Cyber risk is the potential for loss or harm — financial, operational, or reputational — resulting from a failure or breach of an organization's information systems. Risk managers and security professionals assess cyber risk by evaluating threats, vulnerabilities, and the potential impact of incidents, often quantifying it for insurance, compliance, or executive decision-making purposes. Managing cyber risk involves a mix of technical controls, policies, and risk transfer mechanisms like cyber insurance.
