PodChats for FutureCISO: Risk quantification strategies in 2023

We are all familiar with the concepts of risks and uncertainty. Risk is a quantifiable element of doing business, whereas uncertainty is something we'd like to be prepared for but often challenging to quantify.Events of the past three years, including those occurring now, have exposed us to both and while we can't absolutely predict uncertainty, we can at least work towards mitigating the risks that may result from these uncertainties. In today's PodChats for FutureCISO, we are joined by Jonathan Jackson, director of sales engineering APJ at BlackBerry to share with us his perspective on risk quantification strategies in 2023.1.       What is risk quantification? Is it the same as risk assessment? If not what’s the difference?2.       What conditions require risk quantification? Is it a one-time requirement? Perpetual? What are the triggers for needing to do risk quantification?3.       How does an organisation go about assessing whether they need risk quantification as part of their assessment/management strategy?4.       Are all risk quantification solutions/approaches equal?5.       What questions should they be asking when evaluating a risk assessment solution?6.       Who should be involved in making this evaluation?a.       What is your advice for executives charged with risk assessment?7.       How do you get board buy-in?
