Excludes ransom payment
Illustrative model using published incident-cost benchmarks. Actual losses vary by controls, insurance, and response readiness.
Total exposure combines operational downtime (lost productivity per employee per day), incident response and recovery (forensics, remediation, and rebuild), and data-breach costs (regulatory notification, potential penalties, and customer churn). A sector multiplier reflects the higher stakes in finance, energy, healthcare, and government. The figure deliberately excludes the ransom itself — paying is rarely advisable and does not guarantee recovery. For a deeper analysis, read our UAE threat landscape report or talk to our team.
Yes. The calculator is completely free, requires no signup, and runs entirely in your browser — none of your inputs are sent to a server or stored.
No. The estimate deliberately excludes the ransom itself, because paying is rarely advisable and offers no guarantee of clean recovery. It quantifies recoverable business impact: downtime, incident response, recovery, and data-breach costs.
It combines operational downtime (lost productivity per employee per day), incident response and recovery costs, and data-breach costs, then applies a sector multiplier reflecting the higher stakes in finance, energy, healthcare, and government. All figures are shown in AED.
It uses published incident-cost benchmarks adapted with a UAE sector multiplier to produce a defensible planning estimate. Actual costs vary with environment complexity, backup quality, and regulatory exposure. Use it as a board-level conversation starter rather than a precise forecast.
