Nehemiah Security's AtomicEye RQ Quantifies the Effects of Cyber Exploits


Nehemiah Security, an internationally recognized supplier of cybersecurity software and services to enterprise and government organizations, today announced the release of AtomicEye RQ (Risk Quantifier). Engineered to swiftly replicate a network environment and mathematically predict the effects of real cyber exploits, AtomicEye RQ provides executives with visibility and investment accountability, and security operators with a detailed, up-to-the minute understanding of the vulnerabilities in their environment. This knowledge makes it easier to secure the network and invest intelligently in cyber defense tools.

Enterprises at all levels strive to address the question - "How secure is my environment?" - but have trouble producing an accurate answer. Many tactics used by organizations to determine some measure of security success, such as penetration tests and vulnerability scans, are limited in their effectiveness because they are expensive, rely upon old data, are limited in scale and scope, and are confined by rules of engagement. AtomicEye RQ eliminates these road blocks by using accurate, timely data directly from an enterprise's network environment to develop a map of weaknesses.

In order to develop this map, RQ clones a network configuration and deploys an unlimited combination of attacks on the virtual network. These experiments, compiled from a library of thousands of exploits and malware, are automatic, continuous, configurable, and reveal with certainty where vulnerabilities exist in the environmnt. Once deployed, RQ's algorithms work in the background to constantly calculate and recommend the highest impact upgrades and repairs to the network. Security operators can turn their attention from reacting to thousands of alerts to proactively protecting their organization's valuable assets. Over time, executives gain a quantifiable understanding of their organization's security, and how their cyber defenses are performing.



"Clients and CISOs have shared with us that securing their enterprise network with confidence and direction is a major obstacle that they are driven to find a solution for," said Paul Farrell, CEO of Nehemiah Security. "Organizations are spending too much money on solutions and services to guess at the state of their security posture. AtomicEye RQ delivers analytical models capable of identifying critical network vulnerabilities, making it possible to measure and optimize an organization's security configuration over time, even as changes are constantly occurring."

Nehemiah Security announced the acquisition of Siege Technologies in November 2016, and Triumfant in August 2016. It is Nehemiah Security's goal to help clients solve the toughest cyber challenges. The announcement of AtomicEye RQ is the next step in Nehemiah Security's plan to change the game for security operators through a more complete, intelligent cybersolution.
