Balanced Attacker Model
by Dr. Earl Crane PhD, CEO, Earl Crane LLC,
Adjunct Professor at Carnegie Mellon University CISO Certificate program

Must register here to attend. 

Abstract

Cybersecurity risk management is a constant struggle of insufficient resources against almost unlimited attackers. What makes a cybersecurity professional successful is balancing attackers with the right controls protecting the right assets. This is the “Balanced Attacker Model”.

In this session we will walk through a table-top exercise of the Balanced Attacker Model using a “risk deck” of cybersecurity loss scenarios. This exercise helps leadership identify and plan a course of action to address cybersecurity risks before an incident happens. This exercise has been taught to 100’s of government and commercial cybersecurity professionals, through Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Texas at Austin. 

The risk deck is available for purchase for $20 here:
