Explanation:
Single loss expectancy (SLE) is calculated by multiplying an assets value by its
exposure factor, which is the amount of potential loss that could be endured if the
identified threat were to occur. In this example,
Asset value x exposure factor = SLE
$25,000 x 10% = $2,500

One Comment on “What is the single loss expectancy (SLE)?

  1. Ravi says:

    each time a threat would cause a possible damage of 10% to an asset which costs 25000$. Maximum damage each time would be

    25000*10/100=2500$

    again a straight forward question.
