Company profile

researched Aug 2026

CyberGRX was a Denver, Colorado-based provider of third-party cyber risk management (TPCRM/TPRM) software. The company built what it described as a global cyber risk exchange, connecting enterprises with their vendors and other third parties so that assessment data could be shared rather than collected repeatedly by each customer. The exchange combined standardized third-party assessments with data analytics, real-world attack scenarios and threat intelligence to produce predictive risk insights and a portfolio-wide view of security gaps across a customer's third-party ecosystem.

The platform was designed to help risk and security teams identify, prioritize and reduce risk across large vendor populations, with capabilities positioned around portfolio analysis, benchmarking and collaboration between third parties and their customers. In 2023 CyberGRX was acquired by ProcessUnity, a Marlin Equity Partners portfolio company, and merged with ProcessUnity to form a combined software and data platform for third-party and cybersecurity risk management.

Business model

CyberGRX operated its exchange on a shared-cost model, in which participating organizations shared the cost of standardized third-party assessments and benefited from joint negotiation, community benchmarking and reuse of validated vendor assessment data across the network.

Traction

By the time of its Series C the company had raised $59 million in total funding from investors including Scale Venture Partners, Aetna Ventures, AllegisCyber, Bessemer Venture Partners, The Blackstone Group, ClearSky, GV, MassMutual Ventures and TenEleven Ventures.

Latest developments
