How do you measure the impact of rare but very expensive flaws without inventing phony metrics to pretend to fit the tasks you think need doing?

"Don't have a catastrophic data breach"

There isn't a middle ground where there is a linear correlation between a serious compound failure and fixing bugs or writing tests.

You could come up with a methodology for a "security score" and track that. However it is both a transparent workaround for having specific bugs / tasks in OKRs and it is likely that your invented metric will be bogus and will lead you to do irrational things.
