How do you determine your organization's risk appetite? For both CISOs and all other executive stakeholders understanding your enterprise's risk appetite is crucial for success. When an organization knows how much risk it is willing to accept, it can pursue opportunities that align with its risk appetite while avoiding those that might expose it to undue risk. In this video, cybersecurity expert Mike Reimer explains how taking a data-driven, objective approach to risks elevates cybersecurity to a core business enabler.

Ivanti research shows that a large majority of companies (83%) report they have a framework for defining risk tolerance. However, 51% say they do not follow their existing risk tolerance framework. Why is this such a challenge? In this video, Ivanti cybersecurity expert, Mike Riemer addresses the significant challenges security professionals face when measuring and managing risk exposure and offers strategies for cybersecurity teams to develop and follow an organization risk tolerance framework.

In today's digital landscape, data is the lifeblood of any organization. However, Ivanti’s new research report, Exposure Management: Transforming Cybersecurity from Subjective to Objective: (ivanti.com/proactive-security) finds that modern enterprises are data-rich but information-poor. So how can data standardization in cybersecurity help organizations break down data silos, improve data quality and ultimately enhance their security posture?

Understanding Risk Appetite in Organizations Risk appetite guides organizations in assessing their risk tolerance and aligning actions with risk management strategies. Frameworks like NIST CSF 2.0 aid in prioritizing risks and measuring outcomes. Organizations need to evaluate security investments against acceptable risk levels, factoring in costs of vulnerabilities. Exposure management offers a comprehensive view of risk, while internal and external influences shape risk decisions. The link between vulnerability scores and exploitability requires careful prioritization of security measures.

Evolving Maintenance Strategies for Cybersecurity Maintenance strategies now focus on selective patching and pilot group testing to address vulnerabilities. The rise in data breaches has led to the creation of multiple service level agreements (SLAs) for quick resolutions. Organizations are preparing for future SLAs to handle regular maintenance and priority updates. With frequent browser updates, there is a shift towards continuous maintenance practices, aiming for full automation in managing updates and vulnerabilities.
