Hubbard is the creator of Applied Information Economics and the bestselling author of How to Measure Anything, a groundbreaking book that has transformed how organisations... approach measurement and decision-making under uncertainty. Together, Seiersen and Hubbard wrote How to Measure Anything in Cybersecurity Risk, 2nd Edition, which applies Hubbard's rigorous quantitative methods to one of the most critical challenges facing modern organisations: understanding and measuring cybersecurity risk. The book challenges the subjective, qualitative risk assessment methods that dominate the cybersecurity industry, demonstrating how quantitative approaches can produce more accurate, actionable, and defensible risk assessments.

The second edition has been updated with new research, case studies, and practical guidance reflecting the rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape. Their writing is rigorous yet accessible, making complex statistical concepts understandable for security professionals, executives, and board members who need to make informed decisions about cybersecurity investments. How to Measure Anything in Cybersecurity Risk is available as an audiobook, offering listeners a practical, evidence-based approach to one of the most important challenges in modern business and technology.
