PRZOOM - /newswire/ - Bangalore, Karnataka, India, 2010/08/17 - Launches its first solution targeted towards addressing people risk.

Aujas, a global provider of Information Risk Management services has announced the launch of its solution “Phishing Diagnostic Service (PDS)”.

Social Engineering and Phishing attacks have been a growing concern. Scammers have started exploiting human vulnerabilities by targeting users inside organizations in a highly creative manner to gain access to a variety of sensitive information like custodial data (medical, credit or other personally identifiable data or corporate secrets (trades secrets, strategic plans or sales forecasts) residing inside corporate networks.

Aimed at addressing the ‘People Risk’ within the organization, Phishing Diagnostic solution from Aujas will enable organizations to understand the behavioral response of employees over the internet and check their preparedness against social engineering and phishing attacks. This solution will enable organizations to validate people controls deployed across the enterprise and can be used to sporadically check effectiveness of people controls to ensure sustenance of Compliance & Risk Management frameworks.

In a recent deployment at a leading bank in the US, the customer found the PDS solution to be extremely useful to understand employee preparedness.

“We wanted to understand how our employees would react to a Phishing attack and the solution provided by Aujas was exactly what we were looking for. We realized after Aujas conducted the Phishing Diagnostic, we had a user awareness risk and was able to focus our training on specific groups of individuals. The professionalism that the Aujas team demonstrated and the value that they provided certainly demonstrated for us the Return on Investment we were looking for” said, VP - Security of a leading US Bank.

Aujas CEO and Co-founder, Mr. Srinivas Rao said: “It is possible to evaluate technology and process risks with deployed security management systems and tools but it is difficult to evaluate people risk to which an organization could be exposed. Phishing Diagnostic Solution (PDS) addresses this gap. It proactively assesses the risk to which business groups might be exposed, helps directing organization investments towards prioritized remediation.”

Aujas expands its service offering launching this pioneering service to offer a solution addressing ‘People Risk’.
