Today, Antwerp Management School launches the “Institute for Cyber Economics”. After two decades of research and development in the area of Cybereconomics, moving the topic out of Fear Uncertainty and Doubt (#FUD), jargon, and complex abbreviations towards a more business-oriented approach. The Institute will focus on the financial and economic dimensions of Digital Security and Cyber Risk and bridge the gap between technical cybersecurity practices and economic decision-making — helping organizations understand where to invest, how to quantify cyber risk, and how to determine their returns. Our inaugural positioning paper, “From Gut Feel to Gains: The Cybersecurity ROI Pyramid” (https://lnkd.in/e5SWzQZ4), sets the foundation for this innovative Institute, and it integrates its insights directly into AMS’s Executive Master's program, where case-based learning helps quantify risks and helps enrich participants with actionable models for cyber risk quantification and decision frameworks. Participants in our AMS Master track will apply proven methodologies to their own organizations using proven models such as #ValueAtRisk and #FAIR. Through case-based learning, threat model simulations, and applied research, participants will explore how to: •⁠ ⁠Translate cyber risks into financial terms;  •⁠ ⁠Optimize cybersecurity portfolios; •⁠ ⁠Align security investments with organizational strategy and value creation.

The U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security “Cyber Threat Snapshot” confirms what many in critical infrastructure already feel: OT operators are facing the most aggressive wave of cyber threats in a decade. State-sponsored campaigns, zero-day exploitation, AI-enabled intrusions, and supply-chain attacks are rising — yet most organizations still rely on qualitative risk assessments. DeNexus’ DeRISK platform translates these complex OT exposures into quantified financial metrics, helping CISOs, CFOs, and boards understand where risk is concentrated and where investment delivers the highest ROI.

DeRISK QVM prioritizes CVEs by financial impact, contextualizing them with role of the impacted device and presence of cybersecurity controls, and shows the risk reduction you’ll gain before you address the CVE Request a demo today » https://lnkd.in/gbiipW_k #CyberSecurity #OTSecurity #VulnerabilityManagement #RiskQuantification #MITREATTACK #ICS #RiskManagement #CISO

DeNexus joined the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) at its regional meetings across the U.S. — from Texas to Rhode Island — to discuss how electric cooperatives can better protect their systems and communities in an increasingly digital world. Through our partnership with NRECA, we’re helping America’s electric co-ops translate cybersecurity into measurable business decisions using Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) — empowering leaders to justify investments, optimize insurance, and strengthen resilience across the grid. Together, we’re not just protecting systems — we’re protecting communities. 💡 Read more on the blog: https://lnkd.in/dVCXNskf 

Parlons business : et si on traduisait le risque cyber en euros ou en dollars ? 💸 C'est la promesse tenue par les solutions de quantification du risque cyber (que vous pouvez parfois rencontrer sous le sigle "CRQ" pour "Cyber Risk Quantification"). Cette technologie, qui commence à se faire connaître en Europe, a plusieurs usages : justification du budget cyber auprès du COMEX, maîtrise des risques liés aux tiers, négociation de la prime d'assurance cyber... Et pourrait bien faire du risque cyber un risque d'entreprise comme les autres ! A quoi sert exactement la CRQ ? Qui sont les acteurs de ce marché ? Et en quoi la CRQ diffère-t-elle du scoring ? 🧐 La réponse à toutes ces questions est à retrouver dans mon dernier article sur INCYBER News 👉 https://lnkd.in/eF_sT4k4 Un grand merci à Ludovic B., Maxime Cartan, Jose M Seara, Bret Laughlin, Christophe Maira, David Steng, Marie Giesbert pour leur aide ! 🙏

Thanks to Alex Mican, MBA, ARe, AINS for inviting DeNexus to participate in the ASTIN workshop and for modeling the panel on Cyber Risk Aggregation in the Industrial Sector. And thanks to Rosa Kariger, Christopher Norwood and Neil Arklie for leading the conversation!

At the 10th ASTIN Cyber Workshop, DeNexus led a powerful discussion on Insurance Market Cyber Aggregation Risk in the Industrial Sector, featuring Rosa Kariger (DeNexus), Neil Arklie (A I UK International Limited), and Christopher Norwood (Chaucer Group). The session spotlighted a key gap: while most conversations focus on cyber event frequency, industrial and cyber-physical risk remains underexplored. Rosa Kariger emphasized that “the key driver of risk remains the attack surface,” underscoring the value of telemetry and purpose-built models for OT environments. Christopher Norwood showcased how Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) is transforming underwriting workflows—merging actuarial rigor with real-time industrial telemetry through initiatives like Chaucer’s Vanguard program and DeNexus’ DeRISK platform. Neil Arklie highlighted that true growth in cyber insurance lies in bridging cyber-physical exposure across property, marine, and energy lines—requiring risk analysis that speaks the language of CISOs. The takeaway?  Progress is happening—but slowly. The future of cyber insurance will hinge on collaboration, transparency, and data-driven resilience between insurers and industrial operators.

Introducing our Compliance Framework Assessment and Benchmarking Tool! At CyberAlberta Connect 2025, we unveiled a bold new resource to help Alberta organizations assess, improve, and benchmark their cybersecurity posture. Today, we’re proud to officially launch the Compliance Framework Assessment and Benchmarking Tool!  This fillable PDF assessment helps organizations:  🔸 Understand their current cybersecurity posture  🔸Identify gaps and risks  🔸Track progress over time  🔸Benchmark against peers across Alberta The framework is built on the six core functions of cybersecurity from NIST, and incorporates cyber readiness goals from the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security, tailored to Alberta’s unique context. By submitting an anonymous copy of your completed assessment, your organization helps build Alberta’s cybersecurity snapshot. This collective data will guide future strategies and support a more cyber-resilient province.  We invite Alberta businesses, public sector organizations, and CyberAlberta COI members to join us in this shared effort. Your participation helps build a stronger, safer digital future for everyone in the province. 📥 Download the tool and learn more: https://lnkd.in/gm842CYJ #CyberAlberta #CyberResilience #ComplianceFramework
