TEMPE, Ariz, Sept. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ –CYR3CON, an industry leader in predicting and preventing cyber-attacks through the use of artificial intelligence, announces today its selection by TAG Cyber as a Distinguished Vendor in the 2021 Security Annual.

CYR3CON uses artificial intelligence combined with data mined from mine hacker communities to predict which vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, allowing companies to effectively manage their security workload. CYR3CON clients, which include several Fortune 500 companies, are able to compare their known vulnerabilities with CYR3CON analysis to plan an evidence-based path forward for their security programs, saving time, resources and mitigating the highest risks to their organizations.

CYR3CON recently launched a novel assessment for enterprises powered by its platform – called a Find Ignored Threats (F.I.T.) Assessment. CYR3CON has repeatedly demonstrated that a F.I.T. Assessment, which entails a review of an enterprise’s vulnerabilities, reveals threats that even some of the world’s top security teams were not aware. CYR3CON’s platform is able to deliver these results through a combination of AI and data mined from hacker communities.

The pandemic has pushed enterprises to increase their IT infrastructure to support the changing economic and workforce landscape. These changes have expanded the attack surface of corporate networks. However, security teams tasked with preventing disruption to this new infrastructure are doing so in an environment of resource constraints. The CYR3CON platform addresses these concerns head-on, enabling security teams to do more with less. Security team can prioritize limited resources by focusing their actions on the threat.

“We’re excited to be a named a TAG Cyber Distinguished Vendor this year,” said Paulo Shakarian, CEO and Co-Founder of CYR3CON. “Dr. Amoroso and the TAG team provide world class analysis and have worked hard to help showcase the CYR3CON platform.”

CYR3CON is part of an industry collective supporting democratization of cyber security research and advisory materials. Each distinguished vendor was selected by the TAG Cyber Analyst team, led by Dr. Edward Amoroso, CEO of TAG Cyber, and agrees to support and promote the free report, available today for free download at https://www.cyr3con.ai/.

The 2021 Security Annual is part of an annual series from TAG Cyber that is published each September since 2016. The report offers expert guidance, analysis, and education across the entire cyber security ecosystem.

“Paulo and his team at CYR3CON have continued to grow relentlessly since their founding in 2016,” said Amoroso, “and they continue to lead with their work in predictive intelligence. “We’re very happy to be working with them on this year’s Annual.”
