Availability – A Necessity

Many organisations regardless of industry, location or size are under increasing commercial pressure to ensure their business objectives and strategies are met and exceeded through ‘always available’ on-premise and cloud infrastructures.

The implications of any disruption to service may be significant which could result in financial loss and/or reputational damage.

The additional impact of COVID-19 commercially and for staffing, has attracted a new wave of cyber criminals seeking weaknesses across all organisations.

This adds even more complexity as not only are you trying to ensure that your infrastructures are readily available and secure, you must also be prepared and able to respond effectively to cyber breaches.

It is these breaches, which for some are inevitable, that are crippling IT infrastructures and services every day – now is the right time to invest in cyber security operational services that are readily available, flexible and cost effective.

Stop attacks with the power of KHIPU’s SOC

Our ‘Always Available’ SOC service provides 24x7x365 advanced cyber defence across endpoints, networks and the cloud – proactively identifying and blocking malware, ransomware, file and file-less attacks by focusing on five key areas; Identify, Alert, Investigate, Mitigate and Continuous Improvement.

1. Identify attacks across network segments: Endpoint, networks and the cloud.
2. Alert all personnel on incidents based upon severity
3. Investigate and analyse the root cause and impact of the incident.
4. Mitigate and stop the attack working in partnership with the customer
5. Continuous Improvement – Adjust and improve operations to keep up with changing and emerging threats.

Managed Firewall Services

Many organisations have limited resources or budget to effectively manage their NextGen Firewall environment, this can often lead to:

• Out of date configurations and software releases.
• Security risks.

• Inability to leverage the full capabilities of their NextGen Firewall investment.
• Unable to effectively respond to and investigate breaches.

As a Palo Alto Networks certified MSSP, our SOC team provide flexible managed services, tailored to meet any requirements. Whether we take on full responsibility of the day to day operations and management of your NextGen Firewall infrastructure, or as an extension of your team, all tasks are ‘shared’ between both organisations – we have reduced costs, streamlined operations, improved efficiencies and cyber security postures.
