Risk Quantifier (RQ) translates cyber risk into clear financial terms, allowing security leaders to prioritize defenses and communicate impact in the language of business. By mapping MITRE ATT&CK techniques and vulnerabilities to financial loss scenarios, RQ enables cost-justified security decisions. Together with TI Ops and Polarity, RQ ensures that operational efforts align to risk-based priorities — bridging the gap between threat activity and executive decision-making.

Ventiv IRM is integrated risk management software designed to provide the insights needed to monitor and lower the user's Total Cost of Risk (TCoR). It features real-time analytics for decision support by integrating data from internal and external sources in one system while connecting risk mitigation activities across the business.
Well-Suited Scenarios: Reporting to management where financial risk metrics are required. - Vulnerability prioritization when you need to rank issues by real exploit risk and financial/business impact. Less-Appropriate Scenarios: Fast-changing cloud environments where asset data needs updates too frequently for accurate models required all the time. - Incident investigation, as ThreatConnect Risk Quantifier™ (RQ) is not designed for real-time check
Ventiv IRM works great for companies with a large number of sources of data, record management, and reporting needs. The system will be able to handle multiple users, processes, or other functions that a large company may need. Ventiv IRM would not be a good fit for companies that may not be large enough to justify the cost of a powerful platform like IRM.
Support Portal allows direct access to support tickets, their status, and having programmers/developers reach out directly to me to clarify my requests.
Taking a big project and putting it into smaller, measurable pieces that move the project from beginning to end.
Dashboards can be customized to offer more options, especially for technical teams that require deeper drill-downs and also more simpler and user-friendly.
Processing large data files can be slow sometimes, especially during large builds or bulk updates.
Risk modules sometimes need manual intervention for multi-client environments, which can be time-consuming.
Setting up a new Advance Query report - sometimes I run into glitches
When creating/implementing a match merge, the two claims that are set to merge, need to be typed EXACTLY the same (UPPERCASE & lowercase matching on both, if one is all caps and the other is lowercase, the match merge is not successful)
I do wish there was a way to self-match two claims instead of waiting for the match merge.
I rate ThreatConnect Risk Quantifier™ (RQ) an 8 because it’s generally easy to use once the integrations are set up. The dashboards, risk scores, and financial impact metrics are very straightforward and help make quick decisions for executives. However, the initial configuration and model tuning can be a bit complex it's not a perfect 10 for me.
Very usable. The team is always suggesting "tweaks" that allow for easier flow, better understanding of the information needed. This even includes in moving categories/sections in a records around so that the flow of the record is better
Support will reach out to me and I LOVE that. Often I want to show them what I see and they have always been willing to jump on a Teams meeting so I can do that. This has also helped me understand how to explain things better (support speak). This has led to closing tickets, completing projects sooner.
The actual implantation was not good. The system is fully customizable so Ventiv was ready to give us what we wanted; however, we never had a system so we didn't fully understand what we wanted. Since then, we hit "reset" and we are steadily moving forward.
ThreatConnect Risk Quantifier™ (RQ) stacked up better than RiskLens, better for our organization, is mainly because it integrates directly with our scanners, SIEM, and CMDB, allowing automatic, real-time risk monitoring. It also combines exploit intel, asset value, and vulnerability data more efficiently, giving us clearer technical priorities for the business impact. We chose ThreatConnect Risk Quantifier™ (RQ) because it provides faster, more actionable risk scoring with less manual modeling than RiskLens.
While Ventiv IRM is a bit more expensive than another platform we have used and evaluated, we get a lot of value that helps us make informed risk management decisions. The system works for us, and not the other way around. We're able to use integrations from other sources (such as Navex for reporting and our TPA, and Gallagher-Bassett for financial claim information). The system is easy to use, update, and manage, which is helpful too.
