Challenges of the Digital World
Our software pinpoints the critical information you need to anticipate, detect, and act on these challenges.
A Common Factor:
All these challenges have something in common: time. The longer it takes to find out about an issue, the more harm it’s likely to cause:
If you find out about a cybersecurity incident when it happens, for example, you’ll most likely be able to shut it down and clean it up without too much trouble.
However, most organisations don’t find out they’ve been breached until months later. By then your customers’ data has already been sold on the black market, and you may face fines, regulatory action, and lawsuits.
This doesn’t just apply to a data breach. For example, getting the answer faster may also help you catch a criminal, prevent a crime, win a legal case, or avoid regulatory fines.
When we talk about cybersecurity, we say most organizations today are right of breach: they’re trying to piece together what happened with limited information, weeks or months after a security incident.
We aim to move left of a breach, a proactive stance where you know where all your important data is stored and where you’re instrumented to collect all the data you need to quickly detect, block, and clean up after a security incident.
This concept also works for other business risks such as fraud, corruption, insider threats, and intellectual property theft. If you know what the risk is, you can collect the data and monitor the behaviour that will help you find and stop it.
