StratexSystems Partners with Cyber Security Experts to Develop Strategic Cyber Security Solution

Online, December 12, 2011 (Newswire.com) - StratexSystems, a provider of integrated strategy execution and risk management solutions is pleased to announce the launch of CYSPEX (Cyber Strategic Programme Execution), a unique, comprehensive cyber security solution designed to provide boards and senior executives with a holistic view of their organisational cyber security status.

Developed with the combined Cyber Security and Risk-Based Performance Management expertise of Templar Executives and Manigent, CYSPEX enables organisations to monitor and implement the delivery of their cyber strategy while managing and mitigating the organisation's cyber risks in line with their risk appetite. Not only does this ensure your organisational information is secure and managed through its lifecycle, it also means information is delivered in a timely, relevant and valued manner.

An organisation's value is increasingly made up of its information assets, such as patents, designs and custom databases, and how well they exploit them. As a result, these are increasingly coming under attack from a range of individuals, including commercial and governmental parties. In this environment, cyber security has to be a board level responsibility and solutions must deliver tangible business benefits.

Recent figures show that 92% of large organisations are currently experiencing losses from cyber incidents which involve their information being lost or stolen and infrastructures being taken offline, or more worryingly, taken over. Poor cyber security can cost your business directly, through fines and litigation fees, and indirectly, by damaging your brand value, competitive advantage, productivity and revenue streams.

As experienced Risk Management Software Providers, StratexSystems are aware of the impact cyber risk can have on businesses: CYSPEX (Cyber Strategic Programme Execution) is a unique and comprehensive cyber security application designed to provide boards and senior executives with an holistic view of their organisational cyber security posture. Developed with the combined Cyber Security and Risk-Based Performance expertise of Templar Executives and Manigent, CYSPEX enables organisations to monitor and manage the delivery of their cyber strategy while managing and mitigating the organisation's cyber risks in line with their risk appetite. Not only does this ensure your organisational information is secure and managed through its lifecycle, it also means information is delivered in a timely, relevant and valued manner.

StratexSystems CEO and Founder, Andrew Smart said: "We are excited to be partnering with Templar Executives to develop this innovative cyber security solution. Cyber Security is moving up the agenda of our clients but we believe there is a need for a strategic approach which is aligned to business strategy".

Templar Executives CEO and Founder, Andrew Fitzmaurice said "The UK Government and UK PLC are increasingly recognising the holistic nature of the range of threats posed by cyber-attacks, and every day we seem to wake up to reports of another cyber security breach. Indeed, recent events such as the Stuxnet incident, and incidents at leading organisations such as HMRC, HSBC and Zurich Insurance plc, demonstrate the need for a comprehensive solution which enables a mindset change regarding Cyber Security. With our partners, StratexSystems we believe that CYSPEX will provide, for the first time, organisations with an opportunity to develop that much needed solution".
