Interos poised to meet Obama’s renewed emphasis on Cybersecurity
With new website, new software and streamlined focus, Interos is ready to fulfill President Obama’s renewed emphasis on Cybersecurity and crucial Supply Chain Risk Management.
McLean, VA– March 9, 2010 — Interos Solutions, Inc. announces the company’s re-branding to support its sole focus on Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM). Interos President Jennifer Bisceglie believes that it is a critical time for intelligence, civilian and military Federal agencies to focus on SCRM; particularly as it relates to the expanded definition under Cybersecurity as seen with President Obama’s recent emphasis on the Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative (CNCI) From financial (money flow) and physical (inventory) to human (people) and information (systems integration) supply chains, Interos will continue to work with its clients to put renewed efforts and resources into mitigating and managing the risks in their supply chains.
“Threats to the supply chain are very real and on the rise,” says Bisceglie. “By focusing on understanding, mitigating and managing these risks, we are providing our clients their best defense against the threats they face on a daily basis –from terrorism or natural disasters, to health crises or human error. The fact is that we cannot end risk. So we must manage the risk before it manages us.”
New focus aligns with new Obama policy review
Interos’ new focus on SCRM is in direct alignment with the Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative (CNCI), which was originally issued by the Bush Administration in early 2008. In fact, Initiative #11 specifically states the need to “Develop a multi-pronged approach for global supply chain risk management.”
Interos has helped agencies such as the Department of State, the Department of Homeland Security, and the U.S. Navy with their Supply Chain Risk Management. By mitigating their risk, agencies also experience increased performance and a reduction in program interruptions.
New website, exclusive rights to RiskNav software
Interos recently launched their new streamlined, easy-to-navigate website that focuses on their commitment to SCRM and the differences Interos offers, such as the 15+ years of experience each team member has in designing, developing and optimizing supply chains.
Interos recently acquired the exclusive field of use rights to RiskNav as it relates to use in the supply chain risk industry. This software is offered by Sycamore and used in various capacities to support other Government programs to monitor overall program management. The tool will be used by Interos for collecting and sharing risk information in a secure environment, and can also be customized to meet unique program requirements.
