A scanner hands a sixty-person firm 312 vulnerabilities, 47 of them flagged "critical," and a five-month queue to clear the reds.
This episode walks the backlog. No new tools, just the discipline at work.
Probability cuts 47 to 6. Asset value cuts 6 to 3.
Then the list reorders. A flaw the scanner rated "Medium" climbs into the final top 3, because the thing most likely to actually hurt the firm was buried in the middle of the pile.
The payoff is one sentence a board can hear, in dollars, with no math on the slide. A 1-in-7 chance of losing more than $250K this year. A 1-in-50 chance of losing more than $2M.
Calibration isn't more work. It's a shorter, truer, defensible list.
The firm is made up. That VPN bypass is not.
Third episode of a six-week series on measurement. Last week named the discipline. This week shows it at work on a real backlog.
