SIEM is a major upgrade over multiple security products that require IT security staff to view numerous dashboards to get comprehensive visibility. A SIEM can:

• Alleviate alert fatigue by curbing false positives and aggregating disparate data sources

• Implement a unified dashboard for visibility across the enterprise

• Reduce risks from denial-of-service attacks, brute-force attacks, and data breaches

• Simplify regulatory compliance to help you avoid exorbitant fines for violations

Security information and event management (SIEM) is an approach to security management that combines SIM (security information management) and SEM (security event management) functions into one security management system. The underlying principles of every SIEM system is to aggregate relevant data from multiple sources, identify deviations from the norm and take appropriate action. For example, when a potential issue is detected, a SIEM system might log additional information, generate an alert and instruct other security controls to stop an activity's progress.

A vulnerability assessment provides an organization with information on the security weaknesses in its environment. It also provides direction on how to assess the risks associated with those weaknesses. This process offers the organization a better understanding of its assets, security flaws and overall risk, reducing the likelihood that a cybercriminal will breach its systems and catch the business off guard.

A vulnerability assessment is the process of defining, identifying, classifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities in computer systems, applications and network infrastructures. Vulnerability assessments also provide the organization doing the assessment with the necessary knowledge, awareness and risk backgrounds to understand and react to the threats to its environment.

stc SOC-as-a-service is based on an initial setup phase, which includes remote access connection setup, providing stc security analyst's secured access, directly to the customer's systems, without exposing the organization's database.

A SIEM, even though it is oriented toward automation, still requires a human analyst to monitor its views and insights. A security engineer or developer must configure and tune its initial implementation. This equates to expensive man-hours. For an organization that is held to a standard of compliance, it can require multiple full-time employees to cover 24/7 shifts.

SOC-as-a-service can provide the manpower at a fraction of the cost, while the organization retains ownership of the implementation and the data it generates.

Every organization must be connected to the Internet if it is to compete successfully in the business world of today. There must be no doubt whatsoever that this gives organizations of every type significant challenges as the virus writers and hackers of yesterday are forever finding new methods of mounting very effective Internet-borne attacks. The threat from outside the organization is only part of the problem. Information assets are also under threat from within and some say as much as 75% of the problem is as a direct result of attacks mounted by so-called trusted employees.

Through a consultative approach, the stc BAH team provides an assessment of cyber and compliance risks, maturity of control capabilities and a roadmap to improving security posture in a short time frame.

Collaboratively, the scope of a penetration test should always be customized to suit the unique nature of the business.

Goals of a penetration test vary greatly based on the scope of review. The goal of a penetration test is to validate the effectiveness of security controls designed to protect the system or assets being protected.

A Penetration Test should always document the goals of the project. Penetration Test reports and deliverables outline the expectations, scope, requirements, resources, and results.

Both penetration tests and automated vulnerability scans are useful tools for managing vulnerabilities. While these are different testing methods, they are complementary, and both should be performed.

A vulnerability scan is an automated, low-cost method for testing common network and server vulnerabilities. This is sometimes referred to as an automated pen test. Many automated tools are available, and most are easily configured by the end user to scan for published vulnerabilities on a scheduled basis.

A penetration test focuses on the environment, as a whole. In many ways, it picks up where the scanners leave off to provide a comprehensive analysis of the overall security posture. While scripts and tools are leveraged by a penetration tester, their use is largely limited to reconnaissance activities. The bulk of a penetration test is manual by nature. A penetration test identifies vulnerabilities scanners cannot, such as wireless flaws, web application vulnerabilities, and vulnerabilities not yet published. Further, pen testing includes attempts to safely exploit vulnerabilities, escalate privileges, and ultimately demonstrate how an attacker could gain access to sensitive information assets.

A penetration test, also known as a “pen test,” is a method for evaluating the effectiveness of an organization’s security controls. Testing is performed under controlled conditions, simulating scenarios representative of what a real attacker would attempt. When gaps are identified in a security control, a penetration test goes beyond basic vulnerability scanning to determine how an attacker would escalate access to sensitive information assets, confidential information, personally identifiable information (PII), financial data, intellectual property or any other sensitive information. Penetration testing utilizes pen test tools and techniques, guided by a disciplined and repeatable methodology, resulting in a report containing detailed findings and recommendations that allow an organization to implement counter measures and improve the security posture of the environment. These improvements ultimately reduce the likelihood an attacker could gain access.

Our EPSaaS platform is more than just a traditional antivirus. It adds an extra layer of security for overall network protection by monitoring a range of factors to make sure you can keep pushing boundaries without interruption. We monitor behavior, web filtering, application firewall and Host Quarantine Enforcement.

