This Government-Linked Corporation is a national organization responsible for providing public services. They needed an effective, real-time security monitoring solution to safeguard sensitive national workforce data, which could be severely impacted by any breach.
Client Challenges
The client faced major challenges in securing their infrastructure:
1. Lack of Proactive Monitoring: With limited security monitoring in place, the client was unable to detect hidden threats that could compromise the sensitive data they manage.
2. Impact of Breach: Any breach in their server infrastructure could have devastating effects on the nation’s workforce data, requiring immediate attention to prevent any potential risks.
Our Solution
Simply Data Sdn Bhd implemented an integrated, 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) solution to address the client’s security needs. Here’s how we helped:
24/7 SOC Services
We provided round-the-clock SOC services, ensuring continuous monitoring of the client’s infrastructure. This helped us quickly identify and respond to threats, minimizing any potential risk to sensitive national data.
Proactive Threat Hunting
To uncover threats that were not detected by traditional security layers, our team carried out proactive threat hunting. We actively searched for hidden threats in the client’s network, identifying potential risks and taking action before they could escalate.
Incident Reporting & Response
Whenever a suspicious activity or potential breach was detected, we generated detailed incident reports and immediately responded to contain the threat. Our incident response team acted quickly to neutralize risks and provided the client with recovery steps.
