Cyber without disruption: the Citalid-Tenacy connector combines risk and compliance

Ah, the eternal dilemma between risk management and compliance... Companies often pit them against each other, and the tools available on the market tend to reflect this dichotomy. However, the two approaches are complementary in the context of your cybersecurity strategy. This is illustrated by the famous ANSSI pyramid: compliance is a necessary foundation for addressing major risks.

At the same time, scenario-based analysis tailored to each organization provides targeted security enhancements.

To streamline this dialogue between compliance and risk management, Citalid and Tenacy have joined forces and developed a bidirectional connector. This enables faster, more reliable risk analysis with less effort and centralized processing.

Synergy between compliance and risk management

If you already use Citalid, you know that it is a leading solution for identifying and quantifying your cyber risks financially. Thanks to its risk quantification technology, this platform helps CISOs and risk managers make the right decisions about cyber risk management levers: reduction (cybersecurity investment) and sharing (cyber insurance).

For its part, Tenacy is your ally in managing compliance in every aspect:

  • implementation of regulatory obligations;
  • preparation and follow-up of audits;
  • third-party management;
  • risk management;
  • reporting...

The platform integrates risk management, a process that is now essential for many compliance requirements.

Thanks to the connection between the two platforms, our mutual customers benefit from optimized management, with seamless integration between compliance and risk analysis issues.

From Tenacy to Citalid: a more accurate and rapid view of your defensive maturity

The first pillar of the Citalid-Tenacy connector concernsthe integration of data from Tenacy into Citalid. Without this connection, your organization's defense profile is entered declaratively in Citalid: you manually evaluate yourself on each of the measures in a security reference framework of your choice (e.g., CIS v8, the ANSSI hygiene guide, or ISO 27001). The Citalid-Tenacy connector eliminates the need for this manual entry. The compliance score for each requirement is automatically fed into your Citalid defense profile. This makes the profile much more accurate, as Tenacy scores are themselves calculated using your operational information: controls in place, effectiveness of security measures, etc.

Citalid then combines these internal factors (your defense profile or defensive maturity) and external factors (dynamic Cyber Threat Intelligence data) to accurately quantify your cyber risks. The connector eliminates the need to manually enter your defense profile and makes it more reliable, making your risk analysis faster and more contextualized.

The reports and indicators produced in the Citalid platform enable CISOs to demonstrate to senior management the effectiveness of the work carried out by their operational teams and its impact on the company's exposure.

From Citalid to Tenacy: centralized and effective risk management

Identifying and quantifying risks is essential, but they must also be dealt with effectively. This is where integration with Tenacy comes into its own.

The risks identified in Citalid are sent to Tenacy, along with security recommendations. These enrich the risk treatment plans in Tenacy, providing greater visibility into their impact and associated compliance.

A concrete example: if an EDR installation rate is collected in Tenacy, it is automatically linked to ransomware risks, but also to applicable compliance requirements.

The connector therefore ensures rigorous synchronization between risk analysis and risk treatment in Tenacy, while guaranteeing consistency with overall security and compliance objectives.

A virtuous circle for enhanced cybersecurity

The connection between Citalid and Tenacy doesn't stop there. Once risks have been addressed and security measures implemented, Citalid can retrieve new compliance assessments from Tenacy. This process allows forcontinuous adjustment andrefinement of risk analysis and strengthens cybersecurity management.

Thanks to this interconnection, organizations benefit from an integrated approach, combining rigorous risk analysis based on operational data with proactive and optimized management of security and compliance actions.

With the Citalid-Tenacy connector, your organization gains efficiency, precision, and peace of mind when it comes to cyber challenges!
