(IRM: Toronto) -- Starting now, small- to mid-sized enterprises across the North American manufacturing industry can evaluate their level of protection against cyberattacks with a free cyber risk assessment, performed at no cost by Canadian-based cybersecurity company IRM Consulting & Advisory. This Cyber Risk Assessment helps organizations identify any vulnerabilities that could lead to a data breach or exposure to a cyberattack.

“With cybercrimes on the rise over the past few years, companies are now at an even greater risk of falling victim to hackers,” says Victoria Arkhurst, managing partner at IRM Consulting & Advisory. “Having a robust cybersecurity plan simplifies risk management for your manufacturing business, and that process starts with a thorough evaluation of your current prevention [program].”
