The Gately Report: Cybereason Helps MSSPs Provide Unified Security, Details Massive Espionage Ring

Cybereason is focusing on helping MSSP partners and others bridge siloed security technologies to create unified protection for their customers.

That’s according to Israel Barak, Cybereason’s CISO. Earlier this year, Cybereason launched its new Pay As You Grow (PAYG) program for MSSP partners, providing financial flexibility to increase margins and profitability.

This month, Cybereason announced new incident response (IR) and professional services subscription bundles. They include services to help organizations measure and optimize their security program. They’re packaged with unlimited IR services that identify, contain and remediate malicious cyber incidents.

“Essentially IR shops and IR service providers can dramatically reduce their cost for best-in-class IR delivery,” Barak said. “They can scale the IR operation and they can streamline the conversion of IR engagements into an ongoing subscription-based managed detection and response (MDR) business.”

One of the core areas of focus of the IR solution is to augment the Cybereason extended detection and response (XDR) platform and provide defenders with a unified incident detection and response platform, he said.

Incident responders and IR providers can gain a combination of visibility and threat analytics, Barak said. That’s based on both real-time and forensic data from a single tool. It automates the digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) processes.

“And by that, they can simplify and increase the efficiency, productivity and scale of their process,” he said.

In addition, Cybereason has been making big headlines for its threat research. For instance, it recently uncovered a massive China-based industrial espionage ring dubbed Operation CuckooBees.
