Are you using your cyber risk to drive your cybersecurity strategy? There's no room to experiment when attacks are on the line, I'll show you how:
In math, there's an equation called "Expected Value" that helps us measure the possible outcomes and impacts related to an 'event'.
For example, you can use it to measure the odds in a game to see if a bet makes sense.
It's also what goes into understanding our cyber risk, and in cybersecurity it's based on two key factors:
Likelihood
and
Impact
Likelihood is based on threats and the vulnerabilities or weaknesses in our environment.
Impact is based on how we use our tech and data and boils down to the CIA Triad of Cybersecurity which measures possible impacts from compromises of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability.
Next week on Tuesday, Jan 13 at 1pm ET, I'll teach you more about how easy this is to start to apply and how it can guide your decisions around priorities in your cyber strategy.
It's the full part of a series I'm running to help people create and follow a strategy month-by-month throughout 2026.
Check it out, grab our resources, and join me next week to learn more!
