RISK MANAGEMENT

Stop guessing. Start measuring.

Speculo gives security teams a structured workflow for running cyber risk assessments, scoring risks against a configurable matrix, and tracking every control and remediation through to digital sign-off.

Where it hurts

Where things break down.

OPS SECURITY $ EXECS
01· Where things break down

Your security team and your leadership speak different risk languages.

Technical risk ratings mean something to a security practitioner. They mean nothing to a Chief Executive making budget decisions. Without a shared risk language, every conversation between ops, security, and leadership requires a translator that doesn't exist.

02· Where things break down

No visibility into risk position between audits.

You run an assessment in Q1. By Q3, half the controls have changed and three remediations were closed without anyone updating the register. The next audit starts from scratch because nobody knows what is current.

03· Where things break down

Risk cuts across every layer. Most teams only see their part.

Identity, devices, networks, and data each carry different risks, and different teams own different pieces. Your security team sees the full picture. Your operations team doesn't. Your board sees none of it in terms they can act on. The risk exists. The shared view doesn't.

How Speculo fits

What changes when you use Speculo.

TARGET POSITION RISK INITIATIVES NEXT STEPS P. 1 APPENDIX READY CABINET PAPERS
01· How Speculo fits

Know your risk position, your target, and your next funded step.

The Next Steps Report maps your current risk position against your target, shows the gap, and surfaces the prioritised initiatives that close it. Everything you need to plan your security programme and present it to the people who fund it.

LAST YEAR THIS YEAR
02· How Speculo fits

Prepare for your next audit without starting from scratch.

Your evidence from previous assessments is already in the platform. When the next audit arrives, you start with what you have. The same evidence that answered last year's questions is ready to reuse, updated where something has changed and intact where nothing has.

03· How Speculo fits

Optimise your audit. Focus on the controls that reduce risk the most.

Not every control is equally important. Speculo scores controls by the risk reduction they deliver, so your assessment concentrates effort where it matters. Your current maturity is tracked against your target, and the gap tells you exactly where to focus next.

SOURCE OF TRUTH 42% CONTROL INCONSISTENCY
04· How Speculo fits

One control change. Reflected across every assessment.

Controls that apply across your organisation shouldn't be updated in every assessment separately. Enterprise controls in Speculo propagate automatically, so your control landscape stays consistent and your assessments always reflect the current state.
