$5M Data Breach Guarantee with Paragon Security Program

AsTech, a leading cyber risk management firm dedicated to helping organizations discover and remediate vulnerabilities to secure critical information assets, is expanding its hallmark Paragon Security Program (PSP) warranty against damages from data breaches to $5 million.

This guarantee protects businesses against breach-related costs if an organization suffers unauthorized access to non-public information through a vulnerability that AsTech fails to discover for its Paragon Security Program customers.

AsTech joins industry leaders, such as SentinelOne, WhiteHat Security, Cymmetria and others, in providing a financial guarantee to customers in the event of successful cyber-attacks on their applications and networks that their solutions do not catch first.

“This is the way of the future,” said Greg Reber, CEO, AsTech. Clients should be demanding this from their security vendors.” 

“We are the first company to offer a managed application security service guarantee, but assuredly won’t be the last.” 

According to Cybersecurity Ventures, the worldwide cost of cybercrime will grow from $3 trillion in 2015 to $6 trillion by 2021.

This includes damage and destruction of data, stolen money, lost property, intellectual property theft and other areas.

PSP subscribers also enjoy permanent security improvements in their application development processes regardless of the size of the company. 

“At AsTech, we stand behind our work with much more than just a money-back guarantee,” said Andrew McDonnell, president of AsTech.

“We will pay up to $5 million in breach-related costs for remediation, customer notification, legal fees, or anything else.”

“We have spent nearly two decades continuously refining our approach to developer team training and management, source code assessments and remediation techniques so that the results are precise, effective and comprehensive.”

Internet applications have now become the attack vector of choice for assailants.
