What Is a Managed Security Service?

A managed security service encompasses a variety of functions that are performed by a cybersecurity firm. These services are usually offered on a monthly basis. It enables businesses to outsource their security services instead of hiring full-time staff and sustaining their own in-house team.

The service can include 24-hour monitoring and management of firewalls as well as intrusion detection systems patches management, vulnerability scanning, and incident response as well as digital forensics. It could also include the virtual private network (VPN) and other security devices to safeguard devices and data. Many MSSPs are value-added resellers that specialize in managed security, or offer it as an additional feature of their existing IT services. Other MSSPs offer security capabilities to small and mid-sized companies (SMBs) via an indirect sales model.

It is important to choose the right managed service as it can reduce the risk that an organization is attacked, improve its security performance, and guarantee compliance. When choosing a partner, ensure that the company is proactive in their approach to security and provides support throughout the day.

UBA, or user behavior analytics, is an example of a software that works. This technique is used to establish an baseline of the normal behavior in the network, and evaluates new actions against that baseline to spot anomalies.

The most effective MSSPs are those who learn and provide visibility into the environment to deliver tailored guidance to reduce the chances of attackers succeeding, react quickly and efficiently whenever an incident occurs and enhance the security position. This means analyzing and understanding information and providing alerts to stop threats, minimize risks, and optimize and refine a security program for the long-term.
