It delivers materiality-aligned diagnostics, pillar and overall scores, and anonymized peer benchmarks, with optional sector modules. Output is an auditable, prioritized roadmap and KPI linkages, enabling sustainability, finance, risk, and operations to target investments and demonstrate control effectiveness.
EU AI Act Maturity Model: A Strategic Roadmap to Trustworthy AI
AIAs the European Union introduces the worldâs first comprehensive AI law, organizations face a stark choice: treat compliance as a cumbersome cost center or embrace it as a foundation for digital trust. The sheer density of the EU AI Actâspanning risk management, data governance, human oversight, and post-market monitoringâcan paralyze even the most agile teams.
The Gradum.io EU AI Act Maturity Model was built to break that paralysis. It is not merely a legal checklist; it is a sophisticated operational diagnostic tool. By decomposing the regulation into actionable controls across distinct domainsâincluding Governance, Technical Robustness, and Supply Chain obligationsâGradum.io offers a 360-degree view of your organization's AI posture.
Why use a maturity model? Because binary "Pass/Fail" metrics fail to capture the complexity of AI systems. Our 5-level scale allows you to pinpoint exactly where you stand: are your data practices just "Repeatable," or are they "Managed" and audit-ready? Are you effectively screening for prohibited practices, or are you exposed to maximum liability?
Organizations using the Gradum.io Maturity Model gain immediate visibility into their legal exposure. They transition from reactive panic to proactive governance, securing their license to operate in the EU market while protecting their brand reputation. In an era where trust is the ultimate currency, Gradum.io provides the ledger.
Cyber Security Health Check
Cyber SecurityCybersecurity reporting suffers from a fatal translation error: Security teams speak in "vulnerabilities" and "patches," while Boards speak in "revenue" and "risk." This communication gap creates a dangerous illusion of safetyâthe "Watermelon Effect"âwhere status reports look Green on the outside, but the operational reality is Red on the inside.
The Gradum.io Cyber Security Health Check Model is a sophisticated diagnostic framework designed to bridge this gap. Unlike static compliance frameworks (like ISO or NIST) that ask if a control exists, our model asks how effective it is in the face of modern threats. It evaluates organizational maturity across 10 strategic domains, probing deep into the nuance of Identity Fabric, Cloud Infrastructure, DevSecOps, and the Human Perimeter.
Why use this model? Because modern threats like Supply Chain compromises, AI-driven attacks, and Ransomware bypass traditional perimeter defenses. This model forces organizations to confront uncomfortable truths: Is your "Air Gap" actually gapped? Is your "MFA" phishing-resistant? Do you have a "Cyber Insurance" policy that will actually pay out? By grading maturity on a rigorous 0-5 scale, it provides a prioritized roadmap for improvement. It empowers security leaders to move beyond "fire-fighting" and start building Cyber Resilienceâaligning security investment directly with business value protection.
