The concept of a Cybersecurity Resilience Quotient (CRQ) addresses the need for a more holistic and adaptable metric for evaluating and improving an organization’s cybersecurity resilience. In a rapidly evolving threat landscape, traditional metrics like the number of security incidents or mean time to respond may not provide a comprehensive view of an organization’s security posture. The CRQ aims to consider various critical factors, including asset criticality, asset exposure, asset vulnerability, risk tolerance, architecture defensibility, business process vulnerabilities, and incident response preparedness. This dynamic metric can be used for benchmarking, risk mitigation, strategic planning, and continuous monitoring, helping organizations better understand and enhance their cybersecurity resilience.
