THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING


Ron Hruby, VP CybersecurityBy leveraging Vertek’s MTI service, partners and customers can instantly add world-class security engineers, processes, and tools for comprehensive IT security protection. Vertek continuously collects, aggregates, and monitors security data across the network, comparing data to known cyber threats and alerting IT staff to security gaps, vulnerabilities and network infiltrations.
Along with the benefits of a SIEM, Vertek contributes a massive number of Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) to the Open Threat Exchange (OTX) daily, providing them a competitive advantage to detect and respond to new and emerging threats. When a threat or an alarm is detected, Vertek responds with recommended remediation guidance to mitigate the risk. “We offer custom threat feeds, perform vulnerability scanning and conduct monthly security reviews where we digest security reports and statistics that we use to help customers align, track and prioritize security concerns, as well as meet compliance initiatives.” says Hruby.![]()
We eliminate the noise and help you prioritize the threats that put your business at risk
Today, Vertek leverages AT&T Cybersecurity’s AlienVault® Unified Security Management® (USM) platform to deliver MTI, which combines powerful SIEM and log management capabilities with other essential security tools—including asset discovery, vulnerability scanning and intrusion detectionto give centralized security monitoring of networks and endpoints across your cloud and on-premises environments–all from a single pane of glass.
An interesting case study is that of an MSP that wanted to protect not only themselves but also the data and assets of its customers. They initially approached Vertek to collaborate on threat identification and response scenariossuch as unauthorized attempts to gain access to customer information or attempts to exfiltrate data out of one of their many datacenters. The MSP was also interested in gaining an independent view relative to their overall security posture. By Vertek fulfilling all these requirements, not only was the MSP able to respond to its customers’ inquiries regarding its own security posture, but they were also able to go to market with a custom MDR (Managed Detection Response) solution to offer powerful security services to their customers.
As a recognized partner of AT&T Cybersecurity and a Master AlienVault provider, Vertek is moving ahead to expand its business with strategic partnerships and new customers. From the product perspective, Vertek is always evaluating other security products to add to their SOCaaS portfolio to solve additional security use cases and fill niche markets.
