The integration bridges the long-standing gap between operational security efforts and strategic business impact. By connecting SmartSuite’s robust work management capabilities—including policy management, control assessments, incident response tracking, and risk remediation—with X-Analytics’ proven cyber risk financial exposure insights, organizations can now quantify the financial value of every cyber risk initiative.
“Cybersecurity leaders have long struggled to communicate the business value of their work in financial terms,” said Jon Darbyshire, Co-Founder and CEO of SmartSuite. “Our integration with X-Analytics gives CISOs the tools to not only operationalize their cyber risk programs but also clearly demonstrate ROI on those efforts—grounded in economic impact analysis aligned with business strategy.”

With the rise of ransomware, regulatory scrutiny, and digital transformation, boards and executive teams are demanding clear, quantifiable answers about cyber risk. This integration answers that call, enabling security teams to demonstrate how their actions support the bottom line.
