What’s Holding Managed Security Service Providers Back?

/in


As CEO of Logpoint, Jesper is an expert on business and cybersecurity innovation.

Managed security service providers (MSSPs) enable organizations to outsource their security operations cost-effectively. Rather than devoting spend to building and maintaining an in-house security operations center (SOC), organizations can obtain such services from the MSSP and benefit from their scalability and expertise.

However, to obtain their business, MSSPs must compete effectively by delivering real-time managed detection and response SOC services. All indications are that they are currently struggling to do that.

We conducted a survey of MSSPs and found that 65% thought their SOC operations might be losing time due to inefficient processes, creating an increased risk to their customers through slower incident response times. Some SOCs were not integrated with other technologies, for instance, and only 25% were using automated playbooks or procedures for alert response—meaning the vast majority were manually reviewing their system alerts.

Consequently, over half (57%) said the gap between mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) was below expectations. It’s a gap being widened by SOC operations failing to automatically feed threat intelligence to security solutions such as endpoint detection and response (EDR), firewalls and user management—delaying detection and response further. Moreover, a third of those questioned (35%) said they did not have the best processes or tools for building detection patterns, preventing them from identifying emerging threats.

Forward-Thinking

There is a clear understanding of where MSSPs are today versus where they want to be, with most stating they intend to create new services over the next 12 to 24 months—including EDR, network detection and response (NDR), managed computer security incident response team (CSIRT), security orchestration and response (SOAR), managed detection and response (MDR), and SOC for small and medium-sized businesses. In order to roll out such services, MSSPs need to reassess their business processes now and explore how they can implement automation and orchestration.

Opti9 Launches Standalone Ransomware Detection Platform and Managed Services for Veeam Solutions

Mar 23, 2023 (PRNewswire via COMTEX) —
PR Newswire

GARDEN CITY, N.Y., March 23, 2023

GARDEN CITY, N.Y., March 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Opti9 Technologies, LLC. (Opti9), a trusted North American managed cloud services provider, announces Observr Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ransomware detection and standalone managed services – two new standalone service offerings that cater to organizations leveraging Veeam® Software, the leader in Modern Data Protection. Opti9 is a Platinum Veeam Cloud & Services Provider (VCSP) partner and a Veeam Technical Alliance Partner (TAP).

Opti9 launches Observr ransomware detection and managed services for Veeam.

As the complexity of organizations’ IT continues to evolve, technical leaders are increasingly looking to shift ownership to 3rd party experts for critical layers of their stack. This is especially true for components such as backups and disaster recovery, which must provide resilience despite constant changes such as the shift to hybrid clouds and SaaS, application modernization, use of software-defined networking, and the increased risks associated with ransomware and data theft. To address these needs, many organizations turn to managed service providers to consume backups or disaster recovery-as-a-service (BaaS/DRaaS). However, the rigidity and isolated nature of most of these offerings do not address the complexity or risks faced today. Organizations are looking to decouple value-added managed services, as well as critical security monitoring from infrastructure services. Today, Opti9 introduces its standalone offerings for Veeam, which are completely independent of its BaaS and DRaaS services: managed services for Veeam Software and its AI-based ransomware detection and remediation tool, Observr.

“Opti9 has leveraged Veeam’s feature rich API in an innovative and unique way to address the very real security challenges being faced by IT organizations,” says Danny Allan, Chief Technology Officer at Veeam. “Observr…
