Benefits

Continuous Monitoring:
  • Structured method in identifying misconfiguration across monitored devices.
  • Continuously monitor and mitigate problems found which helps organization to maintain security effectiveness.
Proactive Detection:
  • Insecure systems are more likely to suffer availability issues when a vulnerability is exploited by hackers.
  • SOC Services enable organizations to detect possible intuitions proactively and can remediate it.
Compliance Reporting:
  • ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA
  • Real-time and periodic reports to comply with legal requirements and national laws
  • Historic data for compliance process improvement
Security Incident Management:
  • A security breach could affect not only the target organization, but also their clients, partners and third parties working with them.
  • Security Incident alerting and management enables the organization to detect and respond to attack vectors that could compromise the company’s reputation
Post-Incident Analysis:
  • Centralized log management solution enabled investigators to do deep incident analysis and forensics. This also help to identify lateral movements and malicious behavior.
