Cyber risk management must be integrated into enterprise risk management (ERM) frameworks to build true business resilience. Organizations should move beyond siloed IT security practices and adopt shared metrics, governance structures, and frameworks like NIST CSF 2.0 to align cyber risk with financial and operational risk. Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) is highlighted as a key enabler, translating technical threats into financial exposure data that supports board-level decisions, regulatory compliance (SEC, DORA, NIS2), and strategic capital allocation. The post also covers tradeoffs between qualitative assessments, custom models, and purpose-built CRQ platforms, advocating for scalable, repeatable, and data-driven approaches.
