Penta: Enterprise grade cyber security now affordable for SMEs
Security firms use a combination of information and event management systems to introduce Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems as part of any viable Security Operation Center (SOC). SIEM has been in use for the past decade, but it has grown considerably from its initial log monitoring core function. It now uses advanced software to monitor and analyze telemetry and logs from IT infrastructure points in real-time to detect irregularities and behavioral patterns that could signal threats. It relies on data collection from multiple sources and formats, and can be managed by internal IT security teams, or independently as an outsourced service.
In addition, and based on thorough audits and assessments, IT risk solution portfolios must now cover a comprehensive spectrum of services including governance, regulatory, and compliance requirements, and a host of complimentary services such as policy development, insurance support, training and awareness, monitoring and reporting. The key is to find the sweet spot of cost vs. benefit that matches organizational requirements to address real threat potentials. Products like Penta Sentinel aim to find this sweet spot.
Farhad added: "Winning the war against cybercrime is no longer limited to big organizations, banks, and government authorities. Today's SMEs are global concerns with complex supply chains, interconnected networks, and international clients. They need the same bank-standard security for their operations and to safeguard their reputation. The war will be won by those companies that can get the right support, at the right price, in a scalable manner, with an IT security firm that works as a partner in their business."
