What is Managed Vulnerability Management (MVM / AKA VMaaS)?
This authorized simulation of a cyber attack helps to identify exploitable vulnerabilities in your systems.
What is a Penetration Test?
This critical cybersecurity capability responsible for monitoring, detection & response, commonly abbreviated SOC
What is Security Operations Center?
This type of malware encrypts files and demands payment for decryption.
What is ransomware?
This security tool continuously monitors endpoints for suspicious activities and provides real-time detection of threats.
What is Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)?

This service offers a combination of expertise and technology to detect dynamic threats quickly across your entire technology ecosystem.
What is Managed Detection & Response (MDR)?
This analysis identifies discrepancies between your current security posture and desired state against regulatory requirements or security frameworks.
What is a gap assessment (aka risk assessment)?
Proactively searching through networks to detect advanced threats that evade existing security solutions.
What is threat hunting?
This increasingly comon attack method targets trusted third-party vendors or software providers to compromise their customers, allowing attackers to affect multiple organizations with a single breach.
What is Supply Chain Attacks?
This cloud security technology can identify and remediate misconfigurations.
