LONDON and BOSTON,
Oct. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Cybereason, the leader in operation centric attack
protection, and Aon, a leading global professional services firm,
today announced an alliance to help protect clients from
sophisticated cyber attacks.
The Cybereason Defence Platform, together with Aon's Cyber
Solutions, will enable clients to better prevent, detect and
respond to cyber threats utilising a combination of services and
solutions. This alliance will help to improve the overall security
resilience of clients of both firms, to prevent cyber risks from
materialising into consequential breaches while managing the impact
of cyber incidents through enhanced incident response
capabilities.
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the nature of business
and launched many organisations into an accelerated digital
evolution, consequently extending their attack surface and
intensifying cyber risk. Through this alliance, organisations will
benefit from Cybereason early attack detection and response
capabilities to improve client security and maximise return on
investment, together with Aon's experience in cyber risk
management, technical proficiency and cyber incident response,
helping clients assess, define and improve security capabilities to
navigate this long-tail risk.
"Clients are making critical business decisions daily and rely
on Aon's Cyber Solutions for insights that align security, risk and
insurance. Their Security Advisory services assist in enhancing
existing cyber security strategies, the development of security and
threat management capabilities, as well as incident response plans,
which we then deliver through our advanced EDR capabilities," said
Tristian Elder, Vice President of
EMEA Partnerships, Cybereason. "We are honoured to work with
Aon and we look forward to seeing our clients draw a wealth of
benefits from our offerings."
Aon's Cyber Solutions offers holistic cyber security, risk and
insurance management, investigative skills, and proprietary
technologies to help clients uncover and quantify cyber risks,
protect critical assets, and recover from cyber incidents.
"As a trusted advisor, we strongly believe in providing
organisations with the critical insights they need to make
better-informed, risk-based decisions relating to cyber security,
especially during an incident or potential breach. We want to help
our clients remain resilient when preparing for evolving threats
such as ransomware in today's dynamic threat landscape," said
Kraig Rutland, Vice President, Cyber
Security EMEA at Aon. "The alliance with Cybereason will provide
clients with world-class threat analysis, investigation and
response at scale."
