Symantec Managed Security Services Seminar

CST together with Symantec would like to invite you on March 3, 2011

to learn more about cloud based network security services. It is typical for the complexity of an organisation’s network security to grow disproportionally over time, one answer to this challenge is to delegate the most complex and time intensive tasks.

The Symantec Managed Security Service (MSS) is a proven ten year plus, 24/7/365, global coverage Service that can do just that, a few of its specialist security services include:

· Firewalls:- analysis of traffic, threats, trends and attacks.

· Intrusion detection systems:- identity real attacks, as opposed to false alerts.

· Endpoint security:- Safeguarding the endpoint no matter where or when.

· System log scrutiny:- collection, archive and reporting.

· Exploit & vulnerability analysis:- detect the weakness before it develops an incident.

The Benefits of a Managed Service are vast, however the underlying motive is to simplify IT security management and reduce costs, some of the reasons our customers move to a managed security service are as follows:

· Recognition to do more - they understand and wish to improve their security posture, (especially as threat become more complex and prolific) but are unsure what to address first for the most return on the investment including just where to start.

· Resourcing– they consider it is either a matter of employing more staff or heaping more responsibilities on existing workloads, neither are attractive for an organisation that wants to have its staff focusing on its core business practises.

· Compliance – Audit, regulatory or trade policies have resulted in a mandate to undertake a network or computing security function that is out of current the skill and resource pool.
