Nisura vs Orbiq: Trust Center vs Cyber Risk Quantification (2026)
The Nisura Team ·
Orbiq and Nisura are both EU-hosted and both built for the NIS2/DORA era — but they externalise different things. Orbiq is a Trust Center platform that turns your internal compliance work into shareable, verifiable proof for buyers and auditors. Nisura is a CRQ engine that turns your external exposure into a euro loss figure. Here is the honest distinction.
The one-line difference
Orbiq publishes your posture as proof others can trust. Nisura measures the financial exposure behind that posture, in euros. Proving compliance vs. pricing the risk.
What Orbiq does well
Orbiq (Hamburg-based, EU-hosted) is a Trust Center platform that connects your existing ISMS, SharePoint, Confluence or Drive to a branded trust center with layered access — public, restricted or NDA-gated — so each stakeholder sees the right level of detail. Built for NIS2 and DORA, it adds live vendor registers, incident reporting with audit-logged timestamps, AI-assisted questionnaire responses, and continuous monitoring, with EU data residency, watermarking and full audit trails. If your pain is proving and sharing your compliance posture to buyers and regulators — and shortening third-party due-diligence — Orbiq is built for exactly that.
Where Nisura is different
Orbiq externalises your evidence; Nisura externalises your risk — as a number. Nisura doesn’t manage a trust center or a document room. From your live external attack surface (a passive scan), it weights exploitable exposure by live EPSS and CISA KEV, prices the credential vector, and produces an Expected Annual Loss and loss-exceedance curve in euros, mapped to NIS2 (by tier), GDPR and DORA — the CRQ figure a board or insurer acts on. Where Orbiq collects and presents attestations, Nisura measures the internet-facing posture itself.
| Orbiq (Trust Center / GRC) | Nisura (CRQ) | |
|---|---|---|
| Primary output | Shareable trust center, verifiable evidence | Expected Annual Loss in € + loss-exceedance curve |
| Risk measurement | Attestation & document status | Quantitative — live CVEs weighted by EPSS/KEV |
| Supply chain | Vendor registers + collected attestations | Passive external exposure assessment (OSINT) |
| Onboarding | Connect ISMS / SharePoint / Confluence | A domain + business profile — minutes, no integration |
| Data residency | EU-hosted (Hamburg) | EU-hosted & operated (sovereign) |
| Pricing | Custom / quote-based | Published: Mid-Market €4,900/yr |
Use them together
They pair naturally: use Orbiq to present your posture as trusted, shareable proof, and Nisura to quantify the euro exposure behind it for the board, insurers and budget decisions. One makes your compliance legible to others; the other makes your risk legible in euros.

What is the difference between a trust center and cyber risk quantification?
A trust center (like Orbiq) collects and presents your controls and attestations as verifiable proof to third parties.
