The problem
High is not a number
A risk register tells you a threat is High. It does not tell you whether High means €50,000 or €50,000,000. DORA RTS Article 8 requires ICT risk expressed in monetary terms, and most organisations cannot.
What it does
Cyber value-at-risk, computed with FAIR
cVaR applies the FAIR method to your full asset inventory, modelling loss frequency and magnitude and running Monte-Carlo simulation across thousands of trials to produce a loss-exceedance curve. You read value-at-risk at the 95th and 99th percentile, conditional VaR and expected annual loss.
What cVaR reads
Full asset inventory, live
cVaR ingests asset inventory from your CMDB, discovery agent output, or NetDiagramer graph. Criticality, compliance status, cloud location and topology feed directly into the risk model — ensuring every scenario reflects your actual estate, not a sample.
What cVaR reads
cVaR ingests asset inventory from your CMDB, discovery agent output, or NetDiagramer graph. It reads your existing vulnerability data, threat intelligence feeds, and historical incident records where available. Metrology — the calibrated estimates for frequency and magnitude — can be drawn from CCI's sector-specific reference data or from your own loss history.
Agent-less edition
The current edition requires inventory input. An agent-less edition is in development: it will infer asset scope and exposure from network discovery alone, without requiring a populated CMDB. Customers already waiting for this edition can register interest on the contact page.
Why FAIR
FAIR is the only open international standard for cyber risk quantification (Open FAIR Body of Knowledge 2.0, The Open Group). It has been adopted as the quantitative method of reference in DORA RTS, NIST CSF 2.0 and ISO 27005:2022. It produces results that satisfy regulatory scrutiny in a way that proprietary scoring models do not.
