I recently had the privilege of kicking of the FAIR virtual community of interest by giving a presentation on the importance of Scoping a FAIR risk assessment. I really believe this group has the potential to be very valuable to the greater FAIR community. We had 34 people attend the meeting.
See below for the embedded deck:
*Note: I walked through 2 key examples within FAIRiq which is not part of the slides.

A great blog post from Pablo Salazar, Manager of Cisco’s Security Posture Assessment (SPA) team on the benefits of FAIR for assessing risk.
Read the article here: http://blogs.cisco.com/security/a-fair-way-to-assess-security-risk/
Cisco has found, just like Redpoint Risk has, that FAIR can provide clients with truly valuable information and understanding of risks.
