Topic: Intro to Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIRTM)
Join us for this presentation by Cary Wise, Head of Partner Professional Services for RiskLens,
Time and Location: April 21st, via Zoom Meeting 12:00-1:00pm
Summary: 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, analyzing and quantifying cyber risk and operational risk in financial terms.
- It is unlike risk assessment frameworks that focus their output on qualitative color charts or numerical weighted scales.
- It builds a foundation for developing a robust approach to information risk management.
