Protective services overview
Technology
The deployment of an Anti-ransomware virtual service delivers ongoing threat monitoring, protecting critical data stored across your network and cloud environments from being stolen and potentially held hostage with the encryption of your most valuable data assets.
People
A skilled team of intelligence specialists and analysts ensure round the clock 24x7x365 protection. Real-time ransomware monitoring coupled with incident response means we can shut-down and quarantine any ransomware attack in less than a second.
Process
Alongside 24x7x365 management, ransomware monitoring and incident response, detailed root cause analysis is used to identify the entry method of any malware attacks. Automated quarantine processes are actioned to limit the impact of any breach, and our expert team can also support internal resource with any recovery management processes.
Technology
The LogSecure SIEM delivers a correlated view of security risks across everything running on your network and in the cloud. A tightly-integrated and extensive Global Threat Intelligence Network (GTIN) and I3 Security Incident Management Portal identify potential compromise and provide real-time security alerts to enhance our detection and auto-remediation capability while expediting root cause analysis.
People
An expert security team underpins our SIEM services with 24x7x365 threat monitoring, internet-based threat hunting and a customised log monitoring approach to support your systems and bespoke applications. A Security Assurance Consultant ensures best practice is enforced at all times, with a dedicated Service Delivery Manager in place to ensure all commitments and expectations are met.
Process
24x7x365 monitoring from a UK-based Security Operations Centre ensures that your business is protected around the clock. Early warning threat intelligence updates help ensure reinforced protections are in-situ ahead of an attack, while ongoing tuning of alert rules see that your service evolves in line with your business. We’ll also provide monthly Key Risk Indicator (KRI) reports, the ‘metrics that matter’, and threat intelligence summaries. When an incident arises, we’ll take the lead in working with your internal teams and relevant 3rd parties to action quick and effective resolutions.
Technology
Our always-on virtual scanners perform host discovery, vulnerability detection and compliance scanning to identify potential security risks for further SOC action. This includes Web Application Scanning, Real-time Scanning Agents, PCI Compliance Scanning and a live Threat Intelligence feed for newly disclosed vulnerabilities and emerging threats. Vulnerability insights are also used to inform tailored client reports and correlated within the SOC’s SIEM service.
People
A skilled security team supports and interprets every element of Vulnerability Management, providing real-time analysis and linkage with the SIEM system to ensure all risks are assessed in the round. Singularly, the SOC delivers regular vulnerability reports, configuring virtual scanner tools for ongoing optimised performance and integration with other SOC services. A Security Assurance Consultant is always on hand to ensure best practice is upheld, while a dedicated Service Delivery Manager ensures all service expectations are met.
Process
Once deployed, your scanning and management service works in conjunction with relevant and supporting SOC services and is continually optimised to ensure assets are hardened and patched to the latest level. Additionally, tailored, ad-hoc scans can also be actioned on request by a client via the i3 portal, or on notification of a zero-day vulnerability.

Liam opens an email attachment from a known client; unfortunately his client’s laptop has been compromised and he opens a document infected with ransomware.
The ransomware starts to encrypt his shared folders, but in a sub-second response his desktop is quarantined by our anti-ransomware system which alerts the SOC team in real-time.
The SOC team notified the client’s IT team and commence incident response processes, using their SIEM they performed root cause analysis which identified the entry method of the malware (via email). The SOC obtained a copy of the malware for analysis in their malware labs, they detonated the malware safely to study its behaviour and identify its spreading mechanism to find it was wormable (able to spread across the network on open ports to vulnerable systems). Armed with this knowledge the SOC guided the IT Team during the recovery process to ensure the malware was not persistent and did not reinfect the systems after recovery or reattempt encryption.
To further protect the client from future attacks, the SOC team deploy real-time vulnerability scanning agents on workstation and servers to ensure the hosts are hardened and patched to the latest level to protect against wormable ransomware.
