Company doubles down on investments in
cybersecurity to protect and defend public safety agencies and
enterprises
Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) today announced expanded
cybersecurity services to help public safety and enterprises
continuously secure their mission-critical operations. Today,
cybersecurity breaches are occurring at a rate and level never
before seen. Motorola Solutions’ expanded cybersecurity services
help public safety and enterprise customers better defend their
information networks, employees and assets against today’s
threats.
“Securing our products, software and customer networks to
deliver public safety systems that are resilient to cyber attacks
has always been a priority,” said Scott Kaine, vice president of
Cybersecurity Services. “As we’ve seen, though, especially this
year during the COVID-19 pandemic, many organizations are being
forced to accelerate their digital transformation while
simultaneously dealing with a dramatic increase in cybercrime,
including ransomware attacks on cities, states and public agencies.
With the additional services we’re adding to our portfolio,
customers can be better protected against threats that may enable
cybercriminals to get into devices and systems and access what have
been traditionally closed networks.”
Motorola Solutions’ cybersecurity services portfolio, which
aligns with the National Institute of Standards and Technologies
(NIST) cybersecurity framework, includes:
- Managed security services — Security monitoring,
incident management and reporting, patching and advanced threat
detection and response to protect endpoints, networks and cloud
applications and infrastructure.
- Advisory services — NIST-aligned risk assessments and
consulting, penetration testing, governance and compliance.
- System recovery services — Business continuity and
incident response planning, system recovery and post-incident
analysis.
- Cybersecurity training — Training and certifications for
cloud security, incident response management and risk
management.
Cybercrime will cost the global economy an estimated (1) $6
trillion by 2021, driven by complex IT environments, a limited pool
of cybersecurity professionals and the ever-growing arsenal of
tools and opportunities for cybercriminals, creating a perfect
storm for organizations around the world. According to a recent
study (2), 56 percent of IT security professionals surveyed said
their organizations were at risk due to cybersecurity staff
shortages. Motorola Solutions’ expanded cybersecurity services
include a 24/7 security operations center (SOC) staffed by a
dedicated team of experts who proactively monitor cybersecurity
events around the clock, helping organizations to detect and
respond to threats faster and bridge the cybersecurity talent
gap.
“At Motorola Solutions, we believe safety is the foundation of
everything,” added Kaine. “Through strategic investments in new
acquisitions and our ongoing commitment to product innovation,
we’re sending a clear message to the market and our customers that
we’re serious about cybersecurity.”
Recent acquisitions include Delta Risk, a leading consulting and
managed security services provider (MSSP), and Lunarline, a
professional services firm with deep expertise in training, FedRAMP
and Third-Party Assessments.
