SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), a federal agency tasked with protecting the retirement security of more than 33 million Americans in single-employer and multiemployer pension plans, has renewed its PBGC Office of Benefits Administration (OBA) Information Systems Security Risk Management Services contract with leading managed cybersecurity and compliance provider CISO Global’s (NASDAQCM: CISO) wholly owned subsidiary TalaTek.
CISO Global’s subsidiary TalaTek will continue to support the management and oversight of OBA’s compliance and security requirements and its continuous monitoring program that is used to safeguard and protect PBGC’s critical systems and data.
“As a long-time PBGC partner, we look forward to continuing to help the agency protect its mission-critical operations and strengthen its data security,” said Baan Alsinawi, managing director of Strategy & Risk, CISO Global, and founder of TalaTek. “In today’s cyber risk environment, it is imperative that federal agencies continuously assess their enterprise environments based on a holistic approach to risk management. We will continue to deliver best-in-class solutions enabled by our team of experts.”
