Accordingly and due to current working capital deficit of approximately $3.3 million, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of issuance of the financial statements. The Company’s mission is to drive shareholder value by developing and bringing to market automated, cost effective, and innovative cybersecurity technologies. The Company’s strategy is to build its business by designing, developing, and marketing IT security-based products and solutions that fill technology gaps in cybersecurity.

The products and solutions are designed to simplify the security needs in customer and partner environments, with a focus on Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). The Company enables its partners by providing recurring revenue-based business models that use its automated plug and play solutions. Products may be sold as standalone solutions or integrated into existing environments to further automate the management of security and related IT functions. The Company’s ability to succeed depends on how successful it is in differentiating itself in the market at a time when competition in these markets is on the rise. The Company works with its partner, Webroot, to increase its base of channel partners and to increase sales of Webroot’s cloud-based endpoint security solution, with the objective of growing its recurring revenue model. The Company’s cybersecurity services business is conducted within its professional services organization (PSO).

The Company believes the capital resources available under its factoring line of credit, cash from additional related party and third-party loans and cash generated by improving the results of its operations provide sources to fund its ongoing operations and to support the internal growth of the Company. Although the Company has no assurances, the Company believes that related parties, who have previously provided working capital, and third parties will continue to provide working capital loans on similar terms, as in the past, as may be necessary to fund its on-going operations for at least the next 12 months, however substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated. If the Company experiences significant growth in its sales, the Company believes that this may require it to increase its financing line, finance additional accounts receivable, or obtain additional working capital from other sources to support its sales growth. The Company plans to evaluate alternatives which may include renegotiating the terms of the notes, seeking conversion of the notes to shares of common stock and seeking funds to repay the notes. The Company continues to evaluate repayment of our notes payable based on its cash flow.
