          basis of their Virtual CISO and compliance consulting services
       b. Easier integrations unlocks the ability to offer STREAM® as a
          white-labelled Cyber governance, risk and compliance (GRC) module in a
          larger individual software vendor's ecosystem
  2. Product-Led Growth (PLG)
       a. Simple design and configurability enable customers to sign up and
          start realising value rapidly without the need for Acuity to perform
          manual onboarding
       b. PLG unlocks growth via word of mouth from customers talking about the
          benefits of STREAM® both within and outside of their organisation
       c. Greatly enhanced vendor management capabilities mean that Acuity RM is
          delivering a stand-alone third-party risk management application in
          addition to serving as an enhancement to the existing STREAM® product.

 

Additional Benefits for Investors

 

The Directors believe that the launch of NextGen STREAM ® will generate significant benefits for Acuity and for its shareholders. These benefits include:

 

    --  Faster growth and larger markets - a white label version vastly expands
        the global market opportunity and allows faster growth
    --  Greater operating leverage - less manual work delivers greater client
        value
    --  Faster, easier, more frequent updates enabled by improved development
        capability mean that Acuity is well positioned to win new business in
        the short and long-term
    --  Lower running costs - expected to reduce costs by c. £150,000 pa

 

David Rajakovich, Chief Executive, commented ; "Security teams are drowning in alerts while real threats slip through undetected. NextGen STREAM ® cuts through the noise by correlating threat data with business context, giving CISOs the prioritised intelligence they need to make faster, more informed decisions. Instead of chasing false positives, our clients can focus on the risks that actually matter to your business."