While Endpoint Security (EDR+AV) sounds like the superior defense, that comes at a cost — complexity. Endpoint Security (EDR+AV) solutions generate vast quantities of data which must be shipped off the endpoint. And if your organization is of any significant size, the data storage requirements can be overwhelming.

Endpoint Security (EDR+AV) platforms are also configuration heavy. While endpoint protection is one install and a signature update from the vendor, EDR can involve configuration to ship log files to a central store for analysis. If that analysis happens in the cloud, there can be some delays in effectiveness.

Finally, Endpoint Security (EDR+AV) is great at determining threat detection with a high degree of confidence, but those findings are useless without a human analyst to verify them and define a course of action in response. If the data is huge and "noisy," the chances of quick response are low.

With One Endpoint Agent that Tightly Integrates Malware Prevention, Detection and Remediation:

With this service, our skilled security analysts can quickly pivot from AV alerts into the endpoint process tree with event details that provide context into the source of malware – leveraging the value of combined prevention and detection in one agent. Malware detection and remediation is integrated tightly so analysts can seamlessly follow the path of the malware back to its origin whenever malware is detected and remediated.

Our Platform uses several engines to detect and stop malware, including antivirus (AV) with behavioral, heuristic and signature defenses, including boot sector protection and a gl

obal quarantine of detected malware for analysis; process behavior blocking – which runs independently of your choice of AV – using hashes or YARA rules to extend prevention defenses; and process blocking using threat intelligence feeds as a source of hashes to block.

An endpoint protection platform is a vital part of enterprise cybersecurity for a number of reasons. First of all, in today’s business world, data is often the most valuable asset a company has—and to lose that data, or access to that data, could put the entire business at risk of insolvency. Businesses have also had to contend with not only a growing number of endpoints, but also a rise in the number of types of endpoints. These factors make enterprise endpoint security more difficult on their own, but they’re compounded by remote work and BYOD policies—which make perimeter security increasingly insufficient and create vulnerabilities. The threat landscape is becoming more complicated, too: Hackers are always coming up with new ways to gain access, steal information or manipulate employees into giving out sensitive information. Add in the opportunity cost of reallocating resources from business goals to addressing threats, the reputational cost of a large-scale breach, and the actual financial cost of compliance violations, and it’s easy to see why endpoint protection platforms have become regarded as must-haves in terms of securing modern enterprises.

Endpoint security is the practice of securing endpoints or entry points of end-user devices such as desktops, laptops, and mobile devices from being exploited by malicious actors and campaigns. Endpoint security systems protect these endpoints on a network or in the cloud from cybersecurity threats. Endpoint security has evolved from traditional antivirus software to providing comprehensive protection from sophisticated malware and evolving zero-day threats.

Organizations of all sizes are at risk from nation-states, hacktivists, organized crime, and malicious and accidental insider threats. Endpoint security is often seen as cybersecurity's frontline and represents one of the first places organizations look to secure their enterprise networks.

Security frameworks have several components that guide companies when they develop their IT security policies and procedures. While security standards offer insight into recommended controls and guidelines go over the security measures that are ideally put in place on a network and are mandatory for compliance in some cases, a framework has security best practices that companies should follow to get the best results for implementing a successful program.

The security framework's primary goal is reducing the risk that common cybersecurity threats will impact the organization. Here are some of what I feel are the most influential security frameworks of all time.

• HIPAA: Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

• PCI DSS: Payment Card Industry's Data Security Standard

• NIST SP 800-53: National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication 800-53

• ISO 27000 Series

• PDPL (Personal Data Protection Law): The PDPL is the main data protection regulation in Bahrain

An eSIM (Embedded SIM) is the latest technology in SIM cards where the SIM module is embedded in the mobile device. Traditional SIM cards can easily be swapped out of a phone, whereas an eSIM cannot be removed.

In the event of burglary or theft, the insurance company will replace the device with the same model, and you can only submit one request for the duration of the policy’s validity. The policy expires after two repairs or one replacement.

The monthly cost depends on whether you have a simple or high-tech business device insurance package. In the event that the device is exposed to accidental damage, it shall be repaired or replaced, as the coverage includes two repairs and one replacement, or a repair process followed by one replacement.

Stc's device protection program provides two types of coverage:

• Basic coverage for damages to the device’s screen only - it covers damages that may occur to the phone with anyone at all times. The basic coverage includes damage to the screen such as breakage, in addition to any other damages caused by that.

• Complete device insurance coverage, including burglary and theft insurance. With comprehensive coverage, your devices are insured against all damages, as well as anti-burglary (including intimidation) or theft (with forced entry).

The device insurance package seeks to cover your company's specific needs while sticking to your budget. Therefore, we offer you low monthly installments instead of a one-time upfront fee. We make sure that the carrying costs are compatible with the business devices used in the company. Simple technology devices pay only a low carrying cost. We also offer two types of insurance policies to suit your different needs.
