EBIOS Risk Manager study guide
EBIOS Risk Manager · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
EBIOS Risk Manager is a certification listed in the APMG International certification catalogue, and APMG is the body whose site hosts its certification pages. The pages that would normally carry the exam's specification - the main EBIOS Risk Manager page and the EBIOS Risk Manager Foundation page - both returned a 404 "Page not found" error when checked on 7 November 2026, so no verified details about the exam are currently available from the official source. That means we cannot confirm the number of questions, the duration, the passing score, the fee, the delivery format, the retake rules or the validity period of the certificate. We also cannot confirm which syllabus version is in force, whether one or more levels exist beyond Foundation, or which languages the exam is offered in. Candidates should treat any figure they see elsewhere with caution until APMG republishes the pages or confirms the details directly. In the meantime, the most reliable preparation route is to obtain the official EBIOS Risk Manager guidance and the current syllabus from APMG or an accredited training provider, work through the method's workshops and deliverables, and practise applying them to a realistic case study rather than memorising definitions. Topics on this exam: EBIOS Risk Manager. The EBIOS Risk Manager study guide has 1 section and about 352 words.
01EBIOS Risk Manager
EBIOS Risk Manager (EBIOS RM) is ANSSI's method for cyber risk assessment and treatment. The exam tests whether you can run its five workshops in order, keep strategic and operational reasoning distinct, and turn outputs into defensible treatment decisions. Workshop 1 - framing and baseline: define scope, business values, supporting assets, feared events, and the security baseline. Workshop 2 - risk sources: identify sources, their objectives and motivations, then select the ones retained for study.
