An introduction to residual risk and ways assess and manage it

You can never reduce a risk to zero, whether it’s a Cyber threat or protecting critical airspace from Drones. In the high hazard industries that make up the critical national infrastructure, risk is well understood and quantitively assessed. These methods and techniques are transferable and are being used in the Cyber sector today. In this session a leading Risk Consultancy will introduce the concept of residual risk and explain how it can be assessed, managed and transferred irrespective of the size of business, or the type of Cyber threat.
