Trust the Security experts at Flagship to help you build and maintain a Security Program that keeps today’s threat landscape in mind.

Enterprises need to take proactive steps to defend themselves against malicious attacks. A successful security program demands sophisticated, up-to-the-minute intelligence and deep insight into the current threat landscape. It also requires a strategic approach to managing the cost and complexity of the security technologies needed for security event and log management, vulnerability scanning, email security and other activities.

Based on our conversations with clients, partners, and fellow security experts, business leaders are struggling to keep up with the growing threat landscape and their ability to respond effectively. Organizations that try to manage their own information security often lack the in-house resources required to adequately protect online systems around the clock. By outsourcing security operations to Flagship, organizations can take advantage of expert skills, tools and processes without making a large investment in technology and resources.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between managed security services and cyber security services?
Managed security services (MSS) cover a wide range of security domains, including physical and digital security, and aim to ensure overall security and integrity of an organization’s IT environment. Cybersecurity services specifically focus on protecting digital assets, networks, and information systems from cyber threats. MSS has a broader scope, while cybersecurity services concentrate on digital threats.

MSS covers a wide range of security domains, including physical security, network security, endpoint security, data protection, compliance, and more. MSS providers typically offer a holistic approach to security management, providing services such as firewall management, intrusion detection and prevention, vulnerability assessments, security information and event management (SIEM), threat intelligence, incident response, and ongoing security monitoring.

What are managed cyber security services?
Managed cybersecurity services refer to the outsourcing of cybersecurity functions and tasks to a third-party service provider. These services are designed to protect an organization’s digital assets, networks, and information systems from cyber threats. Managed cybersecurity service providers offer a range of specialized services, including:

  • Threat Monitoring and Detection: Continuous monitoring of networks, systems, and applications to identify and respond to potential cyber threats in real-time.
    Incident Response: Developing and implementing incident response plans, as well as providing rapid response and remediation services in the event of a security incident or breach.
  • Vulnerability Management: Conducting regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate security weaknesses and vulnerabilities in an organization’s infrastructure.
  • Security Operations Center (SOC) Services: Operating a dedicated SOC that oversees security operations, monitors security events, investigates incidents, and provides 24/7 threat intelligence and response.
  • Endpoint Protection: Implementing and managing endpoint security solutions, such as antivirus software, host-based firewalls, and intrusion detection/prevention systems.
  • Security Information and Event Management (SIEM): Deploying and managing SIEM platforms to collect, analyze, and correlate security event logs for proactive threat detection and response.
  • Security Awareness Training: Conducting training programs to educate employees about cybersecurity best practices and raise awareness about potential threats, phishing attacks, and social engineering tactics.
  • Compliance and Risk Management: Assisting with regulatory compliance requirements, such as GDPR or HIPAA, and helping organizations manage cybersecurity risks effectively.
Why are cybersecurity services important for your business?
Cybersecurity services are crucial for businesses due to the following reasons:

  • Protection against Cyber Threats: Cyber threats, such as data breaches, malware, ransomware, phishing attacks, and hacking attempts, are constantly evolving and becoming more sophisticated. Cybersecurity services help protect your business against security breaches.
  • Compliance with Regulations: Many industries have specific regulatory requirements for data protection and cybersecurity, such as GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) or HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act).
  • Maintaining Business Reputation and Trust: A cybersecurity incident can have a severe impact on a business’s reputation and erode customer trust. Demonstrating a commitment to cybersecurity by implementing robust security measures and engaging cybersecurity services helps reassure customers, partners, and stakeholders that their information and transactions are protected, thereby enhancing your business’s reputation.
  • Minimizing Downtime and Financial Losses: Cyber attacks can lead to significant disruptions in business operations, resulting in downtime, loss of productivity, and financial losses. Investing in cybersecurity services can help detect and mitigate threats early, reducing the likelihood of business interruptions.
  • Proactive Cyber Risk Management: Cybersecurity services employ proactive risk management strategies by conducting vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and security audits. Identifying and addressing security weaknesses and vulnerabilities in advance helps mitigate the risk of successful cyberattacks, providing a proactive approach to protecting your business.
  • Cybersecurity Insurance: Flagship Solutions Group can play a vital role in bridging the gap between the cybersecurity requirements mandated by insurance policies and the existing security measures implemented by an organization. Our team of experts can assess the organization’s current security posture, identify any gaps or deficiencies, and work to implement the necessary measures to meet the insurance policy requirements.
What's the difference between an MSSP and MSP?
The key difference between a managed security service provider (MSSP) and an managed service provider (MSP) is their primary area of focus. An MSSP specializes in delivering managed security services, focusing on cybersecurity and protecting against digital threats. On the other hand, an MSP offers a broader range of managed services that encompass the overall management and support of an organization’s IT infrastructure and systems.
