RiskVision 7.5 Enables Good Cyber Hygiene to Achieve Immediate and Effective Defenses Against Cyber-Attacks

Next Generation Big Data Risk Management Solution Offers Essential Building Blocks for Cyber Security Operational Risk Intelligence at Enterprise Scale

RSA Conference USA 2015

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--()--Agiliance®, Inc., the Big Data Risk Company™ and leading independent provider of integrated solutions for Operational and Security Risk Intelligence, today announced RiskVision® 7.5, which empowers organizations to achieve good cyber hygiene by making sure that they’re able to protect and maintain systems and devices appropriately using cyber security best practices (e.g., the NIST Cybersecurity Framework). With RiskVision 7.5, organizations of all sizes and from all industry backgrounds can finally adopt the necessary best practices and apply continuous monitoring and mitigation to achieve immediate and effective defenses against cyber-attacks.

One of the leading challenges in protecting against cyber-attacks lies in the fact that security intelligence is distributed across multiple silos and managed by different stakeholders that rarely collaborate with each other. However, board members are demanding quantitative risk data that spans all business operations, while business units need to neutralize the impact of cyber-attacks. In this context, RiskVision 7.5 provides the essential building blocks to aggregate, visualize, measure, and take action on Cyber Security Operational Risk Intelligence in near real time. RiskVision 7.5 provides the necessary insight into Key Risk and Key Performance Indicators, including metrics for aging, coverage (versus sampling), operational efficiency, recover point objective (RPO), recover time objective (RTO), and time-to-remediation.

RiskVision’s patented technology aggregates and correlates live data from over 70 leading business, security, IT, and identity software products to produce actionable intelligence and metrics understood by business users, security professionals, and boards alike.

Notable RiskVision 7.5 innovations in Cyber Security Operational Risk Intelligence include:

  • Cyber Risk Visualization
    Provides high-level and interactive views of the relationships of systems (entity collections) to their components (entities), systems relationships with other systems, and components relationships with other components. Enables users to rapidly distinguish criticality of systems and their components, systems and components that are adjacent to critical systems and components, types of components within a system, and types of relationships, leading to focusing mitigation actions on business critical components and increasing board / auditor transparency. Expandable to visualize causal chain of threats, security controls, vulnerabilities, and asset criticality.
  • Asset Vulnerability Actions
    Delivers the ability to group vulnerabilities by level of the organizational hierarchy and by custom attributes, improving the operational efficiency of an organization’s security operations team and ultimately enabling faster time-to-remediation of related or similar vulnerabilities to strengthen cyber resilience.
  • Big Data Analytics
    Augments current business intelligence capabilities to offer a broader set of chart types, advanced calculations, and more efficient search for data in reports, as well as scalability beyond 1.5 million assets and thousands of concurrent users. This enables organizations to analyze large risk data sets and operationalize risk-based decision process automation across the entire enterprise.
  • Hardened Access Controls
    Introduces enhanced security properties, access control mechanisms, and data confidentiality using a threat model designed to address first- and third-party threat vectors and attack paths in both on premise and cloud-based environments. This provides high resilience against insider threats and ensures cloud security readiness.

“The biggest obstacle to meeting board-level requirements for quantitative risk data and the business’ need to neutralize the impact of cyber-attacks is the lack of centralized security risk intelligence infrastructure,” said Joe Fantuzzi, president and chief executive officer at Agiliance. “RiskVision 7.5 delivers the essential building blocks needed to maintain good cyber hygiene and manage cyber security operational risks both effectively and efficiently. Many large organizations are using our software to implement a centralized model to assess risks in real time.”

Some of the leading organizations who deployed or expanded their use of RiskVision over the last 12 months include Advance Auto Parts, Bell Canada, Deutsche Bank AG, DNB, E*TRADE, Fannie Mae, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB), Fiserv, Genentech, IOOF Australia, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Novartis, Raytheon, Safeway, UnitedHealth Group, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
