Elevate Security launched a new platform that addresses one of cybersecurity's biggest unsolved problems - human error - with an intelligent, customized and automated response to employee risk across an organization.

Pioneering a new category in cybersecurity, human attack surface management, the Elevate Security Platform ingests the entirety of an organization's data to gain benchmarked visibility into human error, enabling CISOs to proactively tailor security controls and create 'safety nets' for the riskiest employees.

Human attack surface management takes a holistic approach to human risk, aggregating data across an organization's technology to build a Human Risk Score for each employee and measure the security strength and inherent risk across an organization.

"With human attack surface management, we've created an entirely new approach to cybersecurity - one that allows enterprises to turn existing security data into deep insights on employee risk including access levels, security decisions and frequency of attack," said Masha Sedova, co-founder and chief product officer of Elevate Security.

"The Elevate Security Platform gives CISOs unprecedented visibility and control into how different employees, departments, regions and groups across the organization rank for cybersecurity vulnerabilities, enabling companies to strengthen their overall cyber defense strategy."

"Using the Elevate Security Platform, CISOs get unique insight into their riskiest employees and can set tailored security controls focused on those employees, as opposed to resorting to broad and excessive restrictions that introduce more friction into the business" said Robert Fly, Elevate Security's co-founder and CEO. "The Elevate Security platform uses real-world attack and access data to give companies a back-to-basics understanding and visibility into human error and allows CISOs to translate the security team's efforts into the language of business risk."
