About Castor Cyber Risk

Assess your position. Chart your course. Reach your destination.

Castor Cyber Risk helps organisations — from start-up to multinational — build resilience against cyberattacks. The question is not whether an attack will happen, but when.

Mission

Insight and a concrete action plan.

Assumptions and complacency increase risk. That is why Castor provides insight into the risks facing your organisation — and a concrete action plan.

Quickly identify where cyber threats can originate. Create a priority plan and ensure everyone is on board to address the threat. That is how an organisation stays cyber resilient.

Vision

Cyber security is about direction.

Cyber security is not about fear, but about direction. Organisations that understand their risks make better decisions. They know where they are vulnerable, what takes priority, and how to demonstrate that information security is in order.

That is how cyber risk stops being a brake on growth and becomes an integral part of good governance.

The name Castor refers to the bright star that generations of navigators relied upon. We use this image deliberately: in the cyber landscape, every organisation needs a fixed point of reference — a beacon that remains constant, even as the threat evolves.

Founder

Eric Staats

With a background in digital forensic investigation and extensive experience in legal and finance, Eric quickly identifies where cyber threats originate — and where organisations lose their grip.

His approach combines the eye of an investigator with the discipline of an auditor and the knowledge of an ethical hacker:

  • CISM — Certified Information Security Manager
  • ISO 27001 Lead Implementer & Lead Auditor
  • CISSP — Certified Information Systems Security Professional
  • CEH — Certified Ethical Hacker

Not theoretical baggage, but the tools to truly understand risk.

“My no-nonsense approach resonates with organisations. Security needs to be effective, not unnecessarily complex. I don’t believe in tick-box compliance — checking boxes without addressing the root of the problem achieves nothing. I start with a thorough analysis, set clear priorities and work towards a concrete action plan.” Eric Staats, founder
