TALK TO AN EXPERT

On February 27, eSentire hosted a London lunch and learn event, “A Fresh Eye on Cybersecurity 2020” with our partner activereach. Approximately 30 IT decision makers from businesses of various sizes and industry segments joined us for an in-depth discussion on evolving technologies and the cybersecurity landscape.

A recurrent discussion theme was that a modern approach to cybersecurity protection is about mitigating risk created by a perfect storm of concurrent macro trends, such as:

The best part of working in the security industry today is bringing individuals together from various who often have differing challenges, approaches and levels of maturity in a safe-harbour environment to discuss, share and learn from each other. Following lunch, the “Fresh Eye” theme continued with a private pod tour, more comraderie and spectacular views from the London Eye.

We were happy to get some amazing reviews from our attendees:

“What a fantastic day! Well-presented and thought out event and what a treat to go on the Eye.” – UK Building Society participant

“The event provided a great overview of what you did and some really useful takeaways. It didn’t seem like marketing!” – Online Education Provider

“Thank you for the invite. It was a most enjoyable day.” – UK Financial Services

eSentire in the UK

activereach is one of our leading channel partners in the UK because our respective offerings are a natural combination … providing end-to-end security for businesses from active prevention to breach response (through eSentire’s Managed Detection and Response). This natural combination extends to our similar technology partners in CrowdStrike and Sumo Logic, providing more seamless experience for our customers.

Active prevention is crucial. Do you have plans for regular vulnerability assessments and security testing/attack simulation? Do you have the correct tools in place for adequate security hygiene, such as automated patching, email security or a Web Application Firewall deployed? Can you manage your tools effectively?

Breach response is critical and complementary to active prevention. Thirty-two percent of businesses recorded breaches or attacks in the UK resulting in a negative outcome, such as a loss of data or assets. The average mean time to identify (MTTI) an attack in the U.K. is 171 days and the mean time to contain (MTTC) is 72 days at an average cost of £3M. If an adversary breaks through the modern perimeter, how long will it take you to respond to contain, isolate and remediate that threat before it damages your business? At eSentire, we pride ourselves on our promise as the last line of defence for our customers. Our Security Operations Centres (SOCs) average 35 seconds to initial response of an attack and 20 minutes for containment.
