TL;DR

AWARE7 GmbH attended Slush 2019 in Helsinki - Europe's leading startup and tech conference with 20,000 participants - to present its digital risk management platform RISKREX. The platform automates vulnerability identification and visualization for both technical and human attack vectors, replacing previously manual risk analyses. At the time of the event, an open beta of RISKREX was being prepared for later in 2019. The article also reflects on the company's growth since spinning off from the Institute for Internet Security, covering live hacking, awareness formats, and penetration testing.

This week a part of the AWARE7 team flies to Helsinki for SLUSH 2019 - Europe’s leading tech conference is on the agenda. One year ago AWARE7 GmbH did not exist. We are happy to be a part of the scene now.

At SLUSH 2019 the Startup Tech scene of Europe meets this week.

This week everyone is coming together in Helsinki: Investors, start-ups and numerous visitors. In 2017 the event had a total of 20,000 participants*. And we are also represented as startups. SLUSH has been a regular event since 2008. We are there to present our digital risk management platform RISKREX. AWARE7 GmbH is a young company - but with a highly specialized portfolio. For the Live Hacking & Awareness format we are constantly increasing our reach. Since the spin-off from the Institute for Internet Security, we have noticed that organisations of all kinds are actively looking for new awareness formats - and since the spin-off, we have deliberately refrained from wearing a suit. The pentesting sector is also subject to continuous growth. A reason for numerous new hires. But these two areas are not the focus of SLUSH 2019.

We present our digital risk management platform in Helsinki!

How can human and technical security gaps be identified, measured and effectively closed? We will answer these questions at SLUSH 2019. RISKREX is a platform that enables companies to make vulnerabilities visible. We focus on the visualization of risks and potential attack vectors, such as lateral movement. Digital risk analyses, which were previously elaborately carried out by hand, are now created fully automatically. In addition, those responsible receive tools and information to eliminate or reduce the risk. We are looking forward to SLUSH 2019 and are naturally looking towards 2020. But you don’t have to wait that long for an open beta of RISKREX. Still in this year it will be possible for each interested one to participate in our open beta. Stay excited!
