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
A Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention system (IDS/IPS) provides real-time threat detection and prevention to ensure any potential emerging threats are resolved before they can cause damage. A virtual management console provides the SOC with the overarching health monitoring for all IDS/IPS deployments and is API-integrated with both the SOC’s SIEM and i3 case management system to deliver a comprehensive defensive system.
People
Our experienced security team support all IDS/IPS deployments providing 24x7x365 real-time threat monitoring and incident response. Engineers and consultants configure IPS rules to detect inbound exploitation attempts of any perimeter-facing assets while tracking and nullifying any indicators of call-back to external command and control servers. Further, a dedicated Service Delivery Manager is on hand to manage service obligations and enhancements.
Process
Real-time threat monitoring and incident response underpins IDS/IPS to ensure round the clock protection, while regular analysis and review ensures ongoing updates to signatures and rules. Threat intelligence findings are used to inform optimisation and the creation of new custom rules and blacklists. Detailed threat intelligence is also used to add further evidential data into the process while informing monthly Key Risk Indicator reports and ‘metrics that matter’.
Technology
With over 300 log events per second, LogSecure SIEM delivers a correlated view of security risks across everything running on your network and in the cloud. An extensive Global Threat Intelligence Network (GTIN) and I3 Security Incident Management Portal identify potential compromise and provide real-time security alerts to enhance detection capability and expedite 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 any 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 provide guidance to reinforce protections 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 and threat intelligence summaries. Should an incident arise, we’ll work with your internal team and relevant 3rd parties to action quick and effective resolutions.

Tony 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). The SOC also investigated the IPS alarms to identify any call backs to command and control servers.
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.
