In today's world, organisations are facing complex attacks that can lead to frauds, losses and reputation damages. Though these companies have adequate number of security professionals capable of transformational projects to enhance security posture, their time as much as 65% is spent in routine activities like audits, IS0 27001 processes, compliance in tracking open items, creating user awareness etc. Though these routine activities are essential for security, they take up far too many resources in an organization. Risk Defense is a quick and cost-effective solution to automate the critical information security functions of risk and compliance management, technical audits and end user awareness.

On this occasion, Mr. Rajat Mohanty, CEO of Paladion Networks said," Risk Defense is an outcome of some of our large customers' requests for a unified, automated platform for risk & compliance, technical audit and user awareness. We have integrated three of our industry acclaimed products and enhanced their functionalities to create Risk Defense. This product follows our policy of putting the customer first while designing new solutions and products."
