Agiliance Named Finalist in SC Magazine Excellence Awards for Fifth-Consecutive Year


Agiliance®, Inc., the Big Data Risk Company™ and leading independent provider of integrated solutions for Operational and Security Risk Intelligence, today announced that its big data risk management solution, RiskVision™, has been named a finalist for Best Regulatory Compliance Solution in the SC Magazine 2015 Excellence Awards. This is the fifth-consecutive year that a panel of judges consisting of industry practitioners, analysts, and editors has recognized Agiliance for helping customers address their most pressing cyber security threats.

"We are honored to have been named a finalist in the SC Awards program for a fifth-consecutive year," said Torsten George, vice president of worldwide marketing and products at Agiliance. "Boards and businesses are struggling to comply with regulatory mandates that carry fines and capital holds, while trying to prevent data breaches that can lead to class-action suits and reduce a company's market value. RiskVision enables organizations to continuously monitor their compliance and security posture to assess related risks in near real time and take decisive actions to mitigate them without delay."

RiskVision software gathers datafeeds from otherwise silo-based security and IT tools such as SIEMs, configuration management databases, vulnerability scanners, threat data feeds and advisory services, database security management, etc. It then aggregates, normalizes, and correlates the information with business criticality. This enables a near real time snap shot of an organization's security posture.



In addition, RiskVision automates an organization's governance processes to provide insight into an agency's compliance posture. The final result is a risk-based assessment of the organization's infrastructure, providing prioritization of remediation actions based on business criticality. If needed, RiskVision also assists with automatic ticket creation.

"We are happy to acknowledge the outstanding achievements of Agiliance and its RiskVision product as Excellence Awards finalist," said Illena Armstrong, vice president editorial, SC Magazine. "Agiliance is a perfect example of the type of innovative thinking needed in the information security industry to fight off the new and changing cyber risks facing the private and public sector."


The SC Awards recognize innovations in the vendor and service provider communities. Each year, hundreds of IT security companies nominate their solutions for consideration in the SC Awards program. Entries are then evaluated by a jury, hand-picked by SC Magazine's editorial team, for their extensive knowledge and experience in the information security industry. Winners of the SC Magazine 2015 Excellence Awards will be announced at a gala dinner and award ceremony to be held in San Francisco on April 21, 2015.
