About us

Citicus™ Limited is a private company, formed in 2000 to develop and sell world-class automated risk and compliance management tools, plus supporting services.

Our flagship software

Citicus ONE - our flagship software - equips customers to measure and manage information risk, supplier risk and other areas of operational risk enterprise-wide. It can be installed in-house or accessed over the internet via one of our hosting services. A full range of supporting services is available.

Our standing

Our software is based on 20 years of independent research into the factors that drive information risk and other key areas of operational risk and those which make risk programmes successful. This gives Citicus ONE a 'real-world' perspective which industry experts as well as our customers - rate highly, as illustrated below.

"[This] is a product that brings risk management out of the stratosphere and into the real world... What particularly impressed us is the sheer usefulness and readability of the system output; it's cleverly laid out, and the graphing systems give excellent overview information."

IDG Network Application Product of the Year Award, 2004

"Citicus ONE's function is to help company managements focus their efforts and investments where they will be most effective, and where they can drive down risk. In this respect, we felt, it tackles one of the most fundamental challenges of [in managing risk] which is to prove a return on investment."

SC Magazine Editor's Award, 2003

"The total approach is best described as enlightened without complexity. It provides a comprehensive but focussed view of risk exposure for top management as well as a federal and co-operative approach across the enterprise to implementation. Unlike many so-called risk solutions it is measured, staged and avoids the "fear factor". Many solutions ride on the coat tails of the plethora of recent legislation and regulation on risk and risk management. Citicus ONE encourages a practical approach not a text-book approach to the assessment and management of risk."

Bloor Research

"Butler Group has long evangelised about the need to view compliance and general IT governance not as a cost centre, but as an opportunity to improve working practices, offsetting the cost of compliance with real, hard long-term benefits. Citicus ONE engenders exactly this kind of approach, for which we feel it has to be commended."
