ARX Alliance Ltd.

ARX Alliance Ltd. is a specialized cybersecurity firm that operates a platform for managing third-party cyber risk within supply chains. Founded in London, United Kingdom, in 2018 by Andre Turville, the company provides a software platform designed to help organizations monitor and mitigate cybersecurity threats across their extended network of suppliers.

The founder's journey into cybersecurity was influenced by his prior work as an investment manager for a family office and operational roles in the nuclear industry, where he was exposed to discussions on cyber threats to critical infrastructure. This background highlighted the growing risk of cyber breaches originating from the supply chain, which became the foundational problem ARX Alliance aims to solve.

The company's core offering is a Third-Party Cyber Risk Management (TPCRM) software platform that allows businesses to monitor their suppliers, identify potential weaknesses, and detect cyber-attacks. The platform functions by creating a collaborative community, or alliance, of companies that work together to enhance their collective cyber defense. It consolidates standards, policies, assets, and assessments into a single secure location. Key features include real-time risk monitoring, internal and external security scans, compliance assessment tools, and simplified cyber governance for users ranging from small businesses to large enterprises.

Operating on a B2B model, ARX Alliance serves organizations looking to fortify their supply chain resilience and navigate complex regulatory environments. The business was bootstrapped initially before securing its first funding round in February 2020. As a seed-stage company, it has raised a total of $2.44 million over several funding rounds.
