Why each option
Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) is a formula used in quantitative risk analysis to calculate the financial impact of a single occurrence of a risk event.
SLO (Single Loss Occurrence) is not a standard term or formula used in quantitative risk analysis.
ARE (Annual Rate of Exposure) is not a standard term or formula used in quantitative risk analysis; the related standard term is Annualized Rate of Occurrence (ARO).
SLE (Single Loss Expectancy) is a quantitative risk analysis metric calculated as Asset Value (AV) multiplied by the Exposure Factor (EF), representing the monetary loss expected from one incident.
ALO (Annual Loss Occurrence) is not a standard term or formula used in quantitative risk analysis; the related concept that combines SLE and ARO is Annualized Loss Expectancy (ALE).
