Cyber Risk Modelling with FAIR
Understand how to consistently and logically analyse cyber risk in financial terms using the international standard FAIR model and straightforward 4-step analysis process

Organisations are increasingly transitioning to risk-based approaches to information security and operational risk management, as compliance to regulations alone provide only a minimum layer of security and fail to adequately protect them.
Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIRTM) is the only international standard quantitative model for information security and operational risk.
-
FAIR provides a model for understanding, analysing and quantifying cyber risk and operational risk in financial terms.
-
It is unlike risk assessment frameworks that focus their output on qualitative colour charts or numerical weighted scales.
-
It builds a foundation for developing a robust approach to information risk management.
Technical content will be compressed into 60-minute sessions to keep the presentations at the most engaging level and provide opportunities for discussion between attendees and the course tutor.
