Cyber Security as a Service

Embracing Complexity ...  Delivering Simplicity

Its not about whether or not you will be attacked ... It's more about whether you will be ready when it happens, because it will.

We protect systems, networks and data from cyber attacks which are aimed at accessing, changing or destroying sensitive information, interrupting normal business processes and/or extorting money from businesses, government departments, state-owned enterprises or individuals via ransomware.

​

We apply a proactive approach that builds cyber resilience. It involves building the capacity to continue operations and recover quickly from cyber attacks by implementing a cyber resilience framework. Cyber security, which focuses on prevention and protection,  is not enough. Cyber resilience acknowledges that attacks are inevitable and consequently adds incident response, business continuity, risk management, employee training and awareness and good policies to help in strengthening the ability withstand and recover from cyber attacks. 

Our Services

Because most countries do not have well-developed cybersecurity laws, standards frameworks and controls, we borrow from those that do and apply the principles where relevant and necessary, whilst complying with all local and international laws and prescripts.

 

As such, we abide by, subscribe to and apply international laws, standards and frameworks such as ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27002, ISO/IEC 27031, the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF), the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), the Center for Internet Security Controls (CIS) and the Control Objectives for IT (COBIT) from ISACA.

  • Also called ethical hacking, penetration tests are simulated cyber attacks intended to identify any weak spots in a system's defenses which attackers could take advantage of.

  • Security Governance and Compliance as a Service

    Security Governance as a Service (SGaaS) helps organizations manage their information and cyber security activities to ensure they meet strategic objectives and contribute to overall performance. SGaaS can be a good solution for enterprises that want to improve their security programmes while focusing on their core business. SGaaS can also help companies demonstrate to auditors that they are taking the necessary steps to implement their security obligations. 

  • Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS)

    Security operations center as a service (SOCaaS) is a cloud-based subscription model for managed threat detection and response that includes best-in-class SOC solutions and capabilities to help fill in gaps on existing security teams.

    ​

    Like a traditional, on-premises SOC, SOCaaS includes 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, prevention and analysis of your attack surface, including internet traffic, corporate networks, desktops, servers, endpoint devices, databases, applications, cloud infrastructure, firewalls, threat intelligence, intrusion prevention, and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems.

    ​

    Cyberthreats include ransomware, denial of service (DoS), distributed denial of service (DDoS), malware, phishing, smishing, insider threats, credential theft, zero days and more.

  • Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) as a Service 

    Security information and event management (SIEM) as-a-service (aaS) combines security event management (SEM) and security information management (SIM) to monitor threats, provide real-time security alerts, and increase compliance. SEM centralizes log storage and interpretation, while SIM collects data for analysis and reporting.

    ​

    SIEM as a service combines these two systems together in order to enable the fast analysis and identification of security events in real time. It enables organisations to quickly benefit from Veritech's expertise and resources as an experienced security provider without the associated costs and challenges of running a SIEM in-house. This enables businesses to achieve greater cyber resilience, while maximising their security investments.

  • Identity and Access Management as a Service

    Regardless of where employees are working, they need to access their organization’s resources like apps, files, and data. The traditional way of doing things was to have the vast majority of workers work on-site, where company resources were kept behind a firewall. Once on-site and logged in, employees could access the things they needed.

    ​

    Now, however, hybrid work is more common than ever and employees need secure access to company resources whether they’re working on-site or remotely. This is where identity and access management (IAM) comes in. The organization’s IT department needs a way to control what users can and can’t access so that sensitive data and functions are restricted to only the people and things that need to work with them.

    ​

    IAM gives secure access to company resources—like emails, databases, data, and applications—to verified entities, ideally with a bare minimum of interference. The goal is to manage access so that the right people can do their jobs and the wrong people, like hackers, are denied entry.

    The need for secure access extends beyond employees working on company machines. It also includes contractors, vendors, business partners, and people working on personal devices. IAM makes sure that each person who should have access has the right level of access at the right time on the right machine. Because of this, and the role it plays in an organization’s cybersecurity, IAM is a vital part of modern IT.

    ​

    With an IAM system, the organization can quickly and accurately verify a person’s identity and that they have the necessary permissions to use the requested resource during each access attempt.

  • Backup as a Sevice (BaaS)

    Backup as a Service (BaaS) is a managed, third-party service where data is stored in a secure, hybrid cloud or off-site cloud repository—safe from unauthorized access, corruption, hacking, or theft.

    ​

    Why is backup as a service important?

     

    Given the exponential rate at which data is growing and the siloed nature of legacy infrastructure, many IT organizations are finding data backup to be increasingly challenging, time consuming, and costly. These same organizations are seeing cloud adoption provide cost and operational efficiencies as well as strengthened security across industries.

    Organizations spending an increasing percent of shrinking or static IT budgets on installing, maintaining, and managing data backup infrastructure want to do more with less but have little money—or time—for other business-critical activities.

    ​

    Data backup as a service solves their time and cost challenges by supporting:

    • The shift to OpEx — Eliminate CapEx and upgrade headaches with easy subscription-based pricing

    • Simplified backup and recovery — Eliminate time-consuming infrastructure silos and simplify management by moving backup off-site to a service provider

    • Defend data against threats — Provide air gap protection for the most valuable data off-site on redundant infrastructure and when needed rapidly recover it to anywhere
