TYSONS, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nehemiah Security, an internationally recognized supplier of cybersecurity software and services to enterprise and government organizations, today announced that the Golden Bridge Awards® have recognized AtomicEye RQ, Nehemiah’s security risk management platform, as the winner of three awards. These global awards honor innovations in every facet of cybersecurity, and AtomicEye RQ was named the 2017 Gold winner for Vulnerability Assessment and Remediation Innovations; Silver winner for Endpoint Security Solution Innovations; and Bronze winner for Risk Management Solution Innovations.

Released in February 2017, AtomicEye RQ provides a powerful way for security operators to protect their network, and for executives to invest intelligently in cyber defense tools. Up to this point, it was difficult for business leaders to make well-informed, actionable decisions about security risk management because tactics used to determine security success, such as penetration tests or vulnerability scans, are costly, rely upon old data, and are limited in their effectiveness. RQ is able to circumvent these roadblocks by using near real-time situational awareness of the entire IT environment and mapping it against the state of the organization’s defenses to accurately and safely quantify security risk.

Backed by Nehemiah Security’s cyber innovation lab, Siege Technologies, and their elite cyberwarfare unit which has specialized in predicting, measuring and executing offensive cyber operations for the past decade, AtomicEye RQ is able to deploy real attacks against a replicated version of an organization’s system configuration. Within a matter of hours, security teams receive a comprehensive appraisal of their system’s exploitabilities, including how well the system defended against attacks, a ranking of the highest impact improvements, and a reporting of overall cyber risk.

“We believe that expressing cyber risk in a way that is easy to digest and provides tangible and actionable insights on how to best manage security risk is critical,” said Paul Farrell, CEO of Nehemiah Security. “Golden Bridge’s recognition of AtomicEye RQ is an affirmation of the success we have had in providing comprehensive visibility into security environments for enabling collaborative and effective decisions to make organizations more secure.”

Nehemiah Security is making it possible for organizations to assess security performance and measure changes, as compared to past benchmarks on a more continuous, verifiable basis. AtomicEye RQ makes this possible by providing executives with visibility and investment accountability, and security operators with a detailed, up-to-the minute understanding of the exploitabilities in their environment.
