Cyber risk is no longer just a technical issue. It’s a financial one.

In this episode of The SafeHouse Podcast, Jeff Edwards sits down with Davis Hake, leader of Venable’s San Francisco cybersecurity practice, to unpack what risk management actually means in today’s cyber environment.

Davis shares his early exposure to national critical infrastructure risk, the moment he saw one of the first comprehensive cyber breach tracking lists, and how Stuxnet changed the public conversation around digital vulnerability.

From there, the discussion moves into something most organizations still struggle with: measuring cyber risk in financial terms.

You’ll hear:

• The five elements of risk explained in plain language

• Why most cyber programs fail to quantify exposure

• How to think about cyber risk like a CFO

• The growing need for financial risk measurement training

• Practical resources for professionals who want to level up

If you work in cybersecurity, insurance, enterprise risk, or resilience strategy, this conversation will sharpen how you think about exposure, impact, and accountability.

Cyber risk isn’t abstract. It’s measurable. And it’s time we treated it that way.
