The Cyber Risk Appetite Definition defines and quantifies an organization's tolerance for cyber risks. This definition involves identifying the types of risks an organization is willing to accept and those that are not acceptable. The goal is to ensure that an organization's security investments align with its risk tolerance and overall business objectives.

ThreatNG helps organizations define and manage their cyber risk appetite by providing a comprehensive view of their security posture and helping them align their security investments with their risk tolerance and business objectives.

As a security ratings solution substantiated with external attack surface and digital risk intelligence, ThreatNG can help organizations with cyber risk appetite definition in the following ways:

Quantify risk: ThreatNG provides a risk score considering factors such as an organization's attack surface, exposed credentials, and potential misconfigurations. By using this risk score, firms can better assess their exposure to cyber risk and determine how much risk they are willing to take.

Prioritize remediation efforts: By providing a risk score based on external intelligence, ThreatNG can help organizations prioritize their remediation efforts and address the most critical risks that exceed their risk appetite.

Adjust risk tolerance: ThreatNG enables businesses to modify their risk appetite in response to shifting business goals, such as the introduction of new products, expansion into new markets, or adjustments to regulations or compliance standards.

Monitor risk over time: ThreatNG can help organizations monitor their cyber risk exposure and provide insights into changing risk posture. This course of action enables organizations to make data-driven decisions about their security investments and adjust their risk appetite accordingly.
