Resources & Guides
Practical frameworks, checklists, and templates developed from direct advisory engagements with institutional investors across European markets. Each resource reflects the operational realities of Private Equity firms and Family Offices managing complex cyber risk across multi-entity portfolios.
Educational Resources for Institutional Investors
Cybersecurity governance at the institutional level demands more than technical expertise — it requires frameworks that translate complex risk landscapes into actionable intelligence for investment committees, board directors, and operational leadership. The resources below have been developed through Intarmour's direct experience advising PE firms and Family Offices on cyber risk management, regulatory compliance, and incident response preparedness.
Each resource is designed to be immediately operational: structured checklists that can be deployed within existing diligence workflows, templates that integrate with board reporting cadences, and playbooks that provide clear decision frameworks when time-critical response is required. These materials reflect European regulatory requirements including NIS2, GDPR, and DORA, and are calibrated to the specific governance obligations facing institutional capital managers.

Developed from Practice
Every resource published by Intarmour originates from real advisory engagements. Our checklists reflect the assessment methodologies deployed across dozens of M&A transactions. Our compliance guides incorporate lessons from implementing NIS2 programmes across regulated entities in multiple EU jurisdictions. Our templates encode the reporting frameworks that institutional boards and investment committees have validated as decision-useful.
These resources provide a foundation for internal capability building. For organisations requiring tailored implementation, each resource connects to the corresponding Intarmour advisory service where our team can adapt frameworks to specific portfolio structures, regulatory environments, and governance requirements.
