In Europe, enterprise cybersecurity is going through a phase of profound transformation.
By 2026, cyber attacks have become a reality for the vast majority of organizations. This is why most companies are increasingly determined to adopt new technologies and review their processes to better protect their information assets. However, investing in security solutions alone is not enough. The real challenge lies in identifying vulnerabilities proactively, before cyber criminals can exploit them.
Pressed by quantitatively and qualitatively increasing threats, organizations need to rethink tools, methodologies and strategies for defense and counterattack, and this regardless of whether we are talking about business or government, large multinationals or SMEs.
As analysts never fail to point out, it is now no longer a question of if, but when an intrusion will occur. The effects an attack will have on the operation of processes, the company's profit and loss account and - not least - reputation will depend substantially on the countermeasures activated on the information security and data protection front.
In Europe, too, corporate cybersecurity must take a quantum leap forward.
The aspect that most concerns CIOs and CISOs is the increasing automation of platforms used by attackers to breach networks and systems, whether through opportunistic initiatives or targeted operations. Reducing the manual activity of hackers not only makes them more pervasive and effective, but also expands the enterprise surface area and, more importantly, the time range that defenders must guard.
Not surprisingly, 27% all ransomware attacks occur on weekends, and 49% after business hours during weekdays. 70% of all enterprise sector infections happen when the organization is most unmanned.
In Europe, enterprise cybersecurity must therefore take a quantum leap, both with respect to the ability of solutions to thwart malware, and with respect to keeping them not only operational, but also at peak performance 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not to mention that specialized profiles are needed to properly orchestrate security suites.
Equipping yourself with good technology is only part of the path to protecting yourself from cyber crime. Outsourcing is the key to managed cybersecurity: a team of experts on hand who can take care of monitoring, analysis and response, anytime.
The new frontier of cybersecurity: the MDR model
If from the technological point of view the answer currently most consistent with this type of need is that offered in an integrated way by systems that leverage resources layered within the IT architecture-from dashboards capable of performing advanced real-time analysis and threat intelligence mechanisms-on the management level the winning model is the MDR (Managed Detection and Response) model. We're talking about an as-a-Service approach that, declined on the cybersecurity front, results in the consolidation of the partnership with one's security solutions provider (or the initiation of a new relationship with a specialized operator), who is entrusted with the remote management of the entire suite. The provider is also responsible for updating and enhancing it as risk scenarios and service levels agreed with the customer evolve.
Thanks to MDR, enterprises and public administrations have the opportunity to save a considerable amount of financial and human resources: how much would it cost, in fact, to create an entire team dedicated to cybersecurity, train it properly and keep it active H24. Then there is the issue of analytical and vertical expertise: why divert it to an area that-though strategic-doesn't generate value when it could instead be devolved to enterprise growth and activities of greater business impact? Many organizations have already recognized this shift. According to recent industry analyses, MDR adoption is expected to exceed 60% globally by 2026, consolidating its role as a reference model for modern and resilient cybersecurity strategies.
Cybersecurity as-a-service: the MDR service developed by CYBEROO
To take the cybersecurity of companies in Europe to a new level, CYBEROO has developed the Cyber Security Suite based on an Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service that includes advanced Cyber Threat Intelligence mechanisms managed by a 24/7 I-SOC that studies any anomalies reported by the systems to detect every possible type of threat. If a threat is detected, the team immediately takes action to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.
Going into detail, the Suite consists of two solutions:
Cypeer, the Next-Gen Intelligent Detection Platform, is based on a detection platform that collects and correlates all information and logs from existing security applications in the IT ecosystem, enabling the prevention and mitigation of potential cyber attacks. The platform harnesses the full power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to collect and correlate information from security applications and solutions that already exist in the installed IT ecosystem. It addresses some of the most significant issues facing modern enterprises for their protection – expertise, time, funds – by ensuring a complete picture of the enterprise IT security posture from an internal perspective to prevent threats and system attacks with a team of experts available to you 24/7.
CSI: Cyber Security Intelligence is a Threat Intelligence service carried out by CYBEROO’s team of Cyber Security Specialists and Ethical Hackers, based on Open Source Intelligence – consisting of the collection and analysis of data and threats from the Deep and Dark Web. It allows organisations to have a comprehensive view of the external threats affecting their web presence and to increase their awareness of the risks that can impact their business.
The CYBEROO Cyber Security Suite combines the advanced detection technology of Cypeer and CSI with the skills of more than 100 cybersecurity specialists active 24/7 who not only monitor and analyze the actual state of corporate cybersecurity, but also proactively report any threats and take specific actions to resolve them.
