Cyberwiz-Pro turned out to be the most robust product capable of supporting the management of our assessment and compliance throughout the life-cycle. We are very satisfied with the deployment of WizNucleus software in production,” says John Prehn, Cyber Security Program Manager at Diablo Canyon Nuclear Plant.
