We help protect organisations from today’s most pervasive cybersecurity threats. With us on your team, you’ll rest easy knowing your mission-critical assets are safe from threat actors.

Threat actors waste no time when it comes to inflicting damage, as recent Secureworks research revealed. In just two years, the average ransomware dwell time has dropped from 5.5 days to just short of 24 hours. That’s why monitoring your environment is more important now than ever – and why it’s becoming increasingly critical to cover all the bases. 

In this episode, we talk to Bud Ellis, a Secureworks expert in the cybersecurity market. Join us to discuss current challenges – and how to address them – from an expanding attack surface to the growing cyber skills gap. You’ll hear the difference holistic monitoring can make when it comes to protecting your business and how the right MDR solution is equipped to plug every gap.

What you’ll learn:
• Why monitoring your environment is more important than ever
• The evolving threat landscape and growing skills gap
• Limitations of endpoint detection and response
• Benefits of holistic MDR solutions
• Importance of partnership and access to the right expertise
