Measure and Communicate What Matters in Cybersecurity Risk 2024

Attend this interactive workshop to learn what’s important in measuring and communicating risk, as well as share knowledge and best practices with your peers.

During this workshop, we will delve into the heart of cybersecurity risk measurement across three progressive sessions. Our focus will be on discovering which risks are most likely to cause significant business losses across the intersection of assets, threats and vulnerabilities.

The workshop will cover three key areas:

1. Cybersecurity metrics on rails. Learn the building blocks for modern capability-based metrics. This course covers the concept, object and methods of measurement and applies them to creating easy-to-operationalise measures.
2. The quantified cybersecurity risk register. Use the concepts from the first session to assemble a quantified risk register. Focus on crown-jewel assets while incorporating simple monetary measurements to quantify, qualify, communicate and advocate for improvement. Learn how to build simple metrics cards that can be assembled into dashboards.
3. Presenting metrics that matter to the board. Learn how to develop risk-driven board presentations that leverage the concepts from sessions 1 and 2. You will get access to simple PowerPoint templates and outlines for framing your presentation.
