CIQ360™ is the cyber risk rating service designed for customers assessing a potential client, partner, or supplier for cyber risks. Better than any actuarial calculation or guess, CIQ360 calculates risk by scanning the exact external domains that “the bad guys” use to assess whether the business is a worthwhile target. CIQ360 rates your client’s cyber risk in cyberspace. Cyberspace is three domains: the internet, social media and the dark web. By scanning a complete circle (360°) around them, CIQ360 can measure activity that shows if there is external malicious interest in your client that would make them a greater risk to you. The result is reported in three parts that show you your client's current external cyber risk. You can now know if they represent a high, medium or low risk, and therefore whether they are likely to pose a threat to your business, or cost you money or make you money if you are a cyber insurance provider.
“No touch” ethical engagement
CIQ360 works in cyberspace, a world outside of the control of your clients. It does not need access to the client’s offices, network or data. As the information used is public and is not owned or managed by the client, CIQ360 does not need permission to create this report. CIQ360 uses ethical processes and techniques to generate a rating and does not breach any laws to deliver this service.
1. It scans cyberspace – the internet, social media and the dark web – for activity focused on your client. It then rates the scan results using trained Artificial Intelligence. Using AI, CIQ360 can distinguish between regular business activity and malevolent interest in your client from the wrong people. Where this type of interest exists, your client is at higher risk from a cyber-attack, hack, phishing attack, ransomware, crypto-jacking or other forms of a breach; or may have already been compromised. This step delivers the CIQ360 rating for your client (360R).
2. Using the same process to rate thousands of similar businesses, CIQ360 has already created a baseline result that your client can be compared against. Peer-to-peer comparisons within the same industrial sector and region are more valuable than comparing your clients against all industries and regions globally. This peer comparison accounts for the specific market that your client is engaged in. This step delivers a Peer-to-Peer comparison rate (P2P).
3. Es wird eine einzigartige KI-Suche im Dark Web ausgeführt, die sich auf Ihren Kunden konzentriert. Die meisten Unternehmen engagieren oder arbeiten nicht im Dark Web. Die erhöhte Aktivität in dieser Domäne weist also darauf hin, dass Ihr Kunde durch das falsche Interesse der falschen Personen gefährdet ist. Dieser Schritt liefert die Darkweb Risk Scale (DWRS).
