Cyber Risk Scoring, Reimagined
Risk scoring isn’t just a formula—it’s a discipline. AttackIQ quantifies risk by asset, adversary behavior, and business impact to drive smarter decisions and measurable security outcomes through continuous practice.
Precision Risk Starts with the Right Formula
E = Σ (Pa × Ia)
At the core of AttackIQ’s risk assessment is a simple, powerful formula. By calculating across every asset, we generate a total exposure score grounded in adversary behavior, asset criticality, and business context.
- E = Expected loss from a cyber incident
- Pa = Probability of an asset being involved in an incident
- Ia = Impact of compromise for that specific asset
Quantify Cyber Risk in Business Terms
Adversary testing, asset context, and business impact work together to produce precise, actionable risk scores.
Identify What Matters Most
Ingests data from CMDBs, cloud tags, and business systems to classify assets by criticality, ownership, and sensitivity.
Validate Likelihood with Adversary Behavior
Runs real-world attack emulations to assess each asset’s exposure. Attack paths, misconfigurations, and compensating controls inform probability (Pa).
Calculate Impact in Business Terms
Maps business impact to each asset from data sensitivity to operational downtime cost to determine accurate impact (Ia).
Quantify and Prioritize Real Risk
Generates a real-time risk score based on actual exploitability and potential business loss, not subjective estimates.
Why AttackIQ Is a Smarter Approach to Risk
Legacy models rely on subjective scores and static snapshots. AttackIQ delivers real-time, validated, business-aligned cyber risk assessment.
Traditional Risk Models
- Subjective, 1–5 heatmap scoring
- Treats all assets equally
- Ignores real-world controls and gaps
- Updated infrequently
- Hard to communicate to executives

Turn Risk Insight Into Business Credibility
Deliver clarity to your security team and confidence to leadership. Show measurable progress and back every decision with data.
- Prioritize fixes that reduce the most risk
- Align investments with your most critical systems and operations
- Communicate exposure in financial terms, not technical estimates
See Your Score—And Watch It Improve
AttackIQ doesn’t just measure your risk, it shows you how to reduce it.
You’ll see exactly:
- What’s driving your score, down to the asset and attack path
- Which actions will reduce the most risk, fastest
- How your score improves as exposures are fixed and controls are validated
Never Settle for Uncertainty
Validate Your Defenses
Take the guesswork out of threat exposure management. Validate your defenses with real-world attack scenarios and focus on what matters most—managing your risk.
