According to Cisco’s 2017 Security Capabilities Benchmark Study, most organizations rely on third-party vendors for at least 20 percent of their security, and CodiSec proves that CodiLime is the leader in security, an area of focus in a growing number of industries.

Robert Tomkowski adds,
“Attackers continuously produce even smarter malware to exploit systems and infrastructure in organizations in both the public and private sectors, and that means that data security is everyone’s business. The more prepared security engineers become, the safer our data will be.”
