In episode 65 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-host Sean Atkinson is joined by Christopher Painter, Board Member of the Center for Internet Security (CIS) and President of the Global Forum on Cyber Expertise Foundation. Together, they discuss cybersecurity risk management. They begin by discussing how cyber risk analysis fits into a business risk management program in general. From there, they explore quantitative risk analysis (QRA), including its benefits for understanding cyber risk and the challenges of getting started. Their conversation then gets into how the CIS Board of Directors, specifically the Risk Committee, is using different methods of QRA to achieve CIS's business goals and objectives.
