Risk Advisory Services
At ZENIX, we specialize in providing state agencies with comprehensive risk management services built on the FAIR (Factor Analysis of Information Risk) methodology. As one of the most trusted frameworks for quantifying and managing risk, FAIR empowers organizations to make informed, data-driven decisions regarding their information security strategies.
Our team of certified FAIR practitioners delivers a structured approach to assessing, managing, and mitigating risks to help public agencies safeguard their operations and meet regulatory requirements.
What is the FAIR Methodology?
The FAIR methodology is a recognized framework for analyzing and quantifying information risk. Unlike traditional qualitative approaches, FAIR offers a quantitative model that helps organizations measure risk in financial terms, allowing leaders to prioritize resources and make more informed decisions.

Key Components of Our Risk Management Services
Risk Quantification
Using the FAIR framework, we help your agency understand risk in clear, measurable terms. This includes identifying potential risks, evaluating their likelihood, and determining their potential financial impact.
Risk Assessment
We conduct detailed risk assessments tailored to your agency’s specific needs, evaluating existing vulnerabilities, threat landscapes, and potential loss scenarios. Our FAIR-based assessments provide a thorough understanding of your risk exposure.
Threat Modeling
Our experts use FAIR to model various threat scenarios and assess how those threats could impact your agency’s objectives. This process enables you to predict and prepare for both internal and external threats.
Risk Mitigation Planning
Based on the results of our FAIR analysis, we develop actionable risk mitigation strategies that prioritize high-impact risks. Our plans are designed to align with your agency’s budget and operational constraints while reducing risk exposure
Scenario Analysis
We run scenario analyses using FAIR, enabling you to explore various “what-if” situations and understand how changes in threat levels, vulnerabilities, or controls could affect your risk profile.
Regulatory Compliance
Our FAIR-based risk management services help ensure that your agency meets all relevant regulatory and compliance requirements, including those set by NIST, SIMM, and other frameworks governing public sector IT security.
