State of Cyber Risk

Written By Pru Quinlan

In this KBI.MediaAccess Granted interview, Karissa Breen speaks with Qualys President and CEO Sumedh Thakar about the findings of the latest State of Cyber Risk Assessment from Qualys and Dark Reading. The discussion focuses on why cybersecurity teams need to move beyond vulnerability severity alone and assess risk through the lens of business context, including asset criticality, operational impact and value-at-risk. Its significance lies in the shift from cyber risk as a technical issue to cyber risk as a business and continuity issue, especially as expanding digital environments make it harder for organisations to understand what they truly own, what is exposed and what matters most.

“The reality is that most people will feel that the risk is increasing because suddenly your software and your hardware is doubling and tripling.” - Sumedh Thakar, President & CEO, Qualys.
