Zorluk: OrtaRisk Identification, Assessment, and Response Strategies

A university research facility hosts a specialized data repository with an estimated Asset Value (AVAV) of $600,000\$600,000. Threat analysis indicates an Exposure Factor (EFEF) of 25%25\% from potential unauthorized network intrusions, with an Annual Rate of Occurrence (AROARO) of 0.400.40. The security team proposes implementing an intrusion prevention system (IPS) that would reduce the EFEF to 5%5\% and the AROARO to 0.100.10. What is the expected annual financial loss reduction achieved by deploying the IPS control?

Cevap

The expected annual financial loss reduction achieved by deploying the IPS control is $57,000\$57,000.
The initial Annual Loss Expectancy (ALEALE) is calculated as AV×EF×ARO=$600,000×0.25×0.40=$60,000AV \times EF \times ARO = \$600,000 \times 0.25 \times 0.40 = \$60,000. The modified ALEALE after control deployment is $600,000×0.05×0.10=$3,000\$600,000 \times 0.05 \times 0.10 = \$3,000. The annual financial loss reduction achieved by the control is the difference between the initial ALEALE and modified ALEALE, which equals $60,000−$3,000=$57,000\$60,000 - \$3,000 = \$57,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the initial Single Loss Expectancy (SLEinitialSLE_{initial}) and initial Annual Loss Expectancy (ALEinitialALE_{initial}).
SLEinitial=AV×EFinitial=$600,000×0.25=$150,000SLE_{initial} = AV \times EF_{initial} = \$600,000 \times 0.25 = \$150,000. Thus, ALEinitial=SLEinitial×AROinitial=$150,000×0.40=$60,000ALE_{initial} = SLE_{initial} \times ARO_{initial} = \$150,000 \times 0.40 = \$60,000.
Determines the baseline expected annual risk impact before adding controls.
2
Calculate the post-control Single Loss Expectancy (SLEmodifiedSLE_{modified}) and post-control Annual Loss Expectancy (ALEmodifiedALE_{modified}).
SLEmodified=AV×EFmodified=$600,000×0.05=$30,000SLE_{modified} = AV \times EF_{modified} = \$600,000 \times 0.05 = \$30,000. Thus, ALEmodified=SLEmodified×AROmodified=$30,000×0.10=$3,000ALE_{modified} = SLE_{modified} \times ARO_{modified} = \$30,000 \times 0.10 = \$3,000.
Determines the expected residual annual risk impact after adding the IPS.
3
Compute the total annual financial loss reduction.
Loss Reduction =ALEinitial−ALEmodified=$60,000−$3,000=$57,000= ALE_{initial} - ALE_{modified} = \$60,000 - \$3,000 = \$57,000.
Measures the net risk mitigation value delivered by the security control.
