Calling in the Cavalry - When to consider using outside help for your IT Security program

Abstract

Do you feel like you’re struggling to grow your IT security program to where you want it to be? It may be time to consider help from the outside. Today there are a wide range of managed security services such as using a full fledged MSSP to using point solutions like managed SIEM, managed VM or MDR.

In this presentation we’ll cover when those options make sense as well as the benefits and challenges that come with them. We'll also cover how you can best structure your limited staff around such services to make the most use of them.
