If the United States government and major companies can't protect themselves from hackers, is there anything your business can really do to ramp up cyber-security?

Lee Weiner, Senior Vice President of Rapid7, joined NECN to discuss the options. Rapid7 brings tools into companies to determine where a breach in security is likely to happen. They also help combat and make a company's network stronger after an attack.

According to Weiner, many companies are in a poor state of security and they work to bring people to an effective state of security.

In addition, Weiner talked about steps companies can make to protect themselves against attacks.
