Systematic literature review for modeling a cyber risk assessment framework

This paper presents a framework for cyber risk assessment using a systematic literature review (SLR). A three-staged systematic review was used in this SLR planning, conducting, and reporting the review. Results screening was done by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. EndNote software and the PRISMA flow diagram were helpful tools during this screening process. The SLR helps the researcher to discover the variables and dimensions in assessing cyber risk. Its findings helped the researcher to produce a framework model of cyber risk assessment. The framework created is expected to give an overview of a more standardized and controlled method of assessing cyber risk to be adopted by organizations.
