Abstract

Risk analysis in cyber systems remains an immature field with significant potential. Despite widespread belief that cyber can't be quantified, the tools and data already exist to significantly improve risk management. In this talk, we'll review the literature on risk quantification and discuss examples of data-driven risk analysis.

Speaker: Marshall Kuypers

Director of Cyber Risk @QadiumInc

Dr. Marshall Kuypers is the Director of Cyber Risk at Qadium, an SF-based startup.
