10/09/18

Today it is essential that organizations, regardless of their size, market sector and/or technological maturity, begin to focus on cybersecurity and take concrete actions.

There are several alternatives in the way to comply with cybersecurity requirements, since not all organizations have the obligation, need or ability to consider the responsibilities and operations related to cybersecurity, within the company or institution.

On the other hand, there are sectors of activity that must have cybersecurity functions internal to the organization, either by business needs or by regulatory and legal requirements. However, most organizations are not in this situation and can rely fully or partially on companies like Security Advisor, which we are dedicated exclusively to respond to the challenges posed by cybersecurity.

Depending on the factors mentioned above, the organization can define which aspects, related to strategic and/or operational issues, it decides to leave in the hands of expert companies.

In this way, your organization will have the constant support of a specialized professional team that will not only provide immediate solutions to maintain the security of your information, but will also save you time and costs:

Having a specialized team makes the difference

Currently, human resources specialized in cybersecurity and related technologies are increasingly scarce in the market. According to reports from consulting firms and Head Hunting, by the year 2020, only 1 in 3 cybersecurity jobs will be filled due to lack of qualified resources. Having a Managed Security Service allows the organization to better leverage its technical resources and manage the relationship with the cybersecurity service provider through Service Level Agreements (SLAs), avoiding the organization having to train its staff in multiple specific cybersecurity technologies (with the risk of them being recruited by other organizations).

Implement solutions quickly and effectively.

The Managed Service allows the client to have access to trained and experienced resources, which translates into a reduction of time in the implementation of solutions, as well as reducing or eliminating the learning curve in new technologies.

Prevention also saves money

The Managed Services contracting modality allows transforming CAPEX into OPEX, investment into expenditure. At the same time, it allows an adequate planning of expenses, in a predictable way and without surprises. In short, it allows to redirect resources of the organization (professionals, time, money) to the "core" needs of the business.

The scope of the Managed Security Services must be defined according to the client's requirements, we can consider alternatives where we take the complete management, becoming your cybersecurity area, where we work in the definition of policies, regulations, managing your infrastructure and security solution providers.In addition, this type of service can also be oriented to a particular platform: endpoint, network, perimeter, cloud, encryption, information leakage, vulnerability analysis, etc. Managing security is undoubtedly more than prevention, it is to accept reality and move forward with change.
