Cyber Resilience as Capital Planning: Quantifying Risk
<div cla For decades, the cybersecurity budgethas been treated as part of Operational Expenditure (OpEx), a necessary “tax” on doing business, much like insurance or electricity. Security leaders have traditionally fought for budgets based on fear, uncertainty, and doubt, often struggling to justify the return on investment for tools that ideally result in “no change”.…
