MANAGED SECURITY FOR EDUCATION

PROFESSIONAL, PROACTIVE MANAGED CYBERSECURITY

Infosec Partners are perhaps one of only a few managed security service providers to deliver full-spectrum security solutions, whilst supporting any-vendor any-device, in the education sector. In our assurance and major incident remediation work we are frequently called upon to integrate security technologies from different vendors. We often encounter new clients that have a huge range of technologies, some good and some not so good, and it is common to see clients with a mix of many different ‘best of breed’ vendors all loosely knitted together with many gaps and overlaps. This is often the result of a patchwork approach to cybersecurity and additions of new security devices added over time and as each new need is discovered.

Optimise your cybersecurity investment

From a budgetary perspective most organisations can’t just rip-out and replace, but having your entire security architecture in-tune is critical for security. Any gaps in your defences are likely to result in a breach with the potential to be catastrophic to your organisation. Problems arise when security devices are added without an holistic full-spectrum security strategy – when technology is installed quickly without any real optimisation or integration with other security solutions.

Unfortunately with new clients we frequently see many security functions either badly implemented or not turned on. In many cases it makes sense to fix and optimise and with our Any Device Secured capability, we’ll make sure that the cybersecurity that you’ve invested in is optimised as long as it still fits your needs.

Enhance and extend your cybersecurity

Another option is to extend your existing security architecture by connecting to Infosec Partners’ FortiSecured Advanced Threat Protection. This provides you with the scalability to grow your security along with you needs and manage budget more effectively by reducing capex overhead.

Proactive Security with clear ROI

Our managed security clients frequently comment that they appreciate our quality of service, proactiveness and reporting. Whilst many other so-called MSSPs offer cheap service contracts, we have found most – even the bigger names – to either be unskilled in security (perhaps limited to firstline support for a specific product) or lacking in proactiveness and service delivery.

With special rates for Education, managed security by Infosec Partners will provide you proven peace of mind and you’ll quickly realise a strong return on your security investment.
