They include CyGov’s third-party risk management solution, to better understand threats from third-party suppliers and partners, which too often go undetected. CyGov’s internal risk and compliance management solution will help alleviate the costly consequences of non-compliance or a breach/attack. Meanwhile, CyGov’s board risk reporting solution will help R3 present such risks to customers’ executive teams in the clearest possible way.
CyGov CEO, Yair Solow said “This is another wonderful partnership for CyGov, continuing the momentum of recent months. Both companies are thoroughly committed to helping businesses across North America to understand and mitigate their cyber risk.
