Avit was the first Cisco partner in the Benelux to achieve the XDR specialization and now offers this advanced security solution as a Managed Service. This is an important milestone for Avit and a major step forward in strengthening their customers' cybersecurity.
Extended Detection and Response
Cisco's XDR (Extended Detection and Response) specialization focuses on enhancing security architecture through an integrated approach to threat detection and response. This specialization provides a holistic view of security threats by correlating data from various security products and solutions. This enables organizations to more effectively detect, investigate and respond to advanced attacks. Cisco's XDR solution combines network, endpoint, cloud and application security, creating a comprehensive and centralized view that helps identify and neutralize threats faster.
Clear dashboard for effective threat response
In recent years, many companies have invested in various security solutions to prevent attacks. However, these solutions often generate notifications without providing a clear overview of the connection between different systems and attacks. This makes it difficult to respond to threats quickly and effectively.
With the XDR platform, companies can link their various security solutions and create a clear dashboard. This provides insight into what is happening, where it is happening, and how different events are connected. This allows patterns and correlations of attacks to be detected more quickly, facilitating problem management and prevention in the future. XDR's open system means it can work with all kinds of brands and products, not just Cisco's.
XDR as a managed service
Avit is now the first Cisco Gold partner in the Benelux to achieve this specialization and also the first partner to offer this as a managed service. The certificate confirms that Avit 's experts have attended and successfully completed the required training courses. Avit now has a number of experts with the right knowledge to support customers in implementing and managing XDR.
As the first partner to offer XDR as a managed service, Avit offers customers the ability to have their security managed 24/7. This means organizations are continuously protected and immediate action is taken when needed. The service is offered with a fixed price, based on an organization's number of employees, regardless of the number of incoming alerts.
Getting ready for NIS2
In addition, XDR is preparing organizations for the upcoming NIS2 legislation. This European regulation requires organizations to demonstrate not only how they are secured and what attacks have occurred, but also what measures they have taken to prevent and follow up on these attacks. By implementing XDR, organizations take an important step toward compliance with NIS2 and are better prepared for future security requirements.
With the introduction of this managed service Avit highlights their commitment to delivering advanced and effective security solutions. This enables their customers to focus on their core business while ensuring robust and proactive security against the increasingly complex threats in today's cyber landscape.
