Abstract

Systems, methods, and related technologies for determining a comprehensive risk score or value are described. The risk score determination may include selecting an entity communicatively coupled to a network and determining a cyber-attack likelihood value and a cyber-attack impact value associated with the entity. A cyber-attack risk may then be determined based on the cyber-attack likelihood value and a cyber-attack impact value associated with the entity. An operational failure likelihood value and an operational failure impact value associated with the entity can be determined. An operational failure risk based on the operational failure likelihood value and the operational failure impact value associated with the entity can be determined. A risk value may then be determined for the entity based on the cyber-attack risk and the operational failure risk and the risk value for the entity can be stored.
