Compare / Cyber-risk quantification

Cyber-risk quantification: named vendors, and the questions a demo will not answer.

Several vendors already sell cyber-risk quantification for private equity, including portfolio-level views. This guide names them, links their own public claims, and explains what a buyer should ask before treating any CRQ output, including Valty's, as decision-ready.

Named vendors

What they publicly claim, and where to check it yourself.

Named vendors are public claims from their own sites, reviewed by Valty on the date shown. Valty has not audited any vendor product, pricing, or outcome, and does not claim exclusivity for this work.

Ask before you buy anything

These questions matter more than any feature list.

Decision & payer

Who owns the funding decision, and whose budget pays for it?

Fund management-company spend, shared-services programs, and portfolio-company operating budgets are usually different pools. Confirm who approves and who pays before evaluating any vendor.

Evidence scope

What evidence do you already have, and what would a vendor need from you?

Existing findings exports, control state, and cost data may already answer the question. Ask what inputs a vendor requires, and whether you can supply them without a new data-collection project.

Adoption & procurement

What does it take to get this approved and supported?

Security/privacy review, a DPA, hosting and subprocessor questions, and who supports you after the sale all affect real time-to-value more than a demo does.

Or hire an advisor

Do you need software, or judgment on one transaction?

Kroll publicly describes a tiered cyber due-diligence advisory service for transactions, separate from any software purchase. A February 2026 Kroll release also reports a commissioned survey of PE executives; that is context, not demand evidence for any specific product, including Valty.

Your current setup may be enough

When not to buy anything new.

If you already own a CRQ tool, run the same scenario and inputs through it and through Valty side by side. If there is no measurable gap in the decision it produces, you do not need a second CRQ tool.

Where Valty fits

A scoped, one-company funding decision.

Valty begins with one portfolio company and one funding decision. Evaluate the platform's loss estimates, costed alternatives, assumptions and evidence, then inspect ownership, approval and the supported verification path. A decision memo carries that context into review. The free demo uses illustrative data; environment coverage and terms are agreed before evaluation access.

Next step

Inspect the sample, then request a platform demo for your decision.
