Cyber threats are no longer IT-based. There are business problems. A single password or unpatched software is the gateway to major harm: data theft, money loss and trust breakdown.
This is where threat, vulnerability and risk assessment is brought in. It is not about response to attacks, it’s the matter of being ahead of them.
These are the three critical areas that we are going to break down in this blog. You will know how to detect threats, identify vulnerabilities, and evaluate risk to safeguard your business.
Building Blocks of Cyber Risk Management
- Threats - The threats are what you are opposed to. They are hackers, malware, system failure and even careless employees.
- Vulnerabilities Your vulnerabilities are your weak points in software, the old systems, or the weak access control.
- Risk - Risk is a product of a threat and vulnerability. What is the probability of the damage? Just how dreadful could it be?
Why it Matters?
What you cannot see you cannot fix. Without a clear idea on what your risks are, you are merely throwing darts. And guessing is risky in the case of cybersecurity.
You will be able to make smarter decisions with a good threat modelling, vulnerability assessment, and risk assessment. You can make your defences strong even when the attackers are yet to attempt.
Whether you are a security professional or an aspiring one, this blog introduces you with tools to minimize cybersecurity risk.
So, let us begin because prevention is always better than cure.
