Paul and Lars met during their studies and quickly discovered their complementary strengths in working together.
Over the years, Paul and Lars have advised various organizations on cybersecurity in their role as (freelance) consultants. They regularly encountered difficulties when communicating about cyber risks. Discussions with decision-makers were difficult or got stuck, due to challenges in communicating cyber risks in a language understood by decision-makers.
Polar Risk was born from the need to make cyber risks clear, tangible, and actionable, with one clear ambition: to set a new standard for cyber risk management.
Polar Risk provides insight into relevant cyber risks and quantifies them in euros; cyber risks become tangible and understandable for decision-makers. This makes choosing and prioritizing these risks transparent and financially sound.
Paul is co-founder of Polar Risk. He combines technical depth with strategic insight, gained at both large corporates and scale-ups. His mission: to make risks understandable and manageable.
Lars is co-founder of Polar Risk. From his earlier experience as cyber risk consultant, he has advised mid-sized and large companies across continental Europe on cyber risk. Lars stands for clear analyses with concrete, actionable advice.
