Telos Corporation, a leader in cyber risk management and compliance solutions, announced the launch of Xacta.ai the AI capability at the core of the Xacta cyber governance, risk and compliance (GRC) platform. Xacta.ai helps organizations dramatically cut compliance timelines while delivering expert-level, real-time insights that transform how risk and compliance are managed.
“With Xacta.ai, we’re not just adding AI to cyber GRC – we’re redefining what’s possible,” said John B. Wood, CEO and chairman, Telos. “By uniting decades of cyber risk management and security compliance expertise with the latest AI innovations, we’re equipping organizations with the insight they need to move past reactive check-the-box compliance and take control of their risk management with greater clarity and confidence.”
