Risk Signal

Risk Signal is being built

Risk Signal shows which risks hit your organization and systems, and what they cost you.

Risk Signal is being developed with an IT security team. Threat matching checks your tech stack, systems and versions against CVEs and CISA's KEV list and gives a vulnerability that hits a deadline and an owner, and FAIR works out the risk it raises in money for management's next report. The core is tasks, projects and wiki, and you add the modules. If you are interested, join the waitlist for early access.

The core: tasks, projects and wiki

Running in the pilot

A security team needs one place for its work before any regulation or module makes sense.

The core is tasks and projects with deadlines and recurrence, a wiki with pages under the projects and an AI assistant that answers from your own data. Every customer has it, and the modules go on top.

Today: Tasks, projects, the wiki and the AI assistant run in the pilot.

  • Tasks and projects with deadlines and recurrenceRunning in the pilotphases 2 and 4
  • Wiki with pages under the projectsRunning in the pilotphase 6
  • AI assistant that answers from your dataRunning in the pilotphase 6

With the modules: from CVE to management report

With threat matching, ISMS and FAIR, threats, controls, risks and the report are connected, so a new vulnerability moves the figures management sees. The pictures are from the pilot with made-up data.

Threats to your own systems

Read in an SBOM, or enter product and version on each system. Threat matching matches them every hour against NVD and CISA's KEV list and gives each match a deadline by severity. With the OSINT module, news from open sources that names your products, suppliers or domains sits next to them.

Threats: vulnerabilities by priority with KEV, EPSS and deadline, and the chosen vulnerability with its linked risk.

Controls with evidence

In ISMS, every control has a rule, an owner and a deadline. Every completion and approval is stored with name and time, so you can show the auditor what was done and when. With the DORA module, the control plan builds the controls from the requirements, and the register of information sits in the same place.

Cycle: controls with their rule, deadline, next deadline and last completion.

Risk in money

FAIR sits on top of the risk register's 5 × 5. Give a range for how often an event happens and what it costs, and FAIR works out the loss in a normal and a bad year. A vulnerability exploited on a linked system raises the risk until it is fixed.

Risks, In kroner: the portfolio's loss in kroner, the curve of the chance of losing more than an amount, and the risks with their share.

The report for management

The management report brings the period together: controls on time, risks above the appetite, incidents and vulnerabilities. Lock a version once management has it, so you can always show what they were told.

ISMS

Partly in the pilot

Controls, risks, assets and incidents must fit together before a regulation can be documented. If you already run an ISMS in another tool, you can skip this module.

A full ISMS: controls with evidence and four eyes, findings, risks with 5 × 5, assets, vendors and contracts, incidents, the management report and the auditor's access. The regulations, CTEM and Config build on it.

Today: Controls with evidence and four eyes, risks, incidents, assets and the management report run in the pilot.

  • Controls with evidence, four eyes and findingsRunning in the pilotphase 11
  • Risks with 5 × 5 and residual riskRunning in the pilotphase 16c
  • Assets, systems and componentsRunning in the pilotphase 17b
  • Incident registerRunning in the pilotphase 15
  • Management report with locked versionsRunning in the pilotphase 16d
  • Auditor access and audit packageRunning in the pilotphase 14a
  • Policies and documentsPlanned on the roadmapphases 17e and 17f
  • Common control framework across regulationsPlanned on the roadmapphase 19

FAIR

Running in the pilot

Management decides in money. A risk that sits as a square in a 5 × 5 does not say what it costs.

Give a range for how often an event happens and what it costs, and FAIR works out the loss in a normal and a bad year, the portfolio and the return on a measure. Without ISMS, FAIR has its own simple risk list; with ISMS, the money sits on top of the risk register.

Today: Risk in money, the portfolio and measures run in the pilot.

  • Risk in money with FAIRRunning in the pilotphase 18c
  • Measures with cost and returnRunning in the pilotphase 18c

Threat matching

Running in the pilot

The vulnerability that matters most is the one that hits your own systems and is already exploited. It should work even if your ISMS lives elsewhere.

Your systems, components and versions are checked every hour against NVD, CISA's KEV list and EPSS, and each match gets a deadline by severity and appears in the daily brief. Without ISMS, the module has its own list of systems; with ISMS, a serious match becomes a finding on a control.

Today: Vulnerability matching against CVE, KEV and EPSS runs in the pilot.

  • Systems, components and SBOMRunning in the pilotphase 17b
  • Vulnerability matching against CVE, KEV and EPSSRunning in the pilotphase 18b

DORA

Running in the pilot

Financial entities must be able to show the supervisor that they meet DORA and its technical standards, requirement by requirement.

