Your Use Case
For managing cyber risk.
Your challenges. Your regulations. Continuous proof, accelerated, robust cyber posture.
Quod Orbis is trusted by companies worldwide...
the pressures you face.
Whether you operate in a tightly regulated industry or face mounting compliance obligations, Quod Orbis has helped organisations just like yours replace reactive firefighting with continuous, automated resilience.
"We’ve had some light bulb moments in the platform where particularly around vulnerabilities, the CCM platform has highlighted things we simply didn’t know and the trending information will start to demonstrate areas we need to keep an eye on.”
Chris Taylor, Head of IT, Martin Baker
Built for the industries where risk has no margin for error
Your sector carries unique risks, operates under distinct pressures, and is held to standards that most technology vendors don’t truly understand. Quod Orbis was built by people who do. Every industry below reflects real challenges we have helped organisations overcome, with our CCM solution at the centre.

Select a sector to see the pressures your teams face and how Quod Orbis turns point-in-time assurance into continuous, board-ready evidence for your sector.
The challenge
Financial services firms operate across fragmented ecosystems with hundreds of third-party counterparties, real-time regulatory reporting demands from the FCA, SEC and ESMA, and boards that are now personally accountable for cyber risk. Point-in-time audits no longer satisfy regulators. Evidence of continuous control effectiveness is expected — yet most firms still rely on spreadsheets and manual evidence packs to prove it.
How Quod Orbis helps
Our CCM solution connects to your entire control ecosystem — trading systems, cloud infrastructure, third-party feeds — and provides continuous, automated evidence of control effectiveness. Regulators and boards see the same real-time risk picture. Audit preparation that once took weeks now takes hours.
The challenge
Banks face an accelerating volume of regulatory change — over 300 events per year on average — while simultaneously managing operational resilience mandates, DORA compliance obligations, and legacy infrastructure that creates blind spots in control coverage. Boards are now required to own cyber risk, not delegate it. Yet most banks still track compliance in spreadsheets.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis automates the evidence collection and control monitoring that banks previously handled manually. DORA requirements, PRA operational resilience expectations, and internal risk frameworks are mapped and monitored in real time — with board-ready dashboards that translate technical control status into executive language.
The challenge
Insurers face a growing paradox: they price and underwrite cyber risk for clients, yet their own security posture is increasingly under scrutiny. Solvency II demands granular controls data. Policyholder data spans dozens of jurisdictions. And inconsistent controls across underwriting, claims and distribution lines create gaps that regulators and cyber attackers exploit in equal measure.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis delivers a unified control view across all lines of business, continuously monitored and mapped to Solvency II, GDPR and relevant Lloyd’s requirements. Board members receive a real-time dashboard that translates technical control status into the language of risk governance — not IT reporting.
The challenge
Pharmaceutical companies are among the highest-value targets for nation-state cyber attackers — intellectual property, clinical trial data and manufacturing systems are all in scope. GxP compliance demands validated, auditable control environments. M&A activity introduces unknown control gaps. And regulatory submissions increasingly require evidence of information security controls alongside clinical data.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis provides a single, continuously updated view of control posture across all sites, systems and acquired entities — including GxP-validated environments. Onboarding newly acquired businesses into your control framework takes weeks, not months. Regulatory evidence is always current, always ready.
The challenge
Healthcare is the most-breached sector globally for the thirteenth consecutive year. Yet security teams are chronically under-resourced, operating under NHS DSP Toolkit, GDPR and (for US-connected organisations) HIPAA requirements simultaneously. System availability is a patient safety issue, not just an IT concern. And critical supplier chains — across NHS trusts, private providers and technology partners — create exposure that is impossible to manage manually.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis gives healthcare organisations continuous monitoring of controls mapped to DSP Toolkit, GDPR and clinical systems requirements — with automated alerting when a control drifts or fails. For the first time, teams identify issues before they become incidents. Supplier risk is visible, measurable and continuously tracked.
