Even the most sophisticated information security programs can prove vulnerable to online and digital threats if employees aren’t engaged. In a move to prevent this disconnect and the potentially devastating consequences it can have for enterprise businesses, PhishLine has partnered with Enex Carbon to provide a comprehensive, holistic approach toward cybersecurity culture and awareness.

The partnership positions a cutting-edge information security data provider, PhishLine, and a pioneering leader in security culture and awareness, Enex Carbon, as leaders in an industry that’s increasingly called upon by enterprise businesses to deliver turnkey solutions that fight cybercrime.

Perhaps nowhere is the demand for this type of approach more prevalent than in the Asia-Pacific market where ransomware attacks like Wannacry hit the region hard, infecting tens of thousands of organizations at its peak. With well-established presences in the region, both companies are positioned to help enterprise businesses defend themselves from these and other digital threats.

US-based PhishLine has extensive experience in Hong Kong helping several large financial institutions in the region implement information security programs. Enex Carbon, based in Australia, is a well-established Asia-Pacific provider and recently worked with PhishLine to help an Australian bank improve its security stance and culture.

Both companies had positive things to say about the partnership. “Enex Carbon is an experienced player that understands what motivates employees to get behind a security culture,” said Mark T. Chapman, PhishLine President & CEO. “They know that humans are the critical link in any security solution and complement our data-driven approach nicely.”

Enex Carbon CEO, Mark Jones had this to say: “To support any change activity, you need data. The partnership with PhishLine enables us to establish metrics that we can use to improve security culture across our current and future clients around the world.”
