Cyber breaches have become more commonplace in today’s data rich, information economy. Companies are frequently faced with cyber challenges, the biggest of which are preventing breaches from occurring, shutting breaches down when they do occur and mitigating, investigating and recovering when breaches happen. With these challenges, the most important work is done before a breach in the form of a cyber risk assessment. A cyber risk assessment is a process that measures the risk to the organization of a breach event, including identifying relevant threats and vulnerabilities, their likelihood of being exploited and the expected impact if those vulnerabilities were to be exploited. The X1 Enterprise Cyber Risk and Breach Notification Assessment addresses the problem by giving cybersecurity staff, forensic investigators, IT and corporate counsel visibility into the location and scale of risk from corporate data and provides a quick, cost-effective baseline of cyber risk and readiness.
