Article summary

Introduction


Risk scenarios describe in detail the asset at risk, who or what can act against the asset, their intent or motivation (if applicable), the circumstances and threat actor methods associated with the threat event, and the effect on the company if/when it happens, and when or how often the event might occur. All the Risk Scenarios in SAFE are fully FAIR-compliant. SAFE offers OOTB Risk Scenarios that are built upon the FAIR methodology.

Risk Scenario generates Likelihood, Loss Magnitude, and Annualized Loss outputs. SAFE offers an Out-of-the-box (OOTB) Risk Scenario Library. This library offers a wide range of pre-defined Risk Scenarios to expedite your risk assessment process.

The Risk Scenario page in SAFE displays the summary at the top that includes Worst Performing Risk Scenarios and Best Performing Risk Scenarios. It also displays the bubble graph for the Top Risk Scenario.

It displays all the Risk Scenarios in a table. You can use the different tabs to navigate quickly to the General Risks, Known Hacks, Cryptomining, Data Exfiltration, DDoS, and more.
