Description: A risk indicator is a metric used to assess the level of risk in a particular area, providing a quantitative or qualitative representation of the likelihood of an adverse event occurring and the impact it could have. In the context of cyber intelligence, risk indicators help identify potential threats and vulnerabilities in information systems, allowing organizations to prioritize their security efforts. In information security regulations, these indicators are fundamental to comply with standards and regulations, as they measure the effectiveness of implemented policies. In vulnerability analysis, risk indicators facilitate the identification of critical areas that require immediate attention, helping to mitigate potential security gaps. The correct interpretation and use of these indicators is essential for informed decision-making in risk management, ensuring that organizations can effectively and efficiently protect their assets.
