Quantify loss
Name the company, loss objective, funding question, evidence pathway, and assumptions included in the supported evaluation.
Board funding decision
Put one cyber funding decision in front of the board.
Give directors the requested decision, its alternatives, and the assumptions they need to challenge. Start with a free 30-minute platform demo. Evaluate the supported evidence, investment comparison, and reporting workflow for your company before agreeing broader platform use.
The board memo
What goes in front of the board, and what it leaves out.
The memo states the decision requested, the alternatives and their cost horizon, the modeled annual loss with its assumptions, the evidence gaps and what could change the recommendation, and the owner and review date. A missing evidence distinction is a reason to validate before asking the board for funds, not a reason to round the number up. Read the fictional sample memo and its methodology before you request a platform demo.
Who needs to be in the room
The memo names who owns the ask before it reaches the board.
A board funding ask still traces back to the same three roles:
- Sponsor: brings the funding question that is going in front of the board.
- Budget approver: the company's own budget approver, who the board expects to see named against the ask.
- Evidence owner: approves the exports the board memo is built from.
Two things keep the ask honest in the room:
- A missing evidence distinction is a reason to validate before asking for funds, not a reason to round it up
- Mandatory actions, available budget, and implementation capacity bound what the board can actually approve
Fund next
Compare supported alternatives against the company budget. Keep assumptions, missing evidence, and what could change the recommendation visible.
Authorize change
The board sees the requested decision, alternatives, cost horizon, modeled annual loss, evidence gaps, owner, and required approval.
Prove reduction
At the scheduled next review, report current evidence and state whether movement is modeled or observed. Unsupported reduction claims remain outside the board update.
Give the board a clear funding choice.
Request the free platform demo. It is reviewed personally, with a reply and a private booking link within two business days if there's a fit.
The free platform demo comes first. Agree evaluation access, supported reporting capabilities, and commercial terms separately; a demo does not include a custom boardpack or a peer benchmark.
