Making Cyber Risk Intelligence Accessible for the European Market

Cyber risk is no longer a purely technical concern. It has become a core element of how European organizations operate, compete, and comply. While threats are increasing in frequency and sophistication, the ability to translate these risks into actionable intelligence remains uneven. This gap is particularly visible across the mid-market corporate segment, where organizations face enterprise-level exposure without comparable resources. ENISA’s latest 2025 data shows that nearly one in three organizations have not conducted a cybersecurity assessment in the past 12 months, while 28% still require more than three months to patch critical vulnerabilities, a figure that rises materially among SMEs.

At the same time, expectations are rising. Companies are no longer evaluated by their clients solely on whether they can detect threats, but also on how effectively they can understand, prioritise, and act on them.

Our investment in QuoIntelligence reflects the view that cyber risk intelligence is moving from a specialized capability in large enterprises toward a foundational layer of modern organizations of all sizes.

Europe is entering a new era of cyber accountability. Regulatory frameworks such as NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, and TIBER-EU are raising the bar for how organizations identify, assess, and document cyber risk. These regulations extend far beyond large enterprises. Tens of thousands of mid-sized companies – often operating in critical infrastructure, industrial production, logistics, or financial services – are now required to demonstrate robust and auditable risk intelligence processes. The mid-market segment covered by NIS2 and DORA directives is estimated to include over 180,000 entities, which should give QuoIntelligence a total addressable market of around €10 billion inthe European Union alone.

At the same time, cyber risk is no longer isolated. It increasingly intersects with supply chains, geopolitics, and operational dependencies, creating a more complex and interconnected environment.

Despite this, the market remains structurally imbalanced:

• Enterprise-grade platforms are powerful, but designed for organizations with dedicated analyst teams
• Mid-market companies face similar risk exposure, but lack the capacity to process raw data or manage alert-heavy environments
• Data residency and compliance requirements are becoming central to purchasing decisions, particularly in Europe

The result is a clear gap: an abundance of data, but limited clarity at
the decision-making level.

QuoIntelligence takes a fundamentally different approach to cyber risk intelligence.

Instead of providing raw data feeds, the company delivers “finished intelligence” – contextualized, prioritized insights tailored to different stakeholders across an organization. The platform transforms large volumes of data into outputs that can be understood and used beyond cybersecurity teams. Gartner names preemptive cybersecurity as its #1 strategic trend for 2026, a market signal that risk intelligence is shifting from detection-and-response toward action ahead of impact.

This approach is built on two integrated components:

• Mercury, QuoIntelligence's Unified Risk Intelligence (URI) platform - continuously collects, correlates, and prioritizes cyber, digital, supply chain, and geopolitical risk signals.
• Karla, the conversational AI analyst layer that sits across Mercury - a multi-agentic framework giving every level of the organisation a natural-language interface to QuoIntelligence's finished intelligence.

The distinction is not only technical, but conceptual. QuoIntelligence focuses its solution consistently on usability and decision-making relevance.

Customers across regulated European sectors such as manufacturing, financial services, transportation and logistics, and critical infrastructure, use QuoIntelligence or threat intelligence, supply-chain monitoring, executive and reputational risk management, and proactive detection of advanced malware campaigns targeting specific verticals. Adoption typically begins with one acute use case and expands as customers consolidate their risk view on a single platform.

Across all scenarios, customers emphasized that QuoIntelligence significantly increased the efficiency of their cybersecurity teams, driven by proprietary collection technology that onboards new sources autonomously and quickly, delivers a low single-digit false-positive rate, and supports takedown timelines measured in hours rather than days.

One of QuoIntelligence’s defining characteristics is its European-first design: the platform is fully hosted in the EU and built in line with GDPR and data residency requirements. This reduces friction for organizations operating in privacy-sensitive sectors such as financial services, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure, where sovereignty considerations are increasinglyrelevant.

QuoIntelligence is already working with a growing group of well-established European organizations across the public sector, financial services, and manufacturing. These customers typically operate in complex environments – often across multiple jurisdictions – and are valuing the European-first design of QuoIntelligence.
