What is a CERT good for?

A CERT is responsible for identifying, analyzing, and mitigating cyber threats and vulnerabilities, as well as providing recommendations to prevent future incidents.

A CERT team provides a coordinated and efficient way to respond to cyber incidents, which helps minimize damage and disruption. An authorized CERT has the expertise and specialized resources to quickly address and deal with cyber incidents. CERTs also collaborate with similar entities, public or private, which contributes to the fluency of information exchange in the event of a cyber incident.

Creating and maintaining an internal cybersecurity team and operations center is complex and expensive, and frequently exceeds the available resources of organizations. The main benefits of an outsourced CERT are: cyber risk management, early detection of attempted attacks before significant damage is done, rapid response to incidents, 24/7 continuous coverage, compliance with security regulations and cost efficiency.

How does STI CERT® work?

STI CERT monitors security events, provides incident response and security analysis to manage risk and align an organization's security with today's threat reality.

In order for the services to be effective, Safetech's CERT experts need visibility into the security posture of the client's IT system, both at the network and endpoint level, through the use of specific cyber security tools such as SIEM (Security Information and Event Management), NDR (Network Detection and Response), EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response), NGFW (Next-Generation Firewall), XDR (Extended Detection and Response), PAM (Privileged Access Management), etc.

Depending on their existence, we adjust the procedure for contracting and activating the services provided by Safetech. Also, the company has the resources, expertise, experience as an IT integrator and the necessary partnerships to deliver, operate and maintain the above-mentioned solutions for the customers who need them.
