Cloud Security Assessments help organizations
understand cloud-specific threats and security controls while
improving detection, investigation, and response
FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), the intelligence-led security
company, today announced the availability of two new FireEye®
Mandiant® services. Cloud Security Assessments help organizations
evaluate and harden security in cloud platforms, and Cyber Defense
Operations consulting services help organizations achieve security
transformation by improving the detection and response capabilities
of their security operations center (SOC).
“For more than 15 years, FireEye Mandiant has been at the
forefront of cyber security and cyber threat intelligence. We have
a deep understanding of evolving attacker behaviors and motivations
derived direct from the frontlines that extends across the cloud
and on-premises environments. Our Cloud Security Assessments and
Cyber Defense Operations consulting services are two new offerings
to help clients protect their key assets before, during and after
an incident,” said Jurgen Kutscher, EVP of Service Delivery at
FireEye.
Address Common Cloud-Specific Issues with Cloud Security
Assessments
Almost all major organizations are using or planning to use
cloud environments for a variety of reasons, including cost and
operational efficiencies. However, cloud security implementation
requires a completely different approach and specialized skills
compared to on-premises. Without the proper knowledge and
contextual understanding of cloud security, the benefits associated
with the cloud can quickly become diluted as organizations
inadvertently expose themselves to greater levels of risk.
Cloud Security Assessments are based on the latest ways that
attackers bypass cloud security measures, as observed on the
frontlines by FireEye Mandiant experts. Available on the most
popular cloud-based platforms including Microsoft Office 365,
Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Google Cloud, these
assessments address common misconfigurations and issues with how
organizations utilize and integrate the cloud into their existing
IT and security programs. Through tactical coaching and
comprehensive recommendations, organizations achieve increased risk
visibility and enhanced functional capabilities.
“Given the critical nature of Office 365 to our company and the
type of data stored there, it's important for us to validate the
security of the service. The FireEye Mandiant Cloud Security
Assessment helped us understand the risks, while identifying areas
for improvement and actionable recommendations. We were able to
greatly improve our organization’s secure use of Office 365 with
the guidance from Mandiant,” said the CSO of a global enterprise
technology company.
Cloud Security Assessments can be customized to suit
organizational budgets and security program objectives. For more

Accelerate Security Transformation with Cyber Defense
Operations
It’s one thing to develop playbooks and define best practices,
and it’s quite another to effectively implement those detection and
response processes into how a SOC operates. With Cyber Defense
Operations, FireEye Mandiant experts help to accelerate an
organization’s security transformation initiatives by providing
hands-on keyboard support for critical SOC roles. First,
consultants conduct an initial evaluation that helps to define the
transformation goals and objectives that will best mature the
organization’s capabilities. Examples of these objectives include
building out threat hunting programs and security metrics programs.
Dedicated Mandiant personnel will then offer technical event
triage, analysis, and investigation support, operating within the
client’s environment. Through this process, areas for maturation
are identified and pursued, helping to identify and resolve
visibility gaps and procedural issues. Throughout, knowledge
transfer is continually conducted with the organization’s existing
detection and response team to help ensure changes are effectively
operationalized.
