GuidePoint Security, a cybersecurity solutions leader enabling organizations to make smarter decisions and minimize risk, announced that Fortress joined its Emerging Cyber Vendor Program. Through this partnership, Fortress will leverage GuidePoint’s federal expertise across sales and marketing, operations, engineering and procurement to expand their federal footprint.
“With many breaches originating from the cyber supply chain, it’s important to have a holistic view of risk across the IT and OT ecosystem of critical infrastructure and extended supply chain,” said Jim Quarantillo, Federal Partner, GuidePoint Security. “Government mandates require moving to a zero trust security model and Fortress provides cyber risk management solutions for mission critical supply chains that support this mission.”
