In security and risk management, criticality refers to the importance or impact of a loss, typically measured in monetary terms. It helps determine how severely the loss of an asset, process, or system could affect operations, productivity, or safety. Understanding criticality allows security professionals to prioritize protection efforts based on potential financial and operational consequences.
