VIOPOINT Employs Modulo Risk Manager to Expedite Security and Compliance
Projects for its Clients

NEW YORK, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VIOPOINT, a consultancy company
from Auburn Hills, Michigan, selected Modulo Risk Manager to automate and
centralize risk management and compliance projects with their clients.
Focused on financial, health and other areas of the private sector to
identify, assess and manage risks, including IT compliance, web application
security and disaster recovery, VIOPOINT examined three other competing
products. After that, Rob Cote, VP of Sales and Marketing for VIOPOINT,
decided to establish a partnership with Modulo. "When we complete a project,
the customer has the ability to manage future risk assessments themselves
through the use of the tools we offer," says Cote.
The choice was made considering Modulo's Risk Manager multi-application
coverage. "It has specific focus on managing the risks associated with
information assets. Risk Manager has the capability to assess critical
compliance mandates such as HIPAA, PCI and SOX, as well as best practice
standards and frameworks from ISO and NIST."
Modulo's solution helps IT and security professionals automate and
streamline the data needed to conduct risk assessments and compliance
projects. "Risk Manager cuts the time frame required for these projects from
six or eight weeks to two or three," says Cote. "The vast majority of clients
report a 30% savings on the resources needed for upfront data collection and
80-90% time savings on reporting processes," he points out.
VIOPOINT plans to continue working with Modulo to develop additional
features and capabilities that customers have suggested. He says that so far
Modulo has exceeded his expectations and those of the clients. "They are
customer-focused, flexible, and committed to the highest quality of service."
