Tieto adds Finnish start-up CySec to Security Services ecosystem
Tieto's Security Services start-up is initiating collaboration with CySec Ice Wall Oy (CySec), a Finnish security start-up, to offer customers more visibility to their data in the event of data breaches. CySec is the latest addition to Tieto's world-wide security ecosystem, which enables Tieto to provide its customers with the best new technologies in an agile manner.
Tieto launched an internal Security Services start-up to help customers to combat modern cyber attacks in the increasingly complex IT security environment. Tieto Security Services is actively forming a global ecosystem of partners to bring the best new technologies and solutions to the fore for clients and has now announced a partnership with CySec – a Finnish start-up that delivers state of art solutions to support forensic cyber crime investigations.
CySec’s world-class product will be incorporated into the Tieto Security Wall service, providing customers with a better understanding of the past by recording network data and making it available to be studied. This is extremely important in cases where a new zero-day attack has been found and recordings of suspicious activities are vital to understanding the impact of the breach. Furthermore, the recordings will provide solid evidence of things that happened in the past, making it possible to prove what has taken place.
“Tieto’s Security Services have been developed to secure the digital operations of enterprises and public sector organizations. One of the key challenges for organisations in the security arena is not only to monitor current activities but also record and verify actual breaches. With this feature in Tieto Security Wall, any organisation can now record and store data,” says Markus Melin, Head of Security Services at Tieto.
The new feature will be added to the Tieto security service known as Tieto Security Wall, which offers Tieto’s customers unique real-time services that provide transparency and information, as well as a recording capability. As a result, customers will be able to monitor their digital security at any given time and also record activity to provide information to help manage security.
“Diagnosing something that has happened on a network months previously has been very expensive and cumbersome due to the procedures for storing evidence. Only a few super powers have had the capability to record all network data for weeks, months and years. With the ground-breaking solution that is incorporated into Tieto Security Wall, we can now offer visibility to any organisation in a way that ensure that legally solid evidence against any intruder is secured for forensic and court processes," says Juhani Kallio, CEO of CySec.
The Tieto Security Services start-up will actively team up with other market-leading solution providers to create an agile worldwide security ecosystem in order to provide the best service and reliability for the benefit of our customers. The Security Services start-up has previously announced collaboration with Dell.
