Scoring Assistant

The Scoring Assistant page in CyberGuard.ai streamlines the process of evaluating and quantifying cybersecurity risks through a structured scoring framework. It leverages the EBIOS-RM risk matrix or other supported models to guide users in assessing threat factors, vulnerabilities, and business impacts—ensuring consistent, data-driven risk evaluations. By providing an interactive scoring interface, it helps organizations calculate composite risk values objectively and align them with standardized methodologies.


Usage Notes

  • Risk Matrix Selection

    • Choose the applicable scoring framework (e.g., EBIOS-RM 4x4 risk matrix) from the dropdown to set the evaluation scale.

    • The system dynamically updates scoring parameters based on the selected model.

  • Threat Agent Factors

    • Assess technical skill, motivation, available resources, and group size of threat actors.

    • Each selection automatically contributes to the Threat Agent Factors score.

  • Vulnerability Factors

    • Evaluate discovery difficulty, exploit likelihood, and detectability of vulnerabilities.

    • The system calculates the Vulnerability Factors accordingly.

  • Business Impact Factors

    • Estimate potential financial, reputational, compliance, and data exposure impacts.

    • Scores here quantify how an incident would affect organizational resilience.

  • Technical Impact Factors

    • Analyze service disruption, data sensitivity, traceability, and integrity risks.

    • These scores form part of the technical dimension of the risk matrix.

  • Automated Scoring

    • All inputs dynamically calculate total scores and categorize risk exposure levels.

    • The interface highlights critical contributors, supporting transparent decisions.


Benefits

  • Simplifies complex risk calculations through guided scoring steps.

  • Promotes consistent, repeatable, and auditable risk evaluations.

  • Reduces subjective bias by using standardized quantitative models.

  • Integrates seamlessly with Risk Assessments and Scenarios for holistic analysis.


  • Risk Assessments – Aggregate results from scoring to define organizational risk posture.

  • Ebios RM Studies – Conduct structured risk analysis aligned with EBIOS-RM methodology.

  • Risk Scenarios – Apply scores to model detailed threat situations and mitigation plans.

  • Vulnerabilities – Link scoring outcomes with known vulnerabilities to prioritize remediation.
