Product helps small and midsize firms measure cyber attack readiness

Information technology solutions provider eManagement Inc. has developed a new tool to help small and midsize businesses measure their readiness to respond to and recover from cyber security attacks.

CyberRx is designed to perform a risk assessment of all aspects of an organization’s operations and internal processes, including human factors, to determine the likelihood of a cyber security event such as a breach and gauge the financial impact it would have on the organization, Ola Sage, founder and CEO of Silver Spring, Maryland-based eManagement, said in a statement.

Among other things, the tool enables small and midsize business leaders to become more knowledgeable about the cyber risks that threaten their organizations and determine where best to invest and deploy cyber security resources, as well as conduct audits, compliance reviews and other assessments, Ms. Sage said in the release.

“Ultimately the goal of CyberRx is to help small and medium-sized businesses reduce and better manage cyber security risks,” Ms. Sage said.

CyberRx will be demonstrated at the CyberMaryland Conference being held Oct. 29-30 at the Baltimore Convention Center.
