Managed Security Services
Security as a Service
Information security has become a specialisation and a highly sought-after skill set – it’s practically impossible for an in-house team to be expert in every aspect of cyber security and risk mitigation. Security as a Service is the answer.
MIST helps you assess security risks, strengthen controls and respond to incidents. Services are scoped to your environment and business requirements.
Services tailored to your organisation
MIST provides the following services, which can be tailored for each client.
Application control (whitelisting)
Application control is one of the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s (ACSC) Essential Eight mitigation strategies. MIST can help configure application control to reduce the risk of unauthorised software running.
Constant patching
Patching applications and operating systems are both Essential Eight strategies. Regular patching is critical but often overlooked – we plan and manage updates with your operational requirements in mind.
Email protection and backup
Email filtering and backup options selected to suit your environment, with retention and recovery requirements agreed during scoping.
Deny advanced persistent threats
Machine-learning software agents that learn what typical and atypical behaviour looks like on your network, catching signatureless malware that sits silently stealing computer resources or exfiltrating data.
Continuous vulnerability management
Ongoing scanning and matching of the software on your network against a database of tens of thousands of vulnerabilities, giving you early warning of possible attack vectors.
Security information and event management
Automated gathering of security events from end-user devices, servers, network devices, firewalls and intrusion prevention systems. Events are forwarded to a central console where our analysts diagnose and remediate security incidents.
Security training and testing
Software-driven testing of your staff’s resistance to clicking unknown links and attachments. We train staff on the risks, follow up with testing to score your team, and work with the highest-risk individuals to help them resist attack.
Network agents
Agents on your network examine data moving between internal IP addresses and externally, watching for suspicious behaviour flagged by machine-learning algorithms for further investigation.
DNS and web protection
DNS and web filtering can help block access to malicious destinations. We can discuss suitable products and configuration for your environment.
Monthly updates
Regular reports covering every aspect of the service you’ve structured with us. These updates are a two-way conversation to ensure your security platform matches your business activities.
Managed backups
Continual backup administration and testing so your vital data is available when it’s needed – with recovery options determined by the agreed retention policy.
Data leakage protection
Email was never intended to be the de facto file repository many firms use it as. We provide industry-leading software that controls access to files and what can be done with the data, via email and in-house.
User identity and access management
New and existing users are provisioned the access they need at the right time, and departing users are offboarded promptly to reduce the risk of unauthorised communication or information access.
