Model it. Measure it. Monitor it. Manage it. Mature with it.
Be the organisation's Cyber Risk Guru.
Whether you're just starting out or a seasoned cybersecurity professional, there's always more to learn. That's why we have poured our experience and insights into cyberriskguru so you can benefit from the groundwork we've laid and accelerate your journey toward stronger cyber resilience.
But it all begins with the fundamentals. Your online services are under constant threat, and attackers are relentlessly scanning for weak configurations, flawed application designs, and exploitable vulnerabilities. Thus, cyberriskguru is built to help you address these risks head-on, offering educational threat modelling and AI-powered cyber risk analysis to support your path to becoming your organisation's cyber risk expert.
Get used to it. Malicious actors - both humans and bots - are continuously probing your digital infrastructure. If you look closely, you'll find traces of attempted intrusions everywhere: from technology fingerprinting to exploitation of registration flows, login mechanisms, and password reset procedures.
Your online service is made up of many moving parts. Strengthening your infrastructure is a good start, but true security begins with a thorough assessment of your application design. Identifying and eliminating weaknesses is the essence of threat modelling. From there, it's critical to ensure your components are free from known vulnerabilities through regular, automated vulnerability scanning.
Growing into your organisation's cyber risk expert, the guru, takes a lot of effort. But as you are improving your maturity in keeping the business secure, you also work your way up the career ladder. Therefore, cyberriskguru is designed to unlock supporting features as you grow. As an example is our unparalleled functionality to help you communicate with business leaders by expressing risks and effectiveness of security controls in monetary terms.
The built-in simulation algorithms compute probable losses for the current defence level, and advices you whether it is financially acceptable or if it is worthwhile to invest more. This will support business leaders with easy-to-grasp risk information so they can make informed decisions. Applying this approach will ultimately balance the organisation's security spending and align it to your risk appetite. At that point, you have most likely a standing invitation to where and when new business opportunities are discussed.
Sounds overwhelming? Don't worry, here are the steps to getting in the air and start mastering your own cybersecurity and cyber risks.
Clearly define the online service you wish to safeguard. This includes your most valuable data (your crown jewels), the system/application that serves this data, and the users who interact with the system in any capacity.
Gain invaluable insights through a simulated attack. The results will reveal:
The most concerning threat actors targeting your service
Identified design weaknesses and other vulnerabilities.
Potential exploitation methods used by threat actors.
Expert recommendations on mitigating these vulnerabilities.
Get advice on establishing effective controls to mitigate identified vulnerabilities, ensuring your system's resilience against attacks.
Benefit from ongoing monitoring of your application components for new vulnerabilities, ensuring your service remains secure and up-to-date with the latest threat intelligence.
By leveraging your service, we've learnt to proactively defend our online assets, maintain customer trust, and stay ahead of emerging cyber threats at a very reasonable cost.
