Cyber Risk, while vital for every organization, is often difficult to quantify. This was the theme of the 2nd annual MIT/FRS Conference on Measuring Cyber Risk in the Financial Services Sector, hosted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Federal Reserve Board. Bringing together leaders from industry, government, and academia, the event focused on developing cyber risk metrics that can be broadly applied. Kristen Walters, our Senior Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer, moderated a panel on measuring and managing cyber risk. The panelists highlighted the need for cross-industry information sharing, alignment of defense lines, definitive risk appetites and metrics, and adaptability to the ever-evolving cyber threats. Also representing the Fund was Sherif Khalifa, our Managing Director, Head of Information & Corporate Security. This discussion provided an excellent platform for CROs from top financial institutions to share their insights on best practices for measuring and managing cyber risk, garnering support from corporate leadership, and ensuring effective implementation.

The prioritization of cyber risks should be reflective of real-world and current threats. Vulnerability management tools, along with homegrown techniques, often employ simplified risk models using CVE values and CVSS scores, overlooking crucial factors such as existing #mitigations and environmental intricacies. In this Balbix blog, Mike Parkin, a practitioner turned technical evangelist, explores the importance of prioritizing vulnerabilities and unveils the hidden costs associated with inadequate risk prioritization. https://lnkd.in/gbBAXHVR #cyberrisk #vulnerabilitymanagement #cyberriskquantification

Great to be back with the #srmctribe at the The Emergency Planning College (EPC) delivering our Cyber Resilience 101 Course. A big thanks to the delegates who were as strong as ever. This course really does attract the next generation of leaders in the security risk management space. We discussed why cyber resilience goes beyond security at a tactical and strategic level. A ‘risk-first’ approach to cybersecurity empowers security leaders to allocate resources more effectively, addressing the most urgent risks with maximum cost efficiency. #cyberrisk #cyberresilience #cyberinsurance Pete Lawrence Duncan Godfrey SIRM, FRGS
