Research consistently confirms that the cost of remediating data breaches can run into millions of dollars, an expense that can threaten the viability of a small- to medium-size business (SMB.) In fact, underwriters increasingly are requesting evidence that companies of all types and sizes have round-the-clock detection and response programs in place before issuing cyber insurance policies. That’s why as a premier managed services provider (MSP) we built 24/7 endpoint and identity monitoring into our core offering. Here’s how the services work: - Endpoint Monitoring – Our Security Operations Center (SOC) watches network endpoints (e.g., desktops, laptops, smartphones, tablets, etc.) for suspicious activity. A confirmed threat launches a chain of response actions that may include isolating the suspected device and escalating the issue to your team for rapid remediation.
- Identity Monitoring – Our SOC team examines sign-ins and other authentication processes across applications and cloud services to detect unusual behaviors and patterns that signal account misuse. Countermeasures may include isolating an identity, forcing sign-out or freezing an account for further investigation.
What are the benefits of this kind of managed IT service for SMBs? Here are three substantial ones: - Exhaustive vigilance increases the probability of early detection of cyber incursions, which in turn limits the likelihood of malware spreading across your network
- Rapid response reduces the operational risks of lengthy systems downtime and can mitigate the financial damage from data loss
- Proof of protection facilitates compliance with breach regulations and cyber insurance requirements
