AT&T Cybersecurity has announced its AT&T USM Anywhere platform will now offer on-demand advisory service for new and existing customers to tackle threat detection and response faster.
The company recognises that security teams are often overwhelmed and understaffed. Therefore, the ability to confidently respond to threats is limited by the maturity of their cybersecurity technologies to react quickly to alerts. Also, a lack of resources means security teams may not have the right skills to address the increasing complexity of protecting the network.
To alleviate this strain, customers can consult with the AT&T USM Anywhere Advisors – cybersecurity experts that guide customers on threat detection and response to complement in-house cybersecurity skills. The instant reactive support will help with day-to-day operations and streamline incident response efforts.
“Effective threat detection and response can be challenging for organisations as the cyber threat landscape continues to grow and evolve. To provide a highly secure environment, teams of people with security expertise are needed,” explained Rupesh Chokshi, VP of AT&T Cybersecurity.”Through our new support service and integrations, we are committed to helping AT&T USM Anywhere Platform customers to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their security operations by staying ahead of today’s evolving threat landscape and accelerating their response to security incidents.”
