What is DeNexus?
DeNexus is building the global standard of industrial cyber risk quantification. The DeRISK™ Intelligence Platform helps industrial operators, insurers and the risk transfer market quantify, reduce and transfer industrial cyber risk. Specialist AI agents express that risk in financial terms, deliver OT threat intelligence and automate cyber underwriting. DeRISK can draw on data from the OT security tools customers already run, including OT monitoring platforms and firewalls. DeNexus researches OT-specific loss types, industrial controls and how attacks move from IT networks into the plant, and builds that research into DeRISK, so results reflect how industrial sites actually lose money.
Founded in March 2019 and headquartered in Boston, with an office in London, DeNexus counts AXA XL as a strategic investor.
