MELVILLE, N.Y. –
June 14, 2017– One of the greatest challenges facing today’s
government Cyber Security organizations is the retention and training of
their operational cyber workforce. With limited security budgets, cyber
security managers must ensure that the right people are in the right job
with the right training. CYBRScore™, the new cyber skills assessment
tool from Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (Nasdaq: CMTL), is now making
that process more effective.
“CYBRScore™ Skills Assessments provide a quantitative measurement of
performance, using practical, hands-on scenarios to evaluate job-role
competencies, knowledge, skills and abilities,” said Fred Kornberg,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech Telecommunications
Corp. “Our Skills Assessments allow enterprises to focus training
investments for the highest impact.”
“The CYBRScore™ assessment details an overall score with individual
skill breakdown and provides targeted recommendations for training to
improve the skill areas that need augmentation,” Mr. Kornberg added.
Erik Wallace, Director of Product Development for Comtech’s Cyber
Services product line, will be a featured speaker at AFCEA’s Defensive
Cyber Operations Symposium in Baltimore, Md. through June 15 presenting
a detailed description of CYBRScore™ and the impact it can have in
government cyber security programs. Mr. Wallace is a member of Cellular
Telecommunications Internet Association (CTIA)’s Cybersecurity Working
Group, the FCC’s Communications Security, Reliability and
Interoperability Council (CSRIC) V Working Group 7 – Cyber Security and
the Chesapeake Regional Tech Council (CRTC) Cyber Security Working
Group. He holds eleven U.S. patents in the areas of messaging and
telecommunications.
