Our Security Monitoring Service, component of the TwentyFourSeven Assured Managed Monitoring Service, gives you daily assurance that your network remains secure on a cost effective basis.
By integrating vulnerability assessment and application scanners we have created a more effective and continuous security assessment tool which provides ongoing assessment and security assurance of your web sites and applications.
Many organisations are now recognising that whilst they seek to minimise risk by deploying security technology (e.g. firewalls, IDS) and by carrying out regular Penetration Testing of their key web sites and applications, this does not mean that they are
risk free.
To ensure protection from security threats and to ensure sound corporate governance, it is essential to ensure risk is continuously and consistently being mitigated to a level appropriate to the risk appetite of the organisation.
As systems and infrastructures change, new vulnerabilities are introduced. The bad guys are constantly developing new exploits, so you need to be vigilant.
Our Security Monitoring Service is custom configured based on the results of the Risk Assessment, ensuring you are kept up to date with the threats faced by your network and applications.
Key features of this service include:
- After initial risk assessment and subsequent Security Testing, we configure our vulnerability monitoring tool to your specific requirements, directing it at a defined set of IP addresses and applications
- We test the vulnerability of those addresses and applications daily, weekly, or monthly, against our commercial vulnerability and exploit databases
- We also identify changes to your infrastructure or applications which may have affected your risk profile
- Due to our in-depth understanding of yourinfrastructure, all false positives are tuned out
- Reports from this testing are made available to you by secure channels
- Your technical account manager notifies you of any vulnerabilities and the action to be taken
Security Monitoring is a vital component of the TwentyFourSeven Assured Managed Monitoring Service.
