How exposed is your organization to cyber threats?
Every day without a structured risk management approach increases your organization’s exposure to cyber threats. A risk-based, quantitative method like FAIR™ helps you make informed decisions, prioritize what matters most and keep your organization safe. It is time to take control of your cybersecurity strategy.
Fair Framework – What and why
FAIR: A risk-based approach to cybersecurity
Historically, cybersecurity risk management has been subjective, relying on qualitative assessments such as “high, medium, and low” risk ratings. While these approaches provide a general sense of risk levels, they lack the precision required for effective decision-making.
With cyberattacks becoming more sophisticated and frequent, making the right security investments is more important than ever. Budget increases alone aren’t enough – our understanding of where and why we invest must also improve. By taking a quantitative, risk-based approach, organizations can prioritize the most critical threats and maximize the impact of their security efforts.
Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIR™) is the only international standard quantitative model for information security and operational risk.
The FAIR framework provides a structured, data-driven approach to understanding, quantifying, and prioritizing cyber threats before they escalate into costly breaches.

financial impacts
FAIR quantifies risk in monetary terms, allowing organizations to understand the financial consequences of different cyber threats.
likelihood of occurence
FAIR helps estimate the probability of various threats, enabling organizations to understand the likelihood of specific risks materializing.
risk prioritization
This is crucial for effective risk management. FAIR helps organizations focus on the risks that could have the highest impact, ensuring resources are allocated to mitigate the most significant threats.
effectiveness of measures
Evaluating the effectiveness of existing cybersecurity measures helps identify gaps and optimize defenses.
Guide to a Risk-Based Approach
Whitepaper
This whitepaper introduces the FAIR (Factor Analysis of Information Risk) Framework and its role in quantifying and managing cybersecurity risks. It explains how organizations can shift from subjective assessments to data-driven, financial risk analysis, enabling better decision-making and resource allocation.
Key topics include:
Ideal for CISOs, risk managers, and security professionals, this guide helps organizations adopt a structured, risk-based approach aligned with business goals.
partnership
SAFE security
We partner with Safe Security to implement the FAIR Framework. Their platform quantifies cyber risk in financial terms, providing real-time insights for better decision-making and resource allocation.
This solution helps businesses adopt a data-driven, risk-based approach for more effective cybersecurity management aligned with financial and strategic goals.
