It’s easy to feel overwhelmed as part of a security team. Every day, analysts have to stare down the perils hidden at the center of the SOC: too much noise, too many missed threats, and too much manual remediation.    
 
It’s time to integrate automation and machine learning into every step of your security voyage. 
 
We’re presenting a live, thrill-packed webinar with our partner, Palo Alto Networks, to help you do just that. Join us Thursday, December 10, at 11 a.m. for a 45-minute Journey to the Center of the SOC. We will walk through Palo Alto’s XSOAR, and you will learn how to do the following: 
•	Overcome today’s SOC challenges caused by siloed tools, limited analytics, and manual investigations. 
•	Eliminate alert fatigue by grouping related alerts into incidents, reducing disparate alerts by 98%. 
•	Automate manual tasks with flexible orchestration to consolidate alerts and reduce incident response time. 

We’ll see you virtually soon!

Journey to the Center of the SOC

After a large e-commerce service provider found malware in an email sent to customers, their IT team dove deep into their tech infrastructure. They soon discovered that their on-premise workstations had been infiltrated with the malware Trickbot, classifying this breach as too big to handle with their minimal IT staff. The company called upon Accudata's security and managed services teams to help stop the attack and quickly begin remediation with low downtime that would negatively affect business operations.

Join Chief Technology Officer Brian DiPaolo and Managed Services Practice Manager Mark Holdsworth on Tuesday, December 8th at 11:00am as they detail the challenges of identifying and eliminating an active attacker in order to bring the business back online.

Case Study: Real-World Breach Response

In this episode of ASI in 5, Sohil speaks with Senior Risk & Compliance Consultant Tim Paschal. Tim demonstrates how an attacker could compromise a Windows domain account via a multifunction printer Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) pass-back attack.

Improving Customer Engagement Through Cloud Contact Center

Managed Detection and Response (MDR) providers offer a wide range of services. Some may be right for your business, but some may not. How do you choose the right MDR provider? 

Accudata’s Solution Architect team provides design and architecture services for many different solutions, from data center migrations to deploying contact centers. One solution we’ve seen across the board that’s been attractive to our customers is MDR. A few weeks ago, we reviewed what is compelling in this space. In this webinar, we’ll showcase one of our favorites, Arctic Wolf.

Join Accudata’s Cybersecurity Practice Manager Charles Johnson and Managed Services Practice Manager Mark Holdsworth as they sit down and talk with Arctic Wolf CTO Sam McLane on Thursday, September 24, at noon.

If your business is moving to the cloud and you have users accessing data from different locations, securely connecting your users should be top of mind. 

In this webinar, Accudata Solutions Architects Alejandro Rodriguez and Brian Ingram come together to cover the following: 
  
•What is SD-WAN?
•What is Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)?
•How is securing SD-WAN possible?
•How is the marketing trending?
 
With the combined power of SD-WAN and SASE, you can not only improve your environment’s operations but also the user experience.

Automating and Securing your WAN

Detection and response services are gaining popularity as managed services and managed security services offerings change to adapt to the latest trends. But, what exactly are managed detection and response services? Should you have both endpoint and network detection and response? And, how is managed detection and response different from managed security services? What if you have a managed services provider? Do they help with security?

Help us cross-examine our architects and consultants, who answer these and more questions every day. Join us for our upcoming webinar on Tuesday, August 4 at 11 a.m. when we’ll ditch the sales pitch and answer your questions LIVE as we put our cybersecurity expert Charles Johnson on the stand!

Mass data fragmentation is an unfortunate reality for enterprises with legacy backup solutions. Point products for media servers, master servers, target storage, and bolt-on cloud gateways spread data far and wide. Not to mention, most enterprises have multiple backup products creating silos and making data less secure and more difficult to access.
Cisco and Cohesity have partnered to solve this problem with a simplified backup and data management solution in a single, unified architecture.
Join us Thursday, July 23, at 11 a.m., where experts from Cisco, Cohesity, and Accudata will walk through the modernized backup and recovery solution that unlocks the value of your backup data while keeping it more secure.

Decentralizing the Data Center

The challenges of securing, managing, and deploying user workstations are a constant struggle for most IT departments. Add in the recent and ever-growing need to enable remote workers, and IT departments spend most of their time solving problems rather than helping to grow the business. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) can help save companies valuable time and resources, freeing IT to focus on more strategic projects. 

Join Accudata Solutions Architects Michael Stringer and Jason Asbell June 16 at 11 a.m. as they explore the technical aspects of a VDI solution using Citrix and Microsoft in this 30-minute live webinar.

Business leaders are asking themselves “What should we be focusing on right now?” and “How quickly can we pivot to handle this current situation safely and efficiently?”
 
Managing and maintaining an IT service desk correctly requires a lot of time, effort, and money. However, many organizations have found that leveraging an outside team of IT professionals may be more beneficial than employing an in-house staff. In this 20-minute webinar on April 30, Accudata Systems’ managed services practice manager, Mark Holdsworth, breaks down current challenges that our customers are facing with their service desks, including: 
 
• Short- and long-term staffing
• Efficiency to your business objectives
• Unexpected operational costs

Organizations everywhere have had to shift to remote work rapidly. These changes have created new vectors for cybersecurity risk. Organizations need a way to enable digital business transformation and innovation securely. Our partner, Palo Alto Networks, believes that this requires a fundamentally different approach: both security and networking must be delivered in the cloud.

Accudata’s Cybersecurity Practice Manager, Charles Johnson, and Palo Alto Networks' Dave Loya, will talk about best practices for securing your cloud initiatives with Prisma Access, a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) platform, by bringing together industry-leading security and SD-WAN capabilities in the cloud.

Ransomware attacks increased significantly in 2020 as the world grappled with the realities of COVID-19. While many enterprises were prepared for attacks on the data center or public cloud, working from home presented a new challenge. Endpoint detection and response (EDR) capabilities were again front and center. But with economic challenges abound, businesses simply cannot afford to spend money wastefully. These circumstances can leave you asking yourself questions such as: 

•	What is the best option for the dollar spent?  
•	What capabilities do I need?  
•	Can I deploy and operate EDR without needing a team of cybersecurity professionals?  

Join us Thursday, October 22, at 11 a.m., when Accudata and Fortinet experts come together to answer these questions and more. And, they will introduce Fortinet’s new solution, FortiEDR. Walk away knowing you're protected.
