F-Secure has Launched a Modular Platform for Cyber Security Servitization

F-Secure | May 20, 2021

Today, cybersecurity provider F-Secure launched F-Secure Elements: a replacement cloud-based platform that streamlines how organizations provide cybersecurity services. Available from F-Secure's service partners with fixed-term license subscriptions, or usage-based billing for greater flexibility, F-Secure Elements empowers organizations to select cybersecurity services on terms that accommodate their needs.

Many organizations operate in complex environments dominated by a variety of dynamic risks and opportunities. Keeping these complexities in mind, also because of the rising costs of security and therefore the lack of experienced security professionals, it's no surprise that an awesome number of organizations want to simplify how they source cybersecurity capabilities.

F-Secure Executive vice-chairman of Business Security Juha Kivikoski says these demands are driving a shift toward providing cybersecurity as services instead of products.

"Even with updates, products are static and can't adapt fast enough to stay up with threats, or businesses, as they evolve. Services help businesses stay agile and are less expensive when delivered right, which is why the longer term of our industry is in delivering everything as a service," he explained. "Having a platform designed for the servitization of cybersecurity can help organizations recover protection, which is why simplicity and adaptability are F-Secure Elements' core design principles."

F-Secure Elements may be a modular platform that mixes endpoint protection, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability management, and collaboration protection for cloud services (such as Microsoft Office 365).

F-Secure Elements' key capabilities and benefits include:

• Comprehensive situational awareness and meaningful visibility across assets, configurations, vulnerabilities, threats, and events.
• Streamlined and autonomous operations to make sure efficient workflows and faster responses to real threats.
• Real-time, connected data flow between elements to enable faster detection of threats.
• Intelligent, extended detection and response capabilities for data-informed decisions.
• On-demand choice to elevate difficult cases to F-Secure experts.
