Featured Speaker: Mike Radigan
Topic: Introduction to OpenFAIR and Cyber Risk Quantification
Join us and guest speaker Mike Radigan, a seasoned cybersecurity leader from Cisco, to guide us through one of the most important evolutions in modern risk management: Open FAIR and Cyber Risk Quantification. In this session, Mike will demystify the Open FAIR model and show how quantitative risk analysis can replace subjective heatmaps with defensible, financially grounded insights. He’ll walk through how FAIR structures risk, how CRQ supports better prioritization and investment decisions, and why organizations are increasingly adopting quantitative methods to communicate risk to executives and boards.
Mike brings more than two decades of experience helping organizations strengthen their security posture, modernize their architectures, and make smarter, data‑driven decisions. His background spans enterprise security strategy, cloud and network security, and risk‑informed program development. At Cisco, Mike works closely with customers to translate complex security challenges into measurable, actionable outcomes — a perspective that aligns perfectly with today’s topic.
Who should attend: Security architects, CISOs, IT leaders, compliance and risk teams, and anyone responsible for protecting sensitive or long‑lived data.
