Abstract

How does an organization know which security controls, applications, or programs to implement, when everything is a threat and every system is vulnerable? Looking at cybersecurity through a risk management lens is one way of reducing the noise of the threat environment. This presentation will discuss why having a Cyber Risk Management (CRM) program is a critical piece to an effective cybersecurity program. This presentation discuss the various Cyber Risk Management frameworks, the building blocks of an effective CRM program, regulatory & standards bodies driving cyber-risk management, metrics, CRM life cycle, and finally, how CRM fits into the overall Enterprise Risk Management program. At the end of the presentation the attendees will have the building blocks to start building a Cyber Risk Management program in their organizations. Additionally, this presentation will look at a few case studies through the cyber risk lens and how a CRM program would have aided in identifying those issues and risks.
