DeNexus Highlighted in Gartner Cyber-Risk Framework With Focus on OT Quantification

According to a recent LinkedIn post from DeNexus, the company is identified as a Sample Vendor in the CPS Risk Management category of Gartner’s Hype Cycle for Cyber-Risk Management, 2026. The post underscores Gartner’s view that insurers are increasingly requiring cybersecurity controls in operational technology, and that the fastest growth in cyberattacks is occurring in production and operations rather than traditional IT.

The LinkedIn post also notes that Gartner places Cyber-Risk Quantification at the “Peak of Inflated Expectations” with a High benefit rating, while advising buyers to focus on high-consequence scenarios and link quantification outcomes directly to budget decisions. DeNexus suggests its DeRISK CRQ platform sits at the intersection of CPS Risk Management and Cyber-Risk Quantification by combining OT visibility with financial loss modeling tailored to industrial environments.

From an investor perspective, association with Gartner’s Hype Cycle and positioning in a High-benefit category may signal growing market recognition for DeNexus’s addressable niche in OT-focused cyber-risk analytics. The emphasis on insurers mandating OT controls and on the sharp rise in production-centric cyberattacks points to a potential structural demand driver for solutions that bridge technical security and financial risk decisions.

The post highlights that DeRISK CRQ has been implemented in more than 300 deployments across power, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure, which could indicate early commercial traction in regulated, high-consequence sectors. If this adoption base expands and if Gartner’s guidance accelerates budget allocation toward quantification tools, DeNexus could benefit from increased spending on cyber-physical risk management and potentially improve its competitive position within industrial cybersecurity analytics.
