CISO – Skuridat

Use case · Value-chain exposure

Your weakest link isn't yours.

The situation

Hundreds of suppliers, assessed through questionnaires, certifications and periodic reviews. Plenty of assurance—but limited visibility into which supplier exposures could affect a critical business service.

What we do

Continuously observe critical suppliers outside-in, identify relevant exposures and connect vendors to the business services that depend on them.

The payoff

Focus third-party cyber risk effort on the suppliers that matter most—and bring observable security evidence into assessments, reviews and contract conversations.

Phases used

Scoping → Discovery → Prioritization

Output

Prioritized supplier exposure register with business context

Use case · NIS2 / DORA readiness

Compliance is the floor. Risk decides what comes next.

The situation

NIS2 and DORA create cybersecurity obligations, but passing an assessment doesn't tell you which exposures deserve the next hour or euro of security effort.

What we do

Translate applicable requirements into a security baseline, connect them to assets and ongoing security work, then use business context and risk appetite to identify where the organization needs to go further.

The payoff

Build compliance evidence through continuous security work while keeping investment focused on reducing risk—not producing evidence for its own sake.

Use case · Attack surface sprawl

You can't secure what you forgot exists.

The situation

Cloud adoption, SaaS, temporary projects, acquisitions and infrastructure changes continuously create internet-facing assets. Internal inventories rarely tell the whole story.

What we do

Continuously discover your external attack surface and correlate what attackers can see with internal asset and business context—surfacing unknown, forgotten and unmanaged infrastructure.

The payoff

Find exposed assets before they become the easiest way in, then give relevant exposures business context, ownership and a next action.

Use case · Remediation throughput

A vulnerability backlog isn't a strategy.

The situation

Security tools produce more findings than an SME IT team can reasonably fix. Technical severity alone does not tell you where limited remediation capacity will reduce the most meaningful risk.

What we do

Prioritize exposures using exploitability, reachability and business context. Validate where more evidence is needed, then mobilize remediation with clear ownership and guidance.

The payoff

Spend scarce IT capacity on the exposures that matter first. Reduce meaningful exposure instead of optimizing for the number of vulnerabilities closed.

Use case · Industrial & OT exposure

See the exposure. Don't touch the line.

The situation

Industrial environments combine long-lived OT, newer IT and externally connected services. Intrusive testing can create operational risk, while incomplete visibility leaves external exposure difficult to understand.

What we do

Start outside-in. Identify externally observable industrial and supporting infrastructure, map relevant dependencies and add business context without requiring intrusive scanning of production systems.

The payoff

Understand where external cyber exposure could threaten operations and focus deeper investigation where the potential consequence justifies it.

Use case · Board & risk reporting

Report the risk, not the scanner.

The situation

Management needs to make decisions about investment, priorities and accepted risk. Vulnerability counts and CVE dashboards show technical activity—but rarely explain what the business should do.

What we do

Connect prioritized exposures to critical assets and business services, then show what changed, what is being remediated and what meaningful exposure remains.

The payoff

Give management a defensible view of cybersecurity: where capacity is being spent, why those actions matter and which risks remain.
