Recent edits...
The entire tone of the article was changed by the edits made by User:Smjerbic, to the point where a Conflict of interest discussion was opened. Some discussion needs to be had about these edits, especially in light of the replacement of sources and a direct reference to a particular company's implementation.

pathetic article
This is a really ridiculous article that doesn't capture what FAIR is about at all. I practice FAIR almost daily and barely recognize it from this description. The author is obviously more familiar with other cybersecurity risk management models and confuses FAIR with them.

Needs a complete rework. No, I don't volunteer, tired of edit wars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.96.92.160 (talk) 06:57, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
