Powerful Cyber Security Environment

Challenge 

In recent years, the companies’ IT department, responsible for providing the IT services for the whole group, has experienced a significant increase in critical and high vulnerabilities within their systems, resulting in a substantial rise in cyber risk. These vulnerabilities have been affecting the companies more, highlighting the need for enhanced cybersecurity measures. 

Solution 

By integrating a SecOps solution, our team successfully reduced the backlog of vulnerabilities within the organization. We achieved this by establishing clear ownership for vulnerable items, defining roles and responsibilities, and maintaining a well-structured CMDB (Configuration Management Database). This framework helped the company to differentiate vulnerabilities in critical and non-critical assets, allowing the automatic assignment of Vulnerability Response findings. As a result, we significantly reduced the Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), enhancing the company’s overall cybersecurity resilience and efficiency. 

Results 

Striving to bring valuable advancements, our team successfully delivered the following: 

• A well-structured Vulnerability Response system that provides a comprehensive view of the cybersecurity landscape 
• A better protection against potential cyber threats  
• Automated assignment of vulnerabilities with accelerates response time, reducing cyber risks 
• Clear ownership and defined roles, leading to greater accountability in managing vulnerabilities