The requirements of the regulation and its eight technical standards become a control plan of narrow controls, each with an owner and a deadline. Major ICT incidents are classified and get their deadlines, and the register of information can be sent to e-Reg.

Today: The catalogue, the control plan, the incident deadlines and the register of information run in the pilot.

The requirements are worded in our own words and are still being reviewed.

Requires ISMS.

  • Requirement catalogue with the technical standardsRunning in the pilotphase 12a
  • Control plan with profile and templatesRunning in the pilotphase 13a
  • Classification and deadlines for major ICT incidentsRunning in the pilotphase 15
  • Register of information for e-RegRunning in the pilotphase 16a

NIS2

Planned on the roadmap

Essential and important entities must, under NIS2 and the Danish NIS2 act, notify quickly and show that management has approved the measures.

The module will work out whether you are an essential or important entity and keep your registration with the authority up to date. A significant incident gets three deadlines: early warning within 24 hours, notification within 72 hours and a final report within a month.

Requires ISMS.

  • Requirement catalogue for NIS2 and the Danish NIS2 actPlanned on the roadmapphase 19
  • Classification, registration and notificationPlanned on the roadmapphase 24f

GDPR

Partly in the pilot

Anyone who processes personal data must be able to show their records, answer data subjects on time and report a breach within 72 hours.

The module brings together the records of processing, data subject requests with their deadlines, impact assessments and processor agreements, and links them to your systems and vendors.

Today: An incident involving personal data gets the article 33 deadline. That runs in the pilot.

Requires ISMS.

  • Breach deadline under article 33Running in the pilotphase 15
  • Requirement catalogue with the articlesPlanned on the roadmapphase 19
  • Records, requests, impact assessments and processor agreementsBeing builtphase 24e

AI Act

Planned on the roadmap

Companies that build or use AI need to know which systems they have, which role they play and which duties the risk class brings.

An AI inventory where each system gets a role and a risk class. The duties of the class become proposed controls, such as AI literacy and transparency.

Requires ISMS.

  • Requirement catalogue for the AI ActPlanned on the roadmapphase 19
  • AI inventory with role, risk class and dutiesPlanned on the roadmapphase 24g

CTEM

Planned on the roadmap

A setting changed since the last audit, and a finding nobody has looked at, are often what attackers find first.

Continuous threat exposure management: the module checks Microsoft 365, Entra ID and your cloud with read-only access, takes in your own scans and handles each finding.

Requires ISMS.

  • Checks of Microsoft 365 and Entra IDPlanned on the roadmapphase 21a
  • Checks of AWS, Azure, GCP and KubernetesPlanned on the roadmapphase 21b
  • Remediation with recheckPlanned on the roadmapphase 21d
  • Import of your own scansPlanned on the roadmapphase 21e

OSINT

Partly in the pilot

News about attacks and vulnerabilities comes from thousands of sources, and public sources know more about you than you think.

The module has two parts. Threat picture: Risk Signal's engine reads open sources, groups them into stories with a score and a trend, shows the ones that name your systems, vendors, domains or sector, and sends a daily brief. Digital footprint shows what public sources know about you: subdomains and certificates, mail security from DNS, open exposed services, accounts in known breaches and keys in public code. The footprint reads public sources and visits only your verified domains as an ordinary visitor would, and breach and scan data are shown only for domains you have verified.

Today: The threat picture runs in the pilot: the engine, the stories under Threats and the daily brief.

  • Threat picture: the engine that reads the open sourcesRunning in the pilotphase 18a
  • Threat picture: relevant stories and the daily briefRunning in the pilotphase 18b
  • Digital footprint: subdomains and certificatesBeing builtphase 18f
  • Digital footprint: verified domains, mail security, internet scans, accounts in known breaches and keys in public codeBeing builtphase 24i
  • Digital footprint: DNS hygiene, reputation, visits to verified domains, look-alike domains and the vendors' footprintBeing builtphase 24l

Dark Web

Being built

When a ransomware group lists you or one of your vendors on its leak site, you should know before your customers do.

The module holds the ransomware groups' victim lists against your own organisation, your domains and your registered vendors, and shows look-alike domains. It only reads and keeps only metadata: name, date, group and source. We never see or show leaked files or credentials.

  • You and your vendors on leak sitesBeing builtphase 24c

Config

Planned on the roadmap

Much of the modern cloud is described as code, and a flaw in the code becomes a flaw in every environment built from it.

The module scans Terraform and OpenTofu files through Trivy and finds resources outside the code. Risk Signal provides ready-made, secure OpenTofu modules for logging, MFA, encrypted storage and networks.

Requires ISMS.

  • Scanning of Terraform and OpenTofu through TrivyPlanned on the roadmapphase 21c
  • Secure OpenTofu modules from Risk SignalPlanned on the roadmapphase 24h