The challenge
OT/IT convergence has created attack surfaces that most manufacturers have never had to defend before. Supply chain cyber requirements from automotive, aerospace and defence primes demand demonstrable security assurance. NIS 2 brings legal obligations for operators of essential services. And ransomware targeting production environments can halt manufacturing lines within minutes — at a cost that dwarfs any security investment.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis bridges OT and IT security visibility in a way that no traditional GRC tool manages. Controls across production systems, corporate IT and supplier connections are monitored continuously and mapped to NIS 2, ISO 27001 and customer security requirements — in a single dashboard that the board and the CISO can both use.
The challenge
Retail operates at scale, at speed and increasingly across dozens of channels, franchises and technology platforms. PCI-DSS compliance spans every payment touchpoint. Customer data volumes create significant GDPR exposure. Seasonal peaks — Black Friday, Christmas, summer sales — demand always-on resilience when the business can least afford an incident. And franchised or distributed models create inconsistent control application across the estate.
How Quod Orbis helps
Quod Orbis gives retail security teams continuous visibility of controls across every channel, site and system — including franchised locations. PCI-DSS, GDPR and internal security requirements are monitored in a single platform. Peak trading periods become confident moments, not stressful ones.

The regulations keeping your board awake — and how we help you own them
The EU’s most significant cyber law is now in force. If you operate essential or important services across Europe, your obligation is no longer theoretical — and senior management are personally liable for failures.
What keeps your team up at night
- Determining whether you qualify as essential or important — and what that means in practice
- Embedding risk management measures across systems, supply chains and third parties
- 24-hour incident reporting requirements — almost impossible without a continuous monitoring foundation
- Board accountability: senior management now personally liable for NIS 2 compliance failures
- Evidence of ongoing security hygiene — regulators want proof, not attestations
How Quod Orbis helps
- Continuous real-time monitoring of all controls mapped to NIS 2 requirements
- Automated incident detection and alerting to support 24-hour reporting obligations
- Supply chain and third-party risk visibility built into your control framework
- Board-ready dashboards translating technical control status into executive risk language
- Audit trails that satisfy regulatory inspection at any point in time, not just year-end
Certification is table stakes. The real challenge is proving your ISMS works continuously — not just when the auditor visits. ISO 27001:2022 raised the bar. Most organisations are still catching up.
What keeps your team up at night
- Evidence burden: proving Annex A controls are effective every day, not just in audit week
- Scope creep as cloud, SaaS and hybrid infrastructure expand beyond defined ISMS boundaries
- Maintaining Statement of Applicability currency as the business and threat landscape evolves
- Resource strain — your team cannot manually monitor hundreds of Annex A controls
- Surveillance audits catching gaps that internal teams missed between certification cycles
How Quod Orbis helps
- Full ISO 27001:2022 Annex A control mapping — automated and always current
- Continuous evidence collection replacing manual evidence packs entirely
- Scope monitoring ensuring new cloud assets and systems are automatically captured
- Automated exception identification and remediation workflow — before auditors find themSoA management integrated into live control monitoring
DORA is live. For financial entities across the EU and UK equivalents, operational resilience is now a legal obligation — not a best practice. Senior leaders are personally responsible. And the evidence requirements are more demanding than anything that came before.
What keeps your team up at night
- ICT risk management: demonstrating a complete, tested and continuously evidenced ICT risk framework
- Critical third-party ICT providers: mapping and monitoring your full dependency chainIncident classification and 4-hour initial reporting requirements to competent authorities
- TLPT coordination: threat-led penetration testing across interconnected systems
- Board accountability: senior management personally responsible for DORA compliance failures
How Quod Orbis helps
- ICT risk framework monitoring aligned to DORA’s five pillars — in real time
- Third-party and concentration risk visibility across your full ICT supply chain
- Automated incident correlation and classification to meet reporting timelines
- Control effectiveness evidence mapped to DORA regulatory technical standards
- Executive risk reporting that satisfies both internal governance and regulatory inspection
“Regulators aren’t asking us to try harder. They’re asking us to prove it. Quod Orbis is how we prove it.”
