If an organization does not continually scan their network and repair or remediate security vulnerabilities, it's only a matter of time before they are hacked

Michael Peters, CEO, Lazarus Alliance

Lazarus Alliance currently provides At-101 SOC 2 reporting for CBX using Continuum GRC’s IT Audit Machine (ITAM), a proprietary software package that helps organizations automate their governance, risk, and compliance efforts. The SOC 2 reporting process involves establishing specific information security protocols and procedures and putting them in writing.

“We are pleased to expand the scope of our partnership with CBX Software,” said Michael Peters, CEO of Lazarus Alliance. “By releasing an SOC 2 report, CBX has already demonstrated a commitment to proactive cyber security practices. We look forward to building on the policy work we have already done with CBX during the SOC 2 reporting process and supporting the continuous evolution of those policies with ongoing penetration testing.”

Ongoing vulnerability scanning and penetration testing are crucial proactive measures in today’s cyber security environment, where new threats are emerging daily. The moment one potential attack vector is thwarted, cyber criminals discover a new one. Often, attackers will exploit not just one vulnerability in a single system, but a combination of vulnerabilities spread across an organization’s entire network.

In penetration testing, which is also known as “ethical hacking,” cyber security experts utilize multiple attack vectors and possible scenarios to “hack” an organization and uncover vulnerable systems and applications. Regular penetration testing allows organizations to stay a step ahead of cyber criminals by identifying and fixing vulnerabilities and weaknesses and anticipating and preventing future security issues. Penetration testing also helps organizations achieve and maintain industry and regulatory compliance standards such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2; evaluate the effectiveness of their current security policies and procedures; and maintain the trust of their user base.

“If an organization does not continually scan their network and repair or remediate security vulnerabilities, it’s only a matter of time before they are hacked,” explained Peters. “By engaging in regular penetration testing, CBX Software will be able to fix any vulnerabilities before hackers exploit them, adjust its security policies and procedures as the threat environment evolves, maintain compliance, and, most importantly, secure its own and its customers’ sensitive data.”
