Capstone Security Solutions is a Certified CARVER Assessment Professional (CCAP) firm. We integrate the CARVER methodology—Criticality, Accessibility, Recoverability, Vulnerability, Effect, and Recognizability—into our vulnerability assessments to systematically identify and evaluate threats to critical assets. Originally developed by the U.S. military and used by intelligence agencies to prioritize offensive targets, CARVER has evolved into a powerful defensive tool. It provides both qualitative and quantitative data to support high-stakes decision-making across private and public sector environments.
An asset's criticality is measured by how severely its loss would impact mission or operational continuity. For example, a hospital's emergency power system is highly critical—its failure during an outage puts patient lives at immediate risk. Its essential role makes it a top-priority asset for protection and redundancy under CARVER's Criticality factor.
An asset’s accessibility is measured by how easily an adversary can approach, enter, or interact with it to carry out an attack. For example, an unlocked loading dock provides direct, unmonitored access to a building’s interior. This ease of access makes it a high-risk point under CARVER’s Accessibility factor and a priority for physical security upgrades.
An asset's recoverability is measured by the time it takes to be repaired, replaced, or recovered. For example, a campus's central security camera server is damaged during a break-in. Without a backup system, footage is lost, and surveillance is down for days. The delay in restoring coverage highlights poor recoverability, making it a high-risk asset under CARVER’s Recoverability factor.
An asset’s vulnerability is measured by how easily it can be damaged, destroyed, or compromised using known or likely attack methods. For example, an outdoor ATM with no overhead cover, lighting, or surveillance is highly vulnerable—it can be tampered with at night without detection. This lack of physical safeguards makes it a high-risk asset under CARVER’s Vulnerability factor.
An asset’s effect is measured by the severity of consequences resulting from a successful attack on it. For example, a cyberattack on a city’s water treatment facility can disrupt clean water access for thousands. The immediate and widespread impact on public health and safety makes it a high-risk asset under CARVER’s Effect factor.
An asset’s recognizability is measured by how easily an adversary can identify it under operational conditions. For example, a rooftop HVAC unit labeled with branded markings and fully exposed on a flat roof is easily identifiable. Its purpose and value are clear to intruders, making it a high-risk asset under CARVER’s Recognizability factor.
