Minimize Cybersecurity Risk and Relieve Overstretched Security Teams with Trend Micro Support and Service Bundles

Trend Micro Incorporated | September 07, 2021

Trend Micro Incorporated a global cybersecurity leader, today announced the launch of Trend Micro Service One, consolidating its managed services to optimize enterprise threat management. The new services bundles, which can include premium support, an early warning service, Managed XDR and incident response, help customers prevent, detect and respond to cyber threats faster by supplementing internal resources.

The prevalence of cybersecurity threats and the dynamic threat landscape leave businesses vulnerable and put security experts in high demand to triage and investigate incidents.

According to Aaron Sherrill, Senior Research Analyst at 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence[1], "Security teams are struggling to understand the right approach or strategy to employ to detect and respond to advanced threats. While most organizations have a plethora of security tools at their disposal, they are creating enormous amounts of data that must be explored and inspected. It is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between the noise and indicators of serious threats – especially complex, distributed threats that operate low and slow to avoid detection."

Over half of Security Operations Center (SOC) teams feel overwhelmed by alerts and aren't confident in their abilities to prioritize or respond to these alerts, according to a recent Trend Micro survey. Outsourcing security management significantly lightens the workloads and saves businesses from catastrophic breaches. 

"The weight of the world was felt by our security team as we work tirelessly to enable organization success in the digital transformation journey," said Andre Castleberry, cybersecurity manager of Hall County, Georgia. "Trend Micro's managed services have empowered our small team to manage risk and compliance at scale. Having threat experts support day-to-day detection and response for our security platform allows our employees to focus resources on serving our constituents."

Trend Micro's expert threat analysis and monitoring via its different services helps fortify business risk management plans. Managed threat detection and response across a complete security platform takes the burden of threat data triage off of stretched security teams, allowing internal resources to focus on business enablement.

"Security teams are stretched to the max while the business risk of cybersecurity continues to increase," said Wendy Moore, vice-president of product marketing for Trend Micro. "We want to help make our customers' lives easier while also minimizing their risk of attack. Providing better insight across the entire security platform, from product enablement, to risk monitoring and mitigation, to attack detection and response is one way we're doing that. Our proactive services that cross the threat lifecycle enables more advanced visibility and protection, helping businesses manage threats most effectively."

Enterprise security requires streamlined operations with a broader perspective, including better context to hunt, detect and contain threats to best manage the business risk introduced by cyber threats. Trend Micro's powerful cybersecurity platform detects malicious activities, with threat intelligence from various sources, helping catch threats faster and improve investigations, analysis, and response times, while eliminating pressure from the SOC team so they can focus on high value activities.

Leveraging Trend Micro's services adds business value by combining premium customer support with such options as:

Early Warning Service scans for early indicators of compromise and then alert customers of potential threats before they cause system harm.
Incident Response provides expert resources in case of a critical, active attack.
Managed Detection and Response monitors alerts and logs across the entire environment, identifying and investigating events and providing ongoing threat expertise.
Trend Micro is committed to supporting customers through their digital transformation journey, supporting internal resources, so customers get the most out of their security platform.

Lookout Launches Mobile Endpoint Detection and Response for MSSPs to Close the Mobile Security Gap for Customers

Prnewswire | April 20, 2023

Lookout, Inc., the endpoint-to-cloud security company, today announced the availability of Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security, the industry's most advanced mobile endpoint detection and response (EDR) offering for managed security service providers (MSSPs). This solution enables MSSPs to deliver a complete turn-key program for identifying risk, protecting sensitive data and securing their customers' mobile devices. With Lookout's Mobile EDR, MSSPs can help organizations reduce the risk of a data breach through mobile phishing, ransomware and exploitation of device and app vulnerabilities. While businesses are adapting to the "new normal" of remote working and continuing to invest in mobile devices, many are still struggling with keeping up with mobile security. According to industry data, less than half of SMBs specifically have any form of mobile security in place1 – as a result mobile threats are on the rise year over year. In Lookout's recent Global State of Mobile Phishing report, 2022 marked the highest percentage of mobile phishing encounter rates ever, with an average of more than 30% of personal and enterprise users exposed to these attacks every quarter. Lookout also found that users on all devices – whether personal or work provided – are tapping more on mobile phishing links in comparison to just two years ago2. A Turn-Key Program to Close Security Gaps and Manage Mobile Risk Lookout's Mobile EDR program for MSSPs allows them to address these mobile security challenges head on – by partnering with Lookout, MSSPs have access to the Lookout mobile dataset of security telemetry, which is built on graph-based machine intelligence that analyzes data globally from more than 210 million devices, 175 million apps and ingests four million web URLs daily. In addition, Lookout's comprehensive Mobile EDR solution enables MSSPs to detect and block mobile phishing attempts; detect unauthorized camera and mic access through surveillanceware; detect and prevent credential theft and data exfiltration; detect device compromise; check all apps for risky behavior; and detect app and OS vulnerabilities. Lookout also helps MSSPs reduce resource constraints by decreasing their policy administration time by 80%. Other operational benefits for MSSPs include a 95% user self remediation rate and optimized battery consumption leading to less support tickets as well as built-in multi-tenancy for easier management. "As the threat landscape becomes increasingly sophisticated, businesses of all sizes must evolve their security strategy to keep up with and proactively address these threats, yet many do not have the security tools or skill sets in place to tackle this on their own," said Eva-Maria Elya, vice president, MSSP Sales at Lookout. "The MSSP ecosystem becomes a natural partner for them to turn to for help in managing their security posture, including identifying risk, ensuring compliance and safeguarding sensitive data across their device landscape. By extending our channel partner program to MSSPs, we help ensure these customers have access to the best security solutions delivered through the leading MSSP organizations." The Lookout Mobile EDR program for MSSPs is available today. For more information on how Lookout supports SMB customers and MSSPs, click here.
