CRML: A Declarative Language for Cyber Risk Modeling as Code
By
SANKET SARKAR
Lacks bite. And filling. And a copy-editor at the bakery.
Summary
CRML (Cyber Risk Modeling Language) is an open, declarative language for writing cyber risk as code. It provides a YAML/JSON format for describing cyber risk models, telemetry mappings, simulation pipelines, dependencies, and output requirements without forcing users into specific quantification methods, simulation engines, or security-control/threat catalogs. The language is engine-agnostic and framework-agnostic, addressing the gap in having "Risk as Code" similar to infrastructure as code and network as code.
