Cyber ​​attacks are now part of everyday life. The size and industry of the company hardly play a role anymore. However, how one is attacked and whether the attackers are successful in doing so is related to one's cybersecurity measures. Continuous risk assessment is important at this point. Not an easy task for the responsible Chief Information Officers (CISO) these days. According to the latest Allianz Risk Barometer, cyber incidents are currently the top business risk worldwide.
