BEW Global Announces Launch of Next Generation Managed Security Services Provider Platform

Market Adoption of Intelisecure Managed Data Loss Prevention Services on the Rise

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, CO--(Marketwired - Nov 13, 2013) - BEW Global, an industry leader in data and critical asset protection programs announced the official launch of their Next Generation -- Managed Security Service Provider (NextGen MSSP) platform with record market adoption of their Intelisecure Managed Data Loss Prevention services.

BEW Global is the first NextGen MSSP in the industry to focus on the content and context approach of analyzing critical assets as they move about the organization's electronic nervous system, leveraging Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions as the primary monitoring technology. To support this approach, BEW Global's Intelisecure Managed Services provides a dedicated team of professionals to each customer's account. This enables a trusted partnership model that provides the most effective program for protecting an organization's most critical assets.

"BEW Global has spent more than ten years refining the content and context approach to critical asset protection, and over the past five years has successfully optimized the delivery of NextGen MSSP services leveraging DLP technology," said Rob Eggebrecht, President and CEO of BEW Global. "Instead of focusing on the management and monitoring of firewalls, IDS/IPS and other signature based technology tools like the majority of current traditional MSSPs, BEW Global leverages content aware technology tools including data loss prevention, email security and web security gateways which are capable of describing and detecting an organization's intellectual property (IP), research and development (R&D), personally identifiable information (PII) or any information that qualifies as a critical asset."

Traditional security operations centers (SOC) operate on a tiered escalation path model that primarily focuses on bits and bytes technology including firewalls, log monitoring and intrusion detection and prevention systems. These traditional SOCs leverage in-house developed security information and event management (SIEM) systems which are constantly monitoring the world of signature based attacks. BEW Global's SOC is comprised of a collection of dedicated teams that focus on individual customers and their unique critical asset protection requirements. Each team includes a combination of talented professionals including Information Security Engineers, Information Security Analysts, Business Analysts and a Team Manager who are able to work together quickly and efficiently to monitor and prevent the unauthorized creation, storage, usage or transmission of the customer's most critical assets.

"The bits and bytes approach gives companies a very basic, automated version of their risk profile. Tools such as IDS/IPS, AV, firewall, and anti-malware are important, but are not tuned to monitor the specific attributes of the critical assets of an organization. BEW Global's content and context approach is not a replacement for the bits and bytes approach, but an invaluable complimentary component to a layered security program," said Chuck Bloomquist, CTO of BEW Global. "It is a paradigm shift that offers more effective protection of critical assets by engaging different parts of the organization -- business unit members of Research & Development, Mergers & Acquisitions, Finance, Human Resources and Product/Service Management -- in the critical asset identification process."

BEW Global and their NextGen MSSP Intelisecure Managed Services are being adopted by the market on an international basis across all types of business types and industries. BEW Global achieved year-over-year record revenue growth of 79% in 2013 when comparing the same period of January through September 2012. The growth is primarily due to the acquisition of new Intelisecure Managed Services customers which saw an increase in revenue of 108% year-over-year from 2012 to 2013. "Our record 2013 financial performance is being driven by the rapid market adoption of our NextGen MSSP model and innovative and highly effective Intelisecure Managed Services," said Eggebrecht.
