The reference library for modern risk teams.
Guides, explainers, a working glossary and practical tools — the frameworks, regulations and ideas shaping enterprise risk, security and compliance, written for practitioners.
The GeneSecure resources hub is a free, practical library for risk, compliance, operational-risk and security professionals. It covers the regulations and frameworks that define modern risk work — from FRTB and IFRS 17 to CPS 230, SR 11-7, CECL and AI governance — through plain-English explainers, a cross-linked glossary, and tools that help you quantify the value of running risk on one governed platform.
Read up on the rules of the game.
Substantive, jargon-free breakdowns of the regulations and methods that define risk and compliance work. Filter by topic to find what matters to your team.
CISOs don't need more alerts. They need risk context.
Adding another detection tool rarely makes a security team safer — it makes them busier. The scarce resource is context: which of today's alerts sits on a critical asset, reaches sensitive data, and could actually cause a material loss.
Black-box security ratings vs transparent cyber scoring
A single letter grade from an outside-in rating is easy to consume and impossible to act on. Transparent scoring shows the evidence, the weighting and the path from finding to number — so a disputed score becomes a fixable one.
How to report cyber risk to the board without drowning them in CVEs
Boards do not want a vulnerability scan. They want to know whether the organisation is exposed beyond its appetite, whether the trend is improving, and whether the money is going to the right places. Here is a structure that answers those questions.
FAIR cyber risk quantification: turning CVEs into board dollars
FAIR (Factor Analysis of Information Risk) is the open standard for expressing cyber risk in financial terms — translating technical exposure into an annualised loss expectancy the board can actually prioritise against.
From SOC 2 audit to live trust center
A SOC 2 report is a point-in-time PDF that starts ageing the day it is signed. A live trust center turns the same controls, evidence and policies into a continuously current, self-service view of your security posture that shortens every deal.
How to build an affordable cyber risk program with Wazuh and GeneSecure
You don't need a six-figure EDR and SIEM to run a credible cyber risk program. Open-source telemetry from Wazuh, plus open scanners, feeding a neutral risk and GRC layer, gets a lean team enterprise-grade correlation, evidence and reporting.
What is a vendor-neutral security platform (and why it beats rip-and-replace)?
A vendor-neutral security platform sits on top of the EDR, SIEM, cloud and scanning tools you already own — normalising their data into one model and adding detection, response, exposure and risk on top, instead of replacing them.
AI governance for regulated enterprises: a practical framework
AI governance is the set of policies, controls and oversight that keep AI systems safe, fair, explainable and compliant. For regulated enterprises it builds on model risk discipline and frameworks like the NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act.
CECL for credit unions: the Current Expected Credit Loss model explained
CECL replaced the incurred-loss method with a forward-looking expected-loss model for the allowance for credit losses. Credit unions and other institutions adopted it for fiscal years beginning after 15 December 2022.
Model risk under SR 11-7: a guide to model risk management
SR 11-7 is the US supervisory guidance that defines model risk management for banks. It frames model risk as the potential for adverse consequences from model errors or misuse, and demands validation, governance and an inventory.
What is FRTB? The Fundamental Review of the Trading Book explained
FRTB overhauls how banks measure and capitalise market risk in the trading book — replacing Value at Risk with an Expected Shortfall measure and a stricter boundary between the trading and banking books.
IFRS 17 explained: the insurance contracts accounting standard
IFRS 17 is the global accounting standard for insurance contracts. It replaced IFRS 4 with a single, transparent model that measures insurance liabilities at current value and releases profit as service is provided.
APRA CPS 230 guide: operational risk management for regulated entities
CPS 230 is APRA's prudential standard for operational risk management, business continuity and service-provider management. It applies to banks, insurers and superannuation trustees in Australia from 1 July 2025.
