CyberSaint
A Breakthrough Product and Approach to Cybersecurity
George Wrenn, Founder & CEOCyberStrong, a CyberSaint service as a software (SaaS) platform, builds a solid cybersecurity foundation with a simple strategic approach by delivering a comprehensive scorecard that provides measurable results, for all stakeholders and executive management to review. The platform is based on breakthrough patent-pending cognitive computing technology, powered by Amazon Web Services artificial intelligence and IBM Watson. “CyberStrong implements NIST, ISO, IEC, COBIT, NERC and other bespoke security frameworks with simple to use workflows, understandable reports and executive dashboards. The platform delivers dynamic playbooks, driving continuous improvement based proactive cybersecurity program model," states Wrenn. Additionally, the platform optimizes cybersecurity program investments, bringing new levels of efficiency, risk measurement and cost savings through AI powered recommendations.
Furthermore, the U.S. Department of Defense has issued regulations for defense contractors to comply with the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to protect controlled unclassified information.
It is time to manage cybersecurity as a dedicated business function. Organizations must be able to continuously measure, analyze, mitigate and report the organization's cybersecurity posture to all constituents
To address this requirement, CyberStrong provides a proven methodology and measurement system needed to streamline DFARS compliance and accelerate NIST SP 800-171 adoption. Organizations can quickly attain DFARS compliance without detailed knowledge of NIST SP 800-171 and its myriad of specified controls with CyberStrong in a matter of hours. “CyberStrong establishes an organization’s DFARS baseline, leveraging artificial intelligence and prioritizes gap remediation based on lowest cost and shortest path to compliance,” says Wrenn. Moreover, the platform measures overall DFARS compliance score, tracks progress, dynamically produces required SSP & POAM documents, and provides status reports for management, contract officers, and auditors.
CyberSaint is poised to provide tremendous value as organizations migrate away from a point solution approach toward viewing cybersecurity as an ongoing, adaptive process that engages more resources within a company. “We honor your existing investments, and instead of displacing your current cybersecurity technology, our platform creates synergy to improve cyber resiliency,” remarks Wrenn. The CyberSaint team brings an unmatched level of expertise with a combined experience of over hundred years in cybersecurity. Cybersecurity must be managed proactively, not reactively. CyberSaint helps measure, translate, communicate, and track a cybersecurity program that is precisely tailored to the organization's business requirements, customer demands, major security frameworks, and standards.
CyberStrong is the only offering that delivers the NIST CSF national framework with its open scoring model and remediation engine powered by AWS AI. This allows cyber bench marking as a service along with the cognitive recommendation to optimize cyber budget against objectives bringing new levels of efficiency and cost savings. CyberStrong has plans to expand into Europe in 2018 to help EU organizations meet many new cybersecurity regulations.
