WHAT COOs AND RESILIENCE LEADERS FACE TODAY
Operational Resilience is more complex
Regulatory scope continues to grow, supply chains are more fragmented, critical infrastructure more complex, and client assurance expectations keep rising. Pressure on cost and headcount stretches BAU teams thin, leaving senior executives personally exposed when something breaks.
​
Fragmented Ownership
Cyber incidents sit with security. Service outages sit with operations. Stakeholder communications sit with a different team entirely. Nobody has the single operational picture — so decisions get made on partial information, under pressure, in public.
Point-in-Time Thinking
Annual audits and static risk registers were built for a world that changes once a year. Regulators no longer accept that. They want to see resilience proven continuously, not certified once and filed away.
Third-Party Blind Spots
Vendors, suppliers, and sub-processors introduce risk that most organisations can't see past the first tier. A fourth-party failure can take down a critical service just as easily as a direct one — and most TPRM programmes still run on questionnaires that go stale the day they're submitted.
Regulatory Sprawl
DORA, NIS2, the FCA's operational resilience rules (PS21/3), ISO 27001 — each has its own language, its own evidence requirements, its own timelines. Mapping one framework rarely satisfies another, so teams end up duplicating work across overlapping mandates.
Manual, Disconnected Tooling
Shared drives, generic ticketing systems, and standalone spreadsheets can hold information, but they can't show live dependencies, automate escalation, or produce audit-ready evidence on demand.
The USPs that operate Armus2 from a compliance checklist
Most operational resilience tools digitise the annual audit. Armus2 was built to remove the reasons an annual-audit approach falls behind regulatory expectation in the first place. Seven things distinguish the platform from a typical point solution.
​
1. One connected model, not five disconnected exercises
Important business services, dependencies, people, resources, risks and third parties all live in a single mapped model. When something breaks, you already know what else it touches, its impact priority, and who owns the response — without manually cross-referencing five separate systems.
​
2. Continuous evidence, not annual scrambles
Exercising, testing, response logs, team actions and third-party oversight are captured as you go, so you're always audit-ready instead of always catching up in the weeks before a review.
​
3. Cross-framework mapping, done once
DORA, NIS2, the FCA's resilience regime, MAS, CBUAE, ISO 22301, ISO 27001 and GPG are mapped from the same underlying control and evidence set — not re-run as a separate project for every regulator.
​
4. Built by practitioners who've sat in the war room
Armus2 is designed by people who've written the incident playbooks, mapped the RACI matrices, and sat in the war room when a P1 incident hit at 2am. That's not theory — it's built into how the platform works.
​
5. Fragmented ownership solved structurally, not procedurally
Cyber, operations and stakeholder communications converge on one operational picture instead of three teams working from three separate versions of the truth, so the structure of the platform closes the gap that a policy document can only describe.
​
6. Faster, calmer incident response
A structured, repeatable process spans cyber incidents, service outages and crisis events, so decisions in the moment are made on evidence, priorities and existing playbooks, not improvised under pressure.
​
7. Priced and packaged for real adoption
Delivered at 50-60% below typical market rates on common platforms, with straightforward ease of use, so operational resilience maturity isn't gated by budget or a lengthy implementation programme.
Armus2 Takes the Weight Off
Armus2 is a single adaptive platform that unifies Operational Resilience, Risk Management, Continuity, TPRM, Crisis and Incident Management — so the picture that used to live across multiple teams with several tools now lives in one place instead.
We understand the problem because we've built the response frameworks ourselves. Armus2 is designed by practitioners who've written the incident playbooks, mapped the RACI matrices, and sat in the war room when a P1 incident hit at 2am.
That's not theory — it's built into how the platform works.
​
1. One Operational Picture
Services, dependencies, people, resources, risks and third parties, all mapped, all connected. When something breaks, you already know what else it touches, its impact priority and response owner.
​
2. Continuous Evidence, not Annual Scrambles
Exercising, testing, response logs, team actions and third-party oversight are captured as you go, so you're always audit-ready instead of always catching up.
3. Cross-Framework Mapping
Map your controls once, and see how they satisfy DORA, NIS2, the FCA's resilience regime, MAS, CBUAE and ISO 22301 / 27001 and GPG simultaneously — instead of redoing the same work for every regulator we have already done that.
​
4. Faster, Calmer Incident Response
A structured, repeatable process from cyber incidents, to service outages, and crisis events, so response decisions are made on evidence, priorities and existing solutions — not improvised in the moment.
​
5. Your Register Stays Current
Your critical services, risks, continuity and third-party inventory updates as relationships change, are constant, not once a year when someone remembers to update the spreadsheet.
​
Why organisations move to Armus2
Building this capability in-house usually means stitching together a GRC tool, a continuity tool, a TPRM tool and a set of spreadsheets, then paying a team to keep them reconciled by hand. Armus2 replaces that stitching with one connected model, built and maintained by practitioners who have run the programmes it now supports.
​
The result for a COO or resilience leader is straightforward: fewer tools to license and administer, one evidence base instead of several, response decisions made on live dependency data rather than a document nobody's opened since it was written, and a platform priced to make that maturity achievable rather than aspirational. When a regulator, client, or board asks you to prove resilience, the answer is already assembled, your way, not reconstructed under pressure.
​
We Speak Regulator, So You Don't Have To
​
Our experience, knowledge and understanding is part of the Armus2 culture. From manufacturing to digital, finance, healthcare, government and commercial — we've taken the time to understand global to local governance and regulation, industry standards and best practice. DORA, NIS2, the FCA's operational resilience regime (PS21/3), ISO 27001, MAS, CBUAE, NIST SP 800-61, ISO 22301, GPG — we have it covered. Instead of treating each regulation as a separate project, Armus2 maps your controls, evidence and third-party data once, and shows you where that single set of work satisfies multiple frameworks at the same time. When a regulator asks you to prove it, the answer is already there, with confidence, not three weeks away.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions on operational resilience
How is this different from the GRC or continuity tool we already have?
Most tools store what you tell them. A service entry, a test result, a policy PDF. Armus2 cross-references that data against operational reality, your critical services, your dependencies, your third-party assessments, your incident history and so it tells you when a service has actually drifted outside appetite, not just when it's next due for review.
​
Does Armus2 replace our existing important business services register?
Either. Most organisations start by importing their existing register and control framework as-is, then lets Armus2 keep it live from there. Your taxonomy and scoring methodology don't have to change on day one. Your business, your way.
​
How long does implementation take?
It depends on the size of your service catalogue and how many frameworks you're mapping to. But because we are simple and configurable to your business, far less than any software you have implemented to date. Talk to us about what a realistic rollout looks like for your organisation, we will give you examples and our experience so you get an honest answer rather than a generic one.
​​
Can Armus2 map to a framework you haven't listed?
Yes. Control mapping in Armus2 isn't a fixed list, nothing is. Show us the framework you work to, whether that's a named standard or something built in-house, and Armus2 maps to it.
