The human knowledge stretches across an enormously wide spectrum, and yet we still can’t claim to know anything better than how to improve at a consistent pace. We say this because the stated reality has already fetched the world some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a rather unique member of the group. The reason why technology’s credentials are so anomalous is purposed around its skill-set, which was unprecedented enough to realize all the possibilities for us that we couldn’t have imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, a closer look should be able to reveal how the whole runner was also very much inspired by the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence and made it the ultimate centerpiece of every horizon. Now, having such a powerful tool run the show did expand our experience in many different directions, but even after reaching so far ahead, this prodigious concept called technology will somehow keep on delivering the right goods. The same has grown to become a lot more evident in recent times, and assuming one new GRC-themed development pans out just like we envision, it will only propel that trend towards greater heights over the near future and beyond.
Malwarebytes, a global leader in real-time cyber protection, has officially announced the launch of new offerings for its multi-tenant console called ThreatDown OneView. According to certain reports, the stated offerings will help Managed Service Providers (MSPs) streamline their cybersecurity efforts using a dedicated security advisor, advanced device control, a more comprehensive brand of reporting, and software for seamless patching. Talk about these offerings on a slightly deeper level, we begin the dedicated security advisor, who will analyze an organization’s cybersecurity before generating a health score. It won’t just allow you discover gaps in your defenses, but the feature will also bring to the fore actionable recommendations that can be implemented in a matter of few minutes. Given how it presents a precise score against your security posture, the stated advisor also makes it possible for the user to compare scores that were achieved prior to and after implementing the recommendations. Next up, we must get into Malwarebytes’ brand-new and advanced device control system, which comes decked up with an ability to automatically scan and quarantine any USB device connected to an endpoint. Complimenting the same is how it also empowers admins to block the device until the scan is completed, thus ensuring every device is scanned for potential threats or vulnerabilities. Like you can guess, the given automation angle also goes a long way when it comes to simplifying the process of defending your system against USB malware. Anyway, moving on to enhanced reporting, it has its utility rooted in offering a more streamlined reporting approach within OneView so to let admins quickly show ROI and value to their customers. Another detail worth a mention here is how the functionality even has the means to allow users to schedule individual reports directly from the OneView reports page. Presenting the service through a streamlined interface, this feature can very well guide you in figuring out what to include or not for a final report.
“ThreatDown has been a fantastic addition to Scinary’s security suite,” said Richard Martin, CEO of Scinary Cybersecurity. “With its streamlined interface and ease of integration into our Centurion MDR, ThreatDown has accelerated our growth and helped us take the complexity out of cybersecurity for overburdened IT teams. The beauty of ThreatDown solutions and services is that they have integrated seamlessly into our SOC team’s processes. We continue to hear from clients all the time about how ThreatDown’s ease of implementation, management and use help free up precious resources for time-strapped organizations.”
Rounding up the highlights is the close software for patching. The stated solution notably allows users to configure settings to force close software applications, even if they are running at that time. It also introduces a prospect for MSPs to initiate the closure of software applications on an end-users’ device within a specified timeframe before initiating updates. Such a piece of value proposition paves the way for the prompt installation of critical updates, and by doing so; it essentially eliminates the risk of having outdated and potentially vulnerable software on endpoints.
The development in question conceives a rather intriguing follow-up to the success Malwarebytes has already had with its ThreatDown OneView solution. You see, the company has reported year-over-year a 33% growth of its ThreatDown Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution, and 54% average growth of its ThreatDown Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service, quarter-over-quarter. Beyond that, Malwarebytes has also signed more than 40 new distributors this year, including Climb Channel Solutions, EBERTLANG, Nuvanix, Pax8 (US, EMEA and APAC), and sysob etc.
Founded in 2008, Malwarebytes has climbed up the ranks leveraging award-winning endpoint protection, privacy, and threat prevention solutions, solutions that are capable of coming in as the last resort to find and eradicate malware. Having said so, these solutions have proven equally effective in stopping threats at any stage of the attack, and also secure digital identities through the company’s proprietary set of AI-powered engines. The credentials attached to Malwarebytes’ technological prowess are boosted by its clientele, which already holds millions of users.
“Malwarebytes provides our partners with a powerful and affordable security management platform that puts maximum control, alongside AI- and human-powered guidance, in the hands of security teams,” said Brian Thomas, SVP of Global Channels at Malwarebytes. “This year, our commitment to a channel-first approach has been instrumental in fostering remarkable growth and delivering substantial value to our partners. We have an exciting lineup planned for 2024, aiming to amplify value and strengthen our channel partnerships even further.”
