Expanded partnership highlights CynergisTek’s
growth of its cybersecurity managed service client base
CynergisTek, (NYSE AMERICAN: CTEK), a leading cybersecurity firm
helping more than 1,000 healthcare facilities navigate emerging
security and privacy issues, today announced a nearly $1 million
managed services contract extension of its strategic partnership
with a leading university medical center which will fund crucial
expanded services for the healthcare institution at a time when
research organizations are in dire need of vital protection from
cyber adversaries.
The expanded program includes CynergisTek’s new security
validation service, which provides confirmation that processes,
technology, and security controls are responding effectively to
simulated attacks. By doing so, clients can develop and evaluate
defensive strategies and demonstrate a solid ROI from their
security investment when healthcare organizations everywhere are
facing new obstacles and dynamic threats.
A recent CynergisTek report stated that organizations that have
invested in security-focused resources show year-over-year
improvement in their NIST CSF scores. Leveraging CynergisTek’s
managed services program, allows organizations with the foundation
to implement successful strategic plans and can continue enhancing
their security and privacy programs while maintaining a predictable
year over year budget.
“Clients who aim to expand their managed services to include
security validation are not just evaluating their security posture,
they are taking the steps to actually validate its effectiveness in
production,” said Caleb Barlow, CEO and president of CynergisTek.
“Moving from traditional ‘assessments’ to ‘security validation’ is
not only innovative but it sets a new bar for other leading
institutions to follow.”
