Packaged cyber-threat service

October 2017 News & Events, Information Security

To respond to the increasingly complex cybersecurity challenges, organisations are required to constantly adapt and change the way they think about and approach cybersecurity. Traditional IT security and technology-centric approaches are no longer adequate, but are rather being augmented by integrated, multi-dimensional and holistic solutions encompassing processes, policies, procedures, operations, people, and technology, which require the active participation of the whole organisation.

This interdependence between operational and security culture (people), processes and technology underpins the holistic approach to cybersecurity and exemplifies the cliché “the whole is greater than the sum of the parts”.

This holistic and proactive cybersecurity strategy addresses the key elements of the human factor, awareness and training, access to global threat intelligence and their translation into effective cyber defence mechanisms to empower incident response operators, analysts etc.

In line with this evolution, Gold ‘N Links Cyber has introduced the next layer of cybersecurity services: Holistic Enterprise Next Generation Cyber Threat Packaged Services.

Jim Green, CTO of GNL Cyber points out, “Our approach is to focus on a per-user model as opposed to the infrastructure, capacity, EPS status quo”.

Dr Graham Wright, CEO of GNL Cyber, adds, “Our services and solutions provide the glue and address the integration of traditional and evolving cyber technologies and strategies by adding in a proactive oversight service. This effectively aims to maximise an organisation’s current cybersecurity investments, and extract better value through actionable, visual, local and global threat intelligence and in-depth interactions and engagements to support and protect all organisations, from SMB to enterprise across a variety of market segments.”

These integrated services include a real-time 24/7 user-interactive incident reporting and response solution (thereby turning company employees, who are typically the targets of cyber criminals, into active cyber defenders), a training and awareness solution (from basement to boardroom), identifying the risks and vulnerabilities of an organisation (and, more importantly, how these impact the business objectives), exposing known and unknown weaknesses. These are consolidated via a Global SIEM/SOC which leverages the best operators, analysts AND specialist on the cyber frontline.

GNL Cyber’s services and packaged solutions are accredited by local and international cyber insurance companies and offer peace of mind to all organisations looking for a 360-degree approach.

“Requirements, intent and tools are nothing more than that. It is the application and the creative approach to implementing and using these that adds value and allows customers to maximise their current cyber-security investments and evolve from a reactive posture to a proactive strategy that makes the difference”, says Wayne Donnelly, head of marketing and sales at GNL Cyber.
