Why this value proposition now?

• Tiered suppliers, vendors, and external stakeholders are often not fully trained on best business practices in technology utilization. We will silo them to ensure secure communications and provide your organization with governance and controls.
• Tiered suppliers, vendors, and external contractors cannot access enterprise systems; thus, efficiency is lost.
• If they have access to your enterprise, they pose a cybersecurity threat like Target's in 2013*.

We have resolved the issues with our Virtual Chief Information Officer (VCIO) toolbox services.

In our toolbox, we have PHAZE. PHAZE provides a collaborative environment siloed from your enterprise where you collaborate and exchange with all teams. Thus, eliminating the cybersecurity threat to your enterprise. With staff and non-staff external collaborators working at home, we provide our VCIO to train your stakeholders, monitor their systems, and ensure data communications are firewalled and secure.

PHAZE® empowers your workforce and integrates easily with your legacy systems and staff. With PHAZE's 5 AZE of Access, Automation, Accountability, Audit Trail, and Analytics, you can achieve up to 250% more productivity in up to 50% less time at a fraction of the cost of conventional and legacy information systems and ERPs created in the 1980s and 1990s. We digitize your organization from the field to the C-suite.

• Your company hires us to be the VCIO for your external stakeholders.
• We proactively train them in cyber security and best practices needed to utilize technology to run their business.

* The Target data breach of 2013 was one of the most significant security breaches in history. Target was required to pay an $18.5 million settlement after hackers stole 40 million credit and debit records.

What caused the Target security breach?

The person worked for Fazio Mechanical, a Pennsylvania-based HVAC company, a third-party vendor hired by Target. The Fazio employee fell for a phishing trick and opened an attachment in a fraudulent email the hackers had sent him.
