Case Study: a global 500 manufacturer uncovers hidden cyber risks with DeNexus

Global 500 Manufacturer Unveils Hidden Cyber Risks

A global 500 manufacturer faced the challenge of creating a worldwide, risk-based cybersecurity strategy. They needed a comprehensive inventory of their cyber risks in financial terms and a standard framework to compare risk across their many facilities. To tackle this, they engaged DeNexus and its DeRISK platform to quantify these hidden risks and refine their internal models.

DeNexus deployed its DeRISK platform at key sites, running cyber risk quantification models using a combination of industry data and internal telemetry from Claroty. This solution revealed previously unknown vulnerabilities and provided a clear, data-driven view of potential financial losses. A key result was the ability to compare cybersecurity maturity across facilities, which directly informed where to allocate funds. Importantly, DeNexus's modeling validated that using internal telemetry significantly refined the risk outputs, changing the Value at Risk calculation from thousands to millions of dollars and justifying a global rollout of new detection systems.
