Experience and expertise:
A history of managing risk
As former consultants, Acuity founders Simon Marvell and Richard Mayall recognized there were significant gaps in risk management leaving companies exposed to unacceptable risks. Believing there was a better way, they created Acuity and the STREAM Integrated Risk Manager platform.
Leadership
Purpose-built for risk management from the ground up, Acuity’s STREAM platform provides an integrated view of risk bringing cyber risk together with IT and operational risks to provide a comprehensive view of risk and compliance across the enterprise. The platform models all of the complex relationships that exist in cyber security risk management and presents the results in business terms via an intuitive user interface such that security leaders and executives can make informed risk decisions. The executive team draws on its deep expertise and industry experience to continually innovate and help companies prepare and protect themselves while embracing digital transformation.
