Most risk assessments hand you a red-yellow-green heat map. We use FAIR methodology to quantify your exposure in dollar terms — numbers your board can act on and your insurer can price.
A point-in-time scan is not a risk assessment. We evaluate your environment across four interconnected domains to build an accurate picture of your actual exposure.
Who is realistically targeting your organization, what are their capabilities, and how often do they strike organizations like yours?
How effective are your current security controls at reducing the likelihood and impact of a successful attack?
What is the probable financial impact of each risk scenario, expressed as a range with confidence intervals?
How do your risk scenarios and control gaps map to your regulatory obligations and applicable frameworks?
FAIR (Factor Analysis of Information Risk) is the only internationally recognized standard for quantitative cyber risk analysis. Here's how we apply it.
We identify your most valuable assets and the threat communities most likely to target them — grounded in real threat intelligence, not generic categories.
We model how often a given threat actor is likely to encounter your assets and how probable they are to exploit a weakness when they do.
We estimate the primary loss (direct costs to you) and secondary loss (legal, regulatory, reputational) for each scenario, expressed as a distribution of probable values.
We combine frequency and magnitude to calculate an Annualized Loss Expectancy (ALE) range per scenario, giving you a financial baseline to measure controls against.
Every engagement produces a complete deliverable package designed to drive action at every level of your organization.
A plain-English narrative of your top risk scenarios, financial exposure ranges, and recommended strategic investments — ready to present at your next board meeting.
For each recommended control, we show you the expected reduction in annualized loss exposure versus the cost of implementation — so you invest where it actually moves the needle.
A prioritized register of risk scenarios, each with loss exposure ranges, likelihood estimates, and risk reduction recommendations.
Specific technical and process gaps mapped to each risk scenario, with severity ratings and evidence-backed remediation guidance.
A prioritized action plan organized by time horizon, balancing quick wins against strategic investments based on your budget and risk appetite.
Comparison of your risk posture against cyber insurance underwriting criteria — helping you negotiate better coverage terms or right-size your policy limits.
Your board wants to understand cyber risk in financial terms — not traffic lights. FAIR-based output gives them the exposure ranges and ROI data they need to approve budget.
Insurers are tightening underwriting criteria. A quantitative assessment demonstrates risk maturity and can directly support better premiums and higher coverage limits.
You have limited budget and a long list of potential controls. Control ROI analysis tells you which investments reduce your ALE the most per dollar spent.
After a breach or near-miss, you need a baseline to measure progress. A quantitative assessment before and after remediation shows regulators and leadership what changed.
Understand the inherited cyber risk exposure of an acquisition target, or demonstrate your own risk posture to a buyer with an objective third-party analysis.
Regulatory guidance and organizational risk programs recommend annual risk assessments. Ours gives you year-over-year tracking of exposure trends and control effectiveness.
Validate your risk assessment findings. We simulate real-world attacks to confirm which theoretical vulnerabilities are actually exploitable.
