Harish Chib, Vice President, Middle East and Africa, Sophos, said: \u201cThis year, our GITEX theme is \u2018Cybersecurity-as-a-Service\u2019 which we believe is the future of cybersecurity. Organisations need services to help them defeating cyberthreats, which have increased exponentially in the last couple of years, both in volume and sophistication \u2013 to the point where it is difficult for businesses to handle alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAttackers are constantly changing their tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) to launch cyberattacks like ransomware. To make matters worse, the ransomware business model is continuously shifting and expanding, with Initial Access Brokers (IABs) selling network access to any potential ransomware attacker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEven \u2018unskilled hackers\u2019 can get into the ransomware business \u2013 by buying the network access, encryption code and other bespoke pieces needed to launch the attack. Compounding the issue is the current cybersecurity skills gap.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Specifically, at GITEX, Sophos is highlighting its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The combination of Sophos\u2019 experts and tools provided as-a-service can help organisations of all sizes to deal with any cyber issues 24×7 365 days of the year. It also helps organisations to proactively hunt for threats, scope their severity, initiate action and remediate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
