Here’s What You Need to Build a Multi-level Security Services Offering

EPP and an appropriate EDR: Endpoint protection is a must. At the same time, EDR is a hot topic right now, and with good reason–it’s closely linked with endpoint protection, and endpoints are still the main target for cybercriminals. While EDR is a powerful tool that helps highly skilled security professionals hunt for advanced threats in networks they protect or provide a managed service for, it’s not great for businesses that don’t have this level of expertise in-house. These businesses need an EDR tool that acts as an extension of the EPP, with complementary workflow and a unified web-based console and simple-yet-effective tools. Key EDR capabilities in this class include deep visibility, simplified root cause analysis and comprehensive automated response actions. Whatever your different customers’ level of security maturity, they need EDR–just make sure it’s the right kind for them.

Sandbox: Antivirus engines can only stop known threats, and sophisticated threat actors use state-of-the-art techniques to dodge them. Immediate threat detection capabilities are crucial for rapid, effective response. Sandbox helps to make intelligent decisions based on a file’s behavior while simultaneously analyzing process memory, network activity, Sandbox is a super-efficient way for your customers to get a handle on advanced, targeted threats–and its technologies have the added benefit of increasing the cost for an attacker of carrying out an attack, which is a big deterrent. Giving your customers the choice of on-premises or cloud sandbox is another way to ensure they get exactly what works best for them.

Up-to-the-minute threat data feeds: Without context and actionable intelligence, data is of limited value. Near real-time, immediately actionable cyberthreat data from threat data feeds significantly improves your customers’ forensic capability to deal with known, unknown and developing threats.

Tailored MDR: Businesses have never been more reliant on IT, but not every organization has the resources or in-house expertise to monitor and hunt for threats, let alone respond to them. A fully managed and personalized MDR solution gives your customers peace of mind, taking responsibility for handling the growing volume of threats from detection through to remediation. It substantially reduces the overall impact of any incident and also reduces security costs.
