Comprehensive Cyber Security Protection – Nexigen – Integrated Approach Reading time: 12 mins

In today’s interconnected world, cybersecurity is not just a necessity; it’s a vital component that can make or break your business. While large corporations often garner media attention for data breaches, mid-sized organizations are not immune to cyber threats. In fact, they may be more vulnerable due to limited resources and expertise in cybersecurity measures. That’s where we come in. As a leading cyber security firm, we specialize in offering an integrated, comprehensive suite of services designed specifically to meet the complex needs of mid-sized organizations. In this article, we’ll delve into our protection methodology and explain how each service contributes to a more secure and resilient cyber environment for your business.

What it is:

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Single Sign-On (SSO) act as the first line of defense for your Software as a Service (SaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) ecosystem.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

MFA requires users to present two or more forms of identification before gaining access to an account. Coupled with SSO, which allows users to log in to multiple services with a single set of credentials, this system significantly reduces the likelihood of unauthorized access.

Example: If an employee’s password is compromised, the additional layer of authentication—like a text message code or biometric data—prevents unauthorized access. This is especially critical for mid-sized organizations that may not have a large IT department but need robust protection against credential-based attacks.

What it is:

Our service scans the dark web for any leaked credentials associated with your organization and alerts you immediately. Additionally, the Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) rotates passwords locally, adding another layer of defense.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

This proactive monitoring can be a lifesaver for organizations that don’t have the bandwidth to constantly monitor cyber threats.

Example: If an employee’s email and password are found on the dark web, our system will automatically alert you and recommend actions, such as forcing a password reset, thus preventing any potential unauthorized access.  Password managers perform this service as a feature of the service along with LAPS for securing your credentials from attackers.

What it is:

Our Cloud Detection and Response system constantly monitors your SaaS and PaaS platforms for any indicators of compromise and automatically takes remediation actions.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

Mid-sized organizations are increasingly relying on cloud services, but may not have the expertise to monitor these platforms 24/7.

Example: If an abnormal data transfer is detected, our system will automatically halt the process and flag it for review, thereby preventing potential data leakage or loss.

What it is:

Managed EDR service with 24×7 Security Operations Center (SOC) support.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

EDR goes beyond traditional antivirus solutions by continuously monitoring and collecting data from endpoints.

Example: In the case of a ransomware attack, our 24×7 SOC can isolate affected systems, thereby containing the threat and minimizing damage.

What it is:

Utilizing Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and network analyzers, this service allows for automated remediation actions based on network traffic and other system indicators.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

Network security is often a weakness in smaller organizations. Our automated system identifies and mitigates threats in real-time.

Example: If a network scan detects an unauthorized device trying to connect to the network, our system can automatically block access, thereby preventing a potential security breach.

What it is:

We offer Human Security Awareness Training and testing services to educate your staff on best practices and how to recognize threats.

Why it’s Ideal for Mid-Sized Organizations:

Your employees are the first line of defense against cyber threats. By training them effectively, you are building a human firewall against cyber attacks.

Example: Employees who are educated about phishing scams are less likely to click on malicious links, thereby reducing the risk of a breach.

The beauty of our protection methodology lies in its integrated approach. Each service complements the others, offering a layered security strategy that addresses a major portion of a client’s risk profile. This is particularly effective for mid-sized organizations that require robust security measures but may not have the resources for a dedicated, in-house cybersecurity team.

In Summary: Cybersecurity is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Mid-sized organizations need a tailored approach that offers comprehensive protection without breaking the bank, and our cyber security firm delivers just that. With our suite of integrated services, we provide mid-sized businesses with the tools they need to not only protect themselves today but also adapt and evolve in the face of ever-changing cyber threats.
