The specialist asset manager, despite having several state-of-the-art security systems and hardware solutions, was struggling to maintain its cybersecurity vigilance. The firm was receiving numerous alerts from its antivirus and perimeter security products, but it was challenging for the IT team to determine the importance of these alerts. The company was aware of the need for a team of cybersecurity experts who could monitor their systems 24/7 and respond appropriately to the alerts. However, setting up such a specialist operation in-house was not a viable option due to the high costs involved. The firm was in need of a solution that could help them filter and understand the information being fed by their security systems, detect malicious activity, and act quickly to protect the business.
The customer is a specialist asset manager based in the UK, investing in private debit, credit, and equity. The firm manages critical client assets worth billions and is concerned about the growing cyber threat and potential impact that a large-scale breach could have on its business. The firm already had several state-of-the-art security systems and hardware solutions focused on the perimeter of its network. However, they were struggling to maintain their cybersecurity vigilance due to the ever-changing threat landscape and the overwhelming number of security alerts they were receiving.
The specialist asset manager subscribed to Redscan's award-winning Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service.
