Optimal Cyber Resilience

A slip by any one person can be the path to a security breach, but no single person can prevent malicious activity by themselves. It takes teamwork to ensure that corporate networks and information resources are properly and constantly secured. There isn’t a silver bullet for cyber security, there never will be, but you can certainly build a well-integrated ecosystem of tools to optimise cyber resilience, reduce alert fatigue and minimise operational overhead.

The Desire

Why wouldn’t you want the ‘best of breed’ technology controls, the Gartner and Forrester leaders, the optimal solutions both technically and commercially. Many organisations have built a collection of fantastic point products with great capabilities to deal with cyber threats at various layers – endpoint, email, web, gateway, identity, data, network, etc, etc.

The Challenge

It’s rare to find a cyber professional twiddling their thumbs! In fact the recent UK Gov Cyber Breach Survey specifically calls out ‘stretched resource’ as an notable issue. Spare security man hours are a luxury. With a plethora of point technology controls that are facing increasingly sophisticated and targeted attacks spanning multiple vectors, it requires a notable amount of operational resource to keep tools optimised and respond to alerts.

The Solution

Best of breed point solutions are strong stand alone but are even better when working together to form a cohesive security ecosystem. Mature partnerships with API integrations between the market leading technology helps increase security and reduce operational overhead. A team effort rather than individuals.

The Outcome

Continually improved cyber incident Prevention, Detection and Response.

The future state security architecture in Saepio’s view involves best of breed tools that integrate seamlessly, bi-directionally share threat intelligence, send all relevant data and alerts to a centralised security operations platform which automatically triggers appropriate incident response actions.  This feedback loop into the individual tools further optimises their efficacy resulting in continual security improvement.
