Join us for two days, and we’ll inspire, educate, and connect you with a community of cyber and operational risk management leaders. Safe Security, technical advisor to the FAIR Institute and sponsors of the event, is thrilled to invite you to attend the 2023 FAIR Conference on Tuesday and Wednesday, October 17 & 18, in Washington, D.C. (with training October 15 & 16) at the Fairmont Hotel.

The cyber risk landscape is ever-evolving, but so is Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIR™), and the 2023 conference agenda will keep you on top of what’s next, from AI risk assessment to meeting the new SEC compliance rules to maximizing budget for a CRQ program. Here are five reasons to register for FAIRCON23 now.

1. FAIR is undergoing rapid evolution – learn the latest developments in cyber risk quantification.You know FAIR – but do you know FAIR-CAM™, the controls analytics model? Or FAIR-MAM™, the materiality assessment model that extends the loss magnitude side of the original FAIR? Or FAIR-TAM™, the third-party risk assessment model, debuting at FAIRCON23? SAFE is automating the FAIR model to change how businesses can scale and leverage the FAIR model. Using real-time signals and an AI-driven approach, SAFE continues transforming how businesses measure and manage cyber risk. Learn more about how SAFE automates FAIR.
