Managed Security Services: what are and why you can’t do without them
Managed Security Services are one of the most effective emerging tools to combat cyber threats in a context, today, where cyber dangers increase in number and danger.
According to the report “Clusit 2023”, in Italy one of the most affected sectors is that of Manufacturing, with an increase ranging from 2% in 2018 to 5% in 2022. There are only 3 points but in essence it has more than doubled: in this case it is permissible to assume that it may depend on the increasing diffusion of IoT in manufacturing and the tendency towards the interconnection of industrial systems.
This shows how companies, especially the industrial sector made up of SMEs, must necessarily take action and rely on Managed Services to protect the IT infrastructure proactively 24/7 and thus ensure business continuity.
What are Managed Security Services?
The term Managed Security Services identifies all the offer of services and technologies that provides a Managed Service Provider (MSP) to a company, to monitor, detect and respond promptly to any type of cyber threat.
Thanks to the outsourced management mode, Managed Security Services represent the key that allows your company to raise the security posture while remaining focused on your core business.
