Deploying Managed Security Services – Ensures Peace of Mind
Threats to your businesses infrastructure are on the rise from both external and internal sources. No longer are network firewalls and intrusion detection systems enough to keep your network secure. With advancements in technology, business networks are becoming very sophisticated. Hence securing your network is no longer deploying a set of devices and point solutions. You need to deploy cost effective security solutions that leverage best practices, simplify management requirements and increase your overall security.
You need to check whether your security solutions are enough or not. Does your security solution protect you from threats like data leakage, data theft (external and internal) and website defacement, denial of service, end user security, email security and legal risks? Are they proactive enough to sniff out and stave off potential threat vectors across your internet data center, web, email, network and end-users?
To secure their network and at the same time be compliant with new regulations, organizations need the help of a managed security service provider who can help manage and secure the network and bring peace of mind.
Managed security services protect your business beyond individual devices by managing from a centralized Security Operations Center (SOC). The SOC is manned by skilled security professionals 24/7/365, who are flexible, reliable and responsible, thus securing you on all fronts—from email servers and networks to websites and databases. Using such a professional service provider offers a number of advantages.
- Risk Mitigation – Risk to your network comes in many forms, and maintaining a 24/7 vigil in real-time is essential to understanding the activity. Security monitoring helps identify malicious activity, like external viruses, malware and spyware that can put your sensitive business information, your customers’ information and your financial information at risk. A managed security services provider can help you reduce these risks by identifying threats in advance. Attempts can be made to proactively diffuse threats and keep unwanted visitors at bay.
- Improved Network Visibility – With a 24/7 vigil in real-time you get better control over your existing and potential threats. All your incoming as well as outgoing traffic is controlled, to deliver a safe computing environment for the organization’s customers and users. Monitoring helps identify bottlenecks and issues with network performance at the beginning stage itself. This will help optimize network performance.
- Simplify Security Management – Managed service providers help reduce the amount of time your team spends addressing tactical security issues, freeing resources to focus on strategic business initiatives. A managed security service provider (MSSP) has an experienced staff that spends all of their time monitoring networks and keeping abreast of new vulnerabilities and new security and software products and patches.
- Enhanced Network Uptime – MSS ensures that your downtime is 0%, and resource utilization offers better productivity and better connectivity for remote users.
- Leverage Cost Saving – Achieve cost savings while raising your overall security level. The cost of managed security service is usually lower than hiring in-house full-time experts.
Thus deploying a managed security service provider ensures peace of mind allowing organizations to focus on activities in which they can most efficiently use their labor resources.
