Core Capabilities

Our AI-Powered Trust Intelligence Platform

TrustQuant links cloud APIs, Linux server telemetry, and credential access logs into one closed-loop resilience platform quantifying cyber risk before it erodes trust, not after.

cybersecurity digital trust platform dashboardTrust Quantification
Module 01

Trust Quantification Engine

AI models that measure trust across people, partners and ecosystems producing a standardised Digital Resilience Rating from 0 to 100.

Our proprietary SME Digital Resilience Rating Engine learns over time from individual infrastructure states, analysing SSH configurations, open port vulnerabilities, and credential access permissions to produce a continuously refreshed, defensible trust rating for every business.

Module 02

Risk Analytics & Anomaly Detection

Detect hidden risks and anomalies with predictive intelligence identifying configuration drift before it becomes a breach or a financial loss event.

Instead of hard technical checklists, TrustQuant's Risk Ontology Layer detects patterns that routinely lead to operational disruption, data breaches, or supply chain failures translating technical alerts into commercially contextualised warnings and remediation suggestions.
network relationship mapping and intelligenceRelationship Intelligence
Module 03

Relationship Intelligence

Map connections, patterns and influence across ecosystems giving enterprise procurement teams quantifiable, evidence-backed supplier-risk outputs.

The Supply-Chain Risk Ledger aggregates vendor ratings into a unified dashboard, enabling enterprise procurement departments to easily manage Scope 3 operational risks across their supplier network without relying on easily falsified self-attestation questionnaires.

Module 04

Real-Time Insights Dashboard

Actionable dashboards for faster and smarter decisions translating technical security indicators into credit risk parameters commercial lenders and insurers require.

Our Cyber-to-Lending Risk Translation Layer (CLRTL) transforms technical configuration failures directly into financially interpretable credit risk indices that tie to projected cash flow volatility and lending probability of default (PD).

Module 05

Secure & Scalable Infrastructure

Built on enterprise-grade security with cloud scalability the Agentless Metadata Extraction Protocol (AMEP) extracts data without intrusive agent software.

AMEP securely integrates with AWS, GCP, and Azure APIs and Linux server configurations without requiring performance-heavy agent installations, enabling rapid SME adoption and making non-invasive continuous monitoring a reality for resource-constrained small businesses.

Phase 02 · Year 2

Full UK Launch & Model Refinement

The TrustQuant Resilience Rating scales to 50–100 SME client nodes across Manchester, Birmingham, and South-West tech hubs, with plug-and-play API connectivity to UK commercial lending portals, credit scoring bureaus, and major MSP systems (ConnectWise, Autotask).

SME Configuration Drift Autocalibration (CDAP) models self-calibrate their rating outputs based on real UK SME drift behaviours, and the Trust Passport generation becomes fully automated, reducing compliance processing from months to minutes.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is the cyber-to-financial trust gap?

+
It's the gap between a business's technical security posture and its ability to prove digital trustworthiness to lenders, insurers, and enterprise buyers. Over 78% of UK SMEs fall into the "low" or "very low" categories of cyber resilience, yet the vast majority rely on static, easily falsified self-attestation questionnaires that provide no real-time financial risk visibility. TrustQuant bridges this gap with verified, continuously refreshed evidence.

Do I need to install agent software on my servers?

+
No. TrustQuant is fully agentless. Our Agentless Metadata Extraction Protocol (AMEP) uses secure, read-only REST API connectors to extract infrastructure metadata from AWS, Azure, and GCP environments without requiring any performance-heavy agent software to be installed on your hosts. Secure cloud connection is achievable in under 10 minutes.

How is this different from BitSight or SecurityScorecard?

+
BitSight and SecurityScorecard rely on passive external scanning of public IP addresses and DNS records they are completely blind to an SME's internal cloud configurations, Linux server hardening states, and credential access patterns. Neither translates technical posture into credit risk parameters that commercial lenders require. TrustQuant is the only platform that bridges internal infrastructure evidence directly to financial underwriting intelligence, at SME-affordable pricing.

What results have pilot SMEs seen?

+
An 8-week pilot across 5 UK SME locations showed a 25% average reduction in high-risk technical vulnerabilities, with cloud-heavy startups achieving 40% risk reduction funded directly by identified cloud-cost savings. User satisfaction was 4.3/5 for underwriting and lending use cases, and operators reported immediate improvements in cloud-cost efficiency, backup restore confidence, and supply-chain reporting.

Is TrustQuant compliant with UK data protection regulations?

+
Yes. TrustQuant is built around strict "privacy-by-design" principles, extracting read-only technical metadata and never writing or modifying system data. The platform is natively aligned with UK GDPR (Data Protection Act 2018), the NCSC's Cyber Essentials Plus v3.3 guidelines, the UK Cyber Governance Code of Practice, and the upcoming UK Cyber Security and Resilience Bill with all client telemetry encrypted using a hybrid TwoFish/RSA cryptographic model.

How does the Trust Passport help secure better financing?

+
The SME Trust Passport is a cryptographically verifiable digital asset that consolidates all verified infrastructure evidence and financial risk translation into stakeholder-specific reports. SMEs can instantly share this with commercial lenders to demonstrate repayment capacity, with cyber-insurers to secure lower premiums (up to 25% reduction), and with enterprise procurement teams to clear supplier onboarding audits turning digital resilience into a direct commercial competitive advantage.
