Risk that boards will fund — and auditors will accept.
Quantitative or qualitative — whatever the audience needs. NIST 800-30, FAIR, or a client-tailored methodology, translated into language a CFO and a CISO can both defend.
Why risk assessment
Two artifacts: a defensible methodology and findings the team will act on.
A risk assessment that lives only in a slide deck doesn’t change how the program operates. We use the framework that matches your audience and the rigor that matches your regulator — and we hand off a populated risk register that the team can run after we leave.
FAIR when leadership needs dollars. NIST 800-30 when the auditor needs a defensible scoring approach. A tailored hybrid when neither pure methodology fits your business.
What you get
Five deliverables. One operating risk register.
The report is the artifact for leadership. The risk register is the artifact that runs the program for the next twelve months.
A threat catalog scoped to your industry and tech stack, with likelihood scored using a defensible methodology — not a heat map drawn after the fact.
Inherent vs. residual risk, with controls mapped and effectiveness rated. Quantitative (FAIR) when the audience needs dollars; qualitative (NIST 800-30) when they need rankings.
Accept, mitigate, transfer, or avoid — each option with cost and effort estimates so the leadership team can make the call rather than ratify ours.
A board-ready summary delivered alongside a populated, owned risk register that survives the engagement and stays current after we leave.
Annual re-scoring with quarterly check-ins on top risks. Risk doesn't end at the report — and the program's job is to keep it from drifting.
How we engage
Methodology, scope, score, hand off.
Four to eight weeks end to end. The risk register is yours from day one — populated through the engagement and operational by delivery.
One session to pick the methodology — NIST 800-30, FAIR, or a tailored hybrid — define the audience, and agree on the rating scales the report will use.
Inventory of in-scope assets, mapped threats, and the data flows that connect them. Scope is locked here so the analysis stays defensible.
Risks scored, residuals calculated, and treatment options presented. Findings report delivered with an executive briefing on the same calendar week.
Populated risk register, ownership assigned, refresh cadence agreed. Optional retainer to operate the register if the team needs the bandwidth.
Methodologies supported
Quantitative or qualitative. Pick the one your audience will defend.
