Memory Deck Flashcards
SLE = AV * EF
Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) - Negative impact for one-time occurrence
Asset Value (AV)
Exposure Factor (EF) - If a flood will damage 40% of your data center, EF is 40%
ARO
Annual Rate of Occurance
ALE = ARO * SLE
🍺 = 😍 (get it?)
Ale makes arousal
Annual Loss Expectancy = Rate of Occurrence - Single Loss Expectancy

Due Diligence
: Do Detect
Imagine you have a pool. To protect children and animals from drowning in your pool, you exercise due care by building a fence around the pool. Regularly checking the fence for vulnerabilities and correcting them demonstrates due diligence.
