The ‘Why’ matters more now

Not all businesses employ a huge cybersecurity unit or team that is armed with the required tools to uncover
threat intel. This is where it counts to have a managed security service vendor by your side to keep up with
evolving threat actors and sophisticated attacks.

It is pointless if you are attacked only to found about it a year later! This calls for having an advanced cyber
threat intelligence detection and emergency incident response model or mechanism in place to identify, de-
tect and respond.

A reliable managed security service provider can provide round the clock security by leveraging advanced
cyber threat intelligence tools such as WAF (Web Application Firewall), firewall intrusion prevention systems,
and other toolkits to help you monitor and protect your digital assets and
endpoints efficiently.

Threat intelligence is being increasingly adopted by companies around the world to manage and tame the
cost and risks associated with a breach or attack before it turns ugly. Data breach is every company’s worst
nightmare. Rather than distressing about it, businesses ought to reassess their security infrastructure and
leverage the power of threat intelligence to secure their assets from
various threat actors out there.
