Measuring and Managing Information Risk cover

A comprehensive resource that provides a much-needed, flexible methodology for measuring and managing information risk.

Using the factor analysis of information risk (FAIR) methodology developed over ten years and adopted by corporations worldwide, Measuring and Managing Information Risk provides a proven and credible framework for understanding, measuring, and analyzing information risk of any size or complexity. Intended for organizations that need to either build a risk management program from the ground up or strengthen an existing one, this book provides a unique and fresh perspective on how to do a basic quantitative risk analysis. Covering such key areas as risk theory, risk calculation, scenario modeling, and communicating risk within the organization, Measuring and Managing Information Risk helps managers make better business decisions by understanding their organizational risk.

"...informative and insightful—and surprisingly engaging. Using examples, anecdotes, and metaphors, the writers keep this educational work from becoming difficult... Professionals new to thorough information risk analysis or using more simplified approaches will find this book extremely useful." --Security Management
