Effective Protection. Intelligent Detection. Instant Response
With cyber crime rapidly becoming the scourge of the 21st century, COMSEC has taken a bold first step forward towards tackling this problem by launching our very own Managed Security Services (MSS).
Managing security events in today’s corporate environment poses a series of challenges for beleaguered IT personnel and their organizations. A daily onslaught of security data from disparate systems, platforms and applications delivers the first challenge.
To redress the current fragmented approach to security event management and safeguard government business operations, COMSEC’s MSS has real-time, centralized integration and network security management capabilities.
The value of data in today’s information compels organizations to increase efforts to mitigate security risk and maintain continuous service delivery. MSS services are designed to ensure:
- customers' business continuity
- improved compliance
- and protection from financial loss.
Within MSS there are two divisions namely Security Operations Centre (SOC) and Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT).
COMSEC deploys experienced personnel; proven processes and continuous threat intelligence to help organs of state prevent, detect and respond to vulnerabilities and threats instantly.
