At Astragar, we unite the worlds of cybersecurity and risk management to tackle one of the most pressing challenges facing modern businesses: understanding which vulnerabilities truly matter.
Our mission is to move security conversations beyond raw threat counts and generic severity scores. Instead, we focus on the true drivers of cyber risk—threat × vulnerability × asset impact — so organizations can prioritise action based on exploitability and business relevance.
Powered by our AI-driven Vulnerability Risk Contextualization Platform, we deliver visibility that’s both technically rigorous and business-ready. We quantify cyber risk in financial terms your leadership understands, mapping vulnerabilities to the assets, processes, and outcomes that matter most. Our capabilities include:
Beyond our platform, our consulting and professional services provide in-depth risk assessments, targeted vulnerability management strategies, and bespoke solutions that align security priorities with long-term business goals.
Our name, Astragar, is derived from the Sanskrit word Astrāgāra — armory — symbolising our mission: to equip organisations with the intelligence, tools, and strategies they need to defend against the evolving threat landscape.
Astragar: the future of cyber risk quantification — contextualization.
Join us as we redefine how businesses quantify and prioritise cyber vulnerabilities—bridging security, compliance, and financial impact.
