Complí and Swan Island Networks Announce Partnership to Deliver Integrated Cyber Security Awareness, Compliance, and Education Solution
Portland, Oregon (PRWEB) July 30, 2013 -- Complí, the leader in compliance obligation management software, and Swan Island Networks, provider of Cybero™ cyber security awareness services, announce a partnership to help SMB and enterprise customers address and mitigate rapidly growing human-related cyber security threats. Swan’s Cybero™ services and Complí Portfolio's™ compliance solutions will integrate to provide a complete suite of cyber threat awareness, compliance and education solutions. These solutions will empower organizations and their workforces to recognize cyber security threats and enable effective organization-wide compliance with cyber security policies and processes.
The cyber world is fluid, unpredictable, and rapidly evolving. Researchers are finding that more than two-thirds of all serious cyber security breaches are the result of human error or insider attack. It is critical that individuals across the organization be aware of cyber security threats, policies and the appropriate process for addressing cyber attacks or potential breaches.
When complete, the Cybero and Complí solution suite will bring cyber security awareness, education and compliance procedures to the entire workforce. Boards of directors, executives, physical security professionals, risk and compliance leaders, HR directors, Information Technology teams and the broader workforce need to understand human related cyber security threats and how to stop them. This makes cyber-governance one of the most important new frontiers within the governance, risk and compliance (GRC) landscape.
Cybero brings a fast, agile, cyber threat-awareness and training service that helps your workforce reduce cyber risk in real-time, minimize human error and build a human firewall. Cybero provides:
• Targeted email alerts: up-to-the-minute alerts on the latest cyber threats—filtered for individual needs and preferences
• Real-time monitoring of social and news media related to cybercrime, warfare, activism, threats and vulnerabilities, legislation, rights and privacy, and more.
• Vulnerability and phishing assessments: simulated phishing tests and email exposure reports assess and identify your workforce’s vulnerabilities.
• Cyber security training: employee self-paced online training, online resource library of best practices, and security awareness training led by renowned “white hat” hacker Kevin Mitnick—teach your workforce the best practices needed to avoid cyber threats that could put the organization or themselves at risk
• Hints and Tips: actionable hints and tips for avoiding the latest social engineering attacks, and best adhering to developing cyber best practices.
With Complí Portfolio™, users will have the ability to take Cybero’s robust cyber security awareness and training capabilities and integrate them into organizational workflows and processes. This method helps ensure that the workforce is aware of best practices to support individual and organizational security and promotes compliance regarding corporate policies and processes. Portfolio™ is a secure cloud-based system that keeps all of a company’s forms, approvals and compliance materials in a centralized location and provides customizable workflows and measurement capabilities.
“Every enterprise, regardless of size, is a target for cybercriminal activity. Today’s cybercriminals are smarter, better organized and developing sophisticated tools and malware code that is making it difficult to defend your data. It is critical to understand your risks, improve your organization’s cyber-governance and develop the appropriate policies, procedures, training and general awareness to help diminish these risks,” shared David Childers, CEO of Complí.
“Cyber-threats directed toward employees are growing exponentially and organizations need to engage their workforces to be aware and educated on current threats, best practices and organizational processes to defend against these attacks,” said Swan Island’s Founder Charles Jennings. “The integration of Cybero™ and Portfolio™ will allow Complí clients and their employees to have immediate access to emerging cyber threat information and training to help reduce cyber risks. We believe this partnership, which combines the unique cyber-risk intelligence of Cybero with Complí’s process improvement workflows and compliance services will create a proactive and powerful cyber security and risk mitigation tool.”
