What This Means for Your Organization
- Small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) usually lack the budget for an in-house security team. Managed security services allow you to experience an in-house security team for a fraction of the cost.
- 24/7/365 monitoring provides continuous protection, no matter what time of day.
- AI-driven security features like email security learn and adapt to your specific network behavior and needs.
- Scalability is key. Managed security services grow with your business, adjusting as your needs evolve.
According to MasterCard, almost half of SMBs have been victims of cybersecurity attacks. This number will only continue to grow with the sophistication of AI cyber attacks. SMBs are often targeted due to their lower IT cybersecurity budget. While SMBs are more vulnerable to these threats, Managed Security Service Providers are here to help.
What Are Managed Security Services and How Do They Help SMBs?
Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) are outsourced security services, meaning that your cybersecurity needs will be covered by a third party. These services include: Managed Detection & Response (MDR), Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR), Vulnerability Management (VM), Managed Email Security (MES), and 24/7/365 SOC Monitoring Support. These services can secure your organization while taking the load off of your company by cutting out the need for an in-house cybersecurity team. Below is a quick overview of Managed Security Services:
Managed Security Services Overview
| Managed Security Services | Solution |
|---|---|
| Managed Detection & Response (MDR) | A Security Operations Center (SOC) quickly and continuously identifies attacks across your networks, systems, and applications using advanced data and threat correlation detections. MDR analyzes and correlates alerts to provide actionable intelligence that details attack vectors, techniques, affected systems, and remediations. |
| Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) | Even the most subtle threats that can cripple your business, often disguised as innocent software or email attachments, are swiftly identified. This is done by continuously analyzing laptops, desktops, servers, and mobile devices for any sign of malicious activity. |
| Vulnerability Management (VM) | Most incidents stem from unpatched vulnerabilities. Advanced solutions continuously scan your environment to identify threats and pinpoint the necessary steps for remediation and protection. |
| Managed Email Security (MES) | MES is an enterprise-grade email security platform that works inline with your existing email provider to detect threats and ensure confidential and sensitive files are automatically marked and protected from unauthorized sharing or accidental disclosure. |
| 24/7/365 Monitoring Support | Security Operations Centers and robust managed security solutions ensure continuous protection and uninterrupted business operations by managing tools, integrations, and expertly identifying malicious activity 24/7/365. |
