ePlus Helps Organizations Navigate and Address Cyber Security Architecture Complexities
May 08 2019 - 08:30AM
ePlus inc. (NASDAQ NGS: PLUS) today announced a new customized,
consultative approach to cyber security operations that will
provide customers with faster, more accurate and actionable
visibility into areas of cyber security weakness and opportunity
across their environments.
“IT organizations are suffering from a perfect
storm of vulnerabilities: significant staffing and resource
shortages, security skills gaps and between 40-50 costly security
tools that are being underutilized and underleveraged,” said Lee
Waskevich, VP of Security at ePlus. “It’s important that
organizations optimize their defenses by knowing exactly what they
have in place, how it is being used and how they can leverage
technology to improve their security posture.”
From analysis and assessment to consolidation
and integration, the ePlus approach to Optimizing Your Defenses
takes a wholistic view of an organization’s existing security
landscape, including tool utilization, optimization and output. The
company then helps organizations embrace security platforms
centered on integration and centralized management that enables
them to more proactively and quickly use their security data to
address risks and prevent threats.
As a flexible alternative, ePlus also provides
managed security services to help organizations optimize their
security infrastructures more quickly.
A recent report from the Ponemon Institute and
DomainTools confirms that in the midst of a major cyber security
talent shortage, IT security professionals are turning to automated
solutions to fill skills gaps. ePlus managed services and
automation workshops can help lessen the burden on an
organization’s internal security personnel.
“Most organizations are wasting money by not
properly utilizing security technology in which they’ve already
made investments by properly automating,” said Mr. Waskevich. “IT
teams are overwhelmed with the lack of qualified staff to support
organizational security as well as the wide range of toolsets they
have in place across their architecture. This leads to
inefficiencies in how these tools relate to one another and
ultimately how an organization is able to react to the data being
provided in a timely and actionable manner that protects their data
assets.”
As part of its consultative approach, ePlus
offers security orchestration automation and response (SOAR)
workshops, which can help analyze, evaluate and recommend the best
ways for organizations to leverage automation and orchestration to
help maximize use of non-manual resources. ePlus engineers work to
identify the security architecture that exists at an organization
today, assess what tools they have, and then determine how those
tools could be used in a more efficient and automated manner.
ePlus leverages partnerships with leading
technology providers and couples those relationships with our deep
technical knowledge and experience to provide a comprehensive
approach to creating the best security orchestration and automation
architecture for your unique needs.
SOAR workshops can be scheduled by visiting
