You are given the task to calculate the annualized loss expectancy for a critical server in your project. the value of the server is $50,000, but it has crashed 10 times in the past year. each time it crashed, it resulted in a 20 percent loss to the project. what is the ale? (10 points)2. imagine that employees at your company lose, on average, one laptop a month. thieves have stolen them when employees left them in conference rooms during lunch, while they were on location at customer locations, and from training rooms. you have identified the average cost of these laptops, including the hardware, software, and data, as $2500 each. each stolen devices leads to a 100% data theft. this assumes employees do not store entire databases of customer information or other sensitive data on the systems, which can easily result in much higher costs. someone suggested purchasing hardware locks to secure these laptops for a total of $1,000. these locks work similar to bicycle locks and allow employees to wrap the cable around a piece of furniture and connect into the laptop. a thief needs to either destroy the laptop to remove the lock or take the furniture with them when stealing the laptop. and so security expertsestimated that these locks will reduce the number of lost or stolen laptops to only 3 a year. if you are to make a decision for your company to purchase them how would you use quantitative risk analysis to support your decision?
