Risk is typically calculated as the product of likelihood, impact, and asset value. Likelihood represents the probability of a threat exploiting a vulnerability, impact refers to the potential damage or loss that could result from the threat, and asset value quantifies the importance or worth of the asset to the organization. The formula ( \text{Risk} = \text{Likelihood} \times \text{Impact} \times \text{Asset Value} ) captures the essence of risk in terms of these three factors.

The CSA curriculum is designed to align with industry best practices and standards for security operations centers12.
