ChatGPT-Assisted Risk Ranking and Prioritization

In this recipe, we’ll leverage the capabilities of ChatGPT to prioritize and rank cybersecurity risks based on the given data. Prioritizing risks in cybersecurity is a crucial task that helps organizations focus their resources where they matter most. With the use of ChatGPT, you can make this task more manageable and objective.

In the given scenario, we have a dataset that includes a range of risk-related factors for different assets or systems. These factors include the type of asset, its criticality rating, the business function it serves, the size and rating of its attack surface, the attack vector rating, and the mitigations and remediations in place.

ChatGPT will assist us in creating a scoring algorithm based on this data to prioritize the risks. The highest-priority risks, as calculated by the scoring algorithm, will be listed at the top of a new table. We’ll guide you through the process using sample data...
