Mutuelle Unéo & quantifying cyber risk: aligning decisions with risk appetite.
Back in 2020, when Unéo was assessing the benefits of subscribing a cyber insurance policy, the company decide to use Citalid’s Cyber Risk Quantification solution to inform its decision-making.
The contribution of Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) for Unéo was confirmed when, in 2024, the company won a RFP (Request for Proposal) issued by a french Ministry and was able to demonstrate its cyber risk resilience.
In addition, the Citalid solution has been adopted by other business lines within the company: the risk department uses the platform to demonstrate its risk management strategy while Unéo’s finance department uses it to meet some of the DORA directive’s requirements.
Use of financial metrics for communication purposes as part of a RFP
As part of the process of responding to the Due Diligence carried out from the RFP, Unéo used the data generated by the Citalid platform to demonstrate its defensive maturity in the face of cyber risk and to justify its decision not to subscribe a cyber insurance.
Based on actionable data and financial metrics, Unéo was able to provide a complete view of its risk exposure. The dynamic enrichment of Citalid’s calculation models with Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) data convinced Unéo that it risk was controlled and decisions were taken in an informed manner.
The Cyber Risk Quantification software is an indispensable tool for our organisation. It allows me to quickly and accurately demonstrate the impact of security measures.
Thanks to the financial metrics provided by Citalid, I can demonstrate to our finance department that my investments can transform a major risk into a controlled one.
This level of clarity makes budgetary decisions much easier. In addition, the software assesses the relevance of taking out cyber insurance, providing a clear view of the benefits and costs.
This tool is invaluable not only for the CISO, but also for business teams, who can use it to justify their decisions to the supervisory authorities. In short, it's an essential tool that I couldn’t miss, unlike other cyber softwares where the question still arises.
