Dimensions of Cybersecurity Risk Management

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Advances in Cybersecurity Management

Abstract

Risk analysis and management are of fundamental importance in cybersecurity. The core elements of risk are threat, vulnerability, and impact. Risk management has a basis in cybersecurity technical policies, procedures, and practices. Dimensions of risk are also at higher levels, with major interconnections in issues of international relations and trade, safety, economic vitality, health, and human life. The work of this paper is focused on risk and closely related concepts. Details and analyses that pertain to security of cyber-physical systems and the role of intrusion detection and machine learning methodologies are included.
