Single Loss Expectancy Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) is:

\[ \text{SLE} = \text{AV} \times \text{EF} \]

Where:

Single Loss Expectancy (SLE): The expected monetary loss every time a risk occurs. It is calculated by multiplying the asset value by the exposure factor.
Asset Value (AV): The monetary value of the asset.
Exposure Factor (EF): The percentage of the asset value that is lost due to a risk event.

Let's say the asset value is $100,000 and the exposure factor is 0.2. Using the formula:

\[ \text{SLE} = 100000 \times 0.2 \]

We get:

\[ \text{SLE} = 20000 \]

So, the Single Loss Expectancy is $20,000.
