ESET a 3 decade old cybersecurity company known for its endpoint security, enterprise security platforms and global threat intelligence is recently in the news for its new announcement which seems to shift the way people look at handling cybersecurity issues .
It has launches its AI powered Managed detection and response service across APAC, available to both SMBs and enterprises.
The unique talking point is the promise of 6 min Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) which is amongst the fastest in the industry and reframes the way industry has been seeing this service so far – where speed is becoming the new cybersecurity currency.
Traditional Cysec was all about detection with avg breach detection time around 25 mins this 6 min promise now resets industrywide expectations by making quick containment very important.
The rationale is clear as the longer it takes to detect threat and the reasons behind it the higher are the risk associated with Data loss risk – Operational disruption – Financial damage.
ESET’s MDR combines AI driver threat detection combines with human led hunting and global threat intelligence.
For the APAC which faces largest cybersecurity talent gaps with no dedicated teams in most companies and high attack incidences.
