Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) Benefits

A Managed Security Service Provider
Keeps your data safe
And your workload lighter.

An MSSP can protect your business
From zero day attacks
With speed and litheness.

We wrote this Suess-like rhyme
To let you know just why
You should cover your backsides and insides and outsides
With managed security from RAVENii.

A Managed Security Service Provider like RAVENii offers a lot of benefits for businesses of all sizes. The MSSP handles all of the network security functions that are too expensive to implement on your own. This means your organization doesn’t need any additional hardware or staff.

Cybersecurity hardware and tools that are available directly from suppliers do not provide you with expert advice about network security like an MSSP will. Access to the human resources of knowledge and skills without hiring additional employees is what gives an MSSP the advantage.

It is a huge misconception that hiring a Managed Security Service Provider is more costly than other options. In fact, they usually save clients a lot of money in several ways:

  • The cost resulting from a cybersecurity incident is reduced.
  • The cost of hiring and training in-house security/IT staff is reduced, if not eliminated entirely.
  • Constant monitoring and protection prevent expensive incidents.
  • There is no massive initial investment.
  • Costs are relatively consistent and easy to budget for.

In-house security and IT staff rarely have the time or resources to stay educated on all of the latest in cybersecurity like advanced threat prevention, phishing, and endpoint protection. Immediate and continuous access to and the protection of multiple top experts in the field is what makes an MSSP so valuable.

Running continuous scans on your environment to identify anomalies in your normal operations is incredibly important when it comes to preventing a zero day attack. A Managed Security Service Provider does this, allowing it to detect and reduce vulnerabilities structurally. It predicts threats proactively and responds quickly and effectively, greatly reducing the odds of a successful cyberattack.

An MSSP can scale services and adapt the necessary infrastructure to perfectly fit the needs of your organization. This means that if something comes up requiring extra capacity temporarily, or if you need to cut back, resources can easily and quickly be adapted.

A reliable MSSP will offer a Service Level Agreement (SLA) in addition to 24/7/365 support. The SLA provides guidelines for customers regarding incident response times. Perhaps most importantly for your business, an SLA offers guarantees in the event of a network security event. This shifts potential risks associated with cyber threats away from your organization to the MSSP.
