Answer preview

It is important to understand cyber risks and their potential impact to the organization in order to minimize conflict, maximize resources, and increase speed response when problems do arise. Organizations should have the abilities to operate its defensive capabilities through all forthcoming intrusions. Understanding cyber risks also helps to redirect, monitor, or block any adversary actions, as well as facilitate vulnerability scanning (Zimmerman, 2013). When organizational officials understand the potential impact that cyber risks may have on corporate action, they are more likely to participate in or encourage activities that will prevent these risks through patching or even firewall blocks. Such officials will also be more likely to deploy, acquire, operate, upgrade, and tune tools to prevent or monitor intrusions (Zimmerman, 2013).
