Security Compass Receives Back-to-Back Honors for Policy Management Solution of the Year by CyberSecurity Breakthrough Award Program

TORONTO, Oct. 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Security Compass, a software security company that provides organizations with the knowledge, training, and technology to make software secure, today announced that its SD Elements platform has been named the winner of the "Policy Management Solution of the Year" award from CyberSecurity Breakthrough for the second consecutive year.

CyberSecurity Breakthrough is a leading independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global information security market today. The mission of the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work, and success in a range of information security categories, including Cloud Security, Threat Detection, Risk Management, Fraud Prevention, Mobile Security, Email Security, and many more. This year's program attracted more than 3,500 nominations from over 15 different countries throughout the world.

As application development teams are moving faster than ever to build applications and embrace agile methodologies in DevOps environments, important security and compliance measures are often skipped. SD Elements is the only solution on the market that translates complex compliance requirements into something engineers and developers can actually use. It helps organizations go from policy to procedure in a highly-automated fashion while maintaining a state of continuous compliance.

"While engineers, architects, and developers understand the technical details of software applications and how to build them, they don't necessarily know how to translate the compliance policies in legal-heavy language, or how to translate compliance specification documents into actionable tasks that would help them build a compliant system or software application," said Nish Bhalla, CEO, Security Compass. "As the world's first policy-to-execution platform, Security Compass' SD Elements equips developers with the tools to bake security into DevOps environments while enabling continuous compliance throughout the software lifecycle. We are absolutely thrilled to receive this industry award once again."

"At the end of the day, SD Elements eliminates the inefficiencies of PDFs or spreadsheets, overcomes the scarcity of talent through automation, and accelerates decision-making by aligning security, compliance, and risk priorities with business needs," says James Johnson, managing director, CyberSecurity Breakthrough. "Security Compass and its policy-to-execution platform, SD Elements, presents a true breakthrough in the crowded landscape by offering a must-have policy management solution for enterprise development teams, and we congratulate the entire Security Compass team on their 2019 CyberSecurity Breakthrough Award."
