BT launches BT Assure Threat Intelligence
By VARINDIA - 2015-02-11
BT has announced the launch of BT Assure Threat Intelligence, a new service designed to help organizations anticipate and defend against cyber threats, protecting their assets, customers and employees. From DDoS attacks to hacking and data theft, cybercrime is growing and cybercriminals continue to become more sophisticated. In fact, according to a recent BT survey of IT decision-makers, more than half of respondents (59 per cent) said that DDoS attacks are becoming increasingly effective at subverting their IT security measures and 40 per cent are not convinced that their organization has a response plan to effectively counter DDoS attacks.
BT Assure Threat Intelligence has been created to provide organizations with round-the-clock global monitoring and assessment of cyber threats to help safeguard their electronic data and protect the interests of their shareholders and customers. It has been designed to minimize risk, enhance security and provide insight into future real and potential cyber threats so they have time to address any vulnerabilities and lower their risk profile. “We want to provide our customers with the peace of mind that comes from knowing what to look out for and how to create an effective defence against cyber threats. Timely and accurate cyber intelligence reporting is central to this,” said Mark Hughes, President, BT Security. BT Assure’s wide range of strategic partnerships with world-class organizations means it has an optimum intelligence gathering network. This includes nearly 2,000 security practitioners and professional service consultants worldwide. It is, therefore, also able to build a full picture of threats, analyzing data in 14 follow-the-sun security operations centres.See What’s Next in Tech With the Fast Forward Newsletter
