TEKRiSQ’s New Software Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  January 28, 2025 Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida

TEKCHEK™ makes cyber risk assessments fast, easy & affordable for smaller organizations

As cyber threats continue to evolve and business compliance obligations emerge, the importance of  risk assessments cannot be overstated. According to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), “By conducting cyber risk assessments, organizations experience a multitude of benefits; meeting operational & mission needs, improving their overall resiliency & cyber posture, and meeting insurance coverage requirements.
But cybersecurity resources can be pricey, and many cyber risk assessments are time-consuming exercises, filled with techie jargon that many businesses just don’t relate to. This keeps average sized businesses out of the loop, failing to protect themselves properly and putting millions of businesses at risk. The new platform addresses this issue by simplifying the assessment process, allowing organizations to identify vulnerabilities more efficiently in fast, easy and affordable ways. TEKCHEKTM provides a streamlined approach to cybersecurity risk assessments, aiming to facilitate organizations in evaluating their security stance.
Bill Haber is Co-Founder and CEO of TEKRISQ, INC. of Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, the company behind TEKCHECKTM. He believes their new product is timely. “With the increase in remote work and more sophisticated attack capabilities, cybercrime is expected to exceed $10T in 2025, with smaller businesses being a primary target. It’s time to ensure that SMBs have basic protections in place, and TEKCHEKTM makes it painless.”
TEKCHEKTM uses smart technology to help businesses discuss their use of technology. Interactive digital assistants, powered by artificial intelligence, provide a combination of training & guidance on various topics to diagnose cyber risk exposure. A TEKCHECKTM can typically be completed within a half hour. Once finished, TEKCHEKTM  shares findings and makes pragmatic recommendations when necessary.  Lastly, these findings can be shared securely with trusted advisors, investors, regulators, insurers, supply chain executives, data privacy attorneys & more.
Rob Meyer is a Partner at Catalyst Development Partners in Atlanta and a TEKRiSQ client.  Rob finds value in the company’s approach to educating clients.  “We buy a lot of insurance… but we never spent much time thinking about cyber issues. TEKCHEKTM helped us through this to get it right.”
TEKRiSQ uses years of cybersecurity risk assessment experience, advanced algorithms and data analytics to deliver insights that were previously difficult to obtain. By bringing together information from different sources, TEKCHEKTM ensures that organizations have a holistic view of their cybersecurity landscape. This integration not only enhances the accuracy of risk evaluations but also accelerates the decision-making process for cybersecurity teams.
One of the standout features of TEKCHEKTM is its user-friendly interface, which facilitates ease of use for professionals at all levels of expertise. This accessibility encourages broader participation in the risk assessment process, enabling even smaller teams to conduct thorough evaluations without the need for extensive training or specialized knowledge. As a result, organizations can achieve a higher level of security readiness, irrespective of their size or resources.
TEKCHEKTM also recommends actionable cybersecurity solutions, continuous monitoring and real-time updates, allowing organizations to stay ahead of emerging threats. By providing timely information on potential risks, the platform empowers business teams to make informed decisions and implement effective countermeasures proactively. This proactive stance is vital in today’s fast-paced digital environment, where threats can materialize rapidly.
Furthermore, TEKCHEKTM supports compliance with various industry standards and regulations. Organizations can leverage the platform to understand their growing obligations to meet compliance requirements, thereby minimizing the risk of penalties and reputational damage. This feature is particularly beneficial for sectors that are heavily regulated, such as finance and healthcare, where adherence to strict security protocols is essential. Some of these regulations are regional like Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR),  Federal like the military’s Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) or the SEC’s Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), state specific such as New York Department of Financial Services(NYDFS), and several others.
The impact of TEKCHEKTM extends beyond individual organizations. By contributing to a more secure digital landscape, the platform aids in the collective effort to combat cybercrime. As more organizations adopt robust risk assessment practices, the overall resilience of the business community strengthens, creating a safer environment for all stakeholders.
TEKCHEKTM aims to provide a new approach to how organizations handle cybersecurity risk assessments. With its innovative features, user-friendly design, and emphasis on plain-spoken guidance, it equips organizations to navigate the complexities of the cybersecurity landscape effectively. As threats continue to grow in sophistication, the role of tools like TEKCHEKTM becomes increasingly critical in safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining trust in digital transactions.
