It is aimed at small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and allows companies to quickly assess their cybersecurity level, identify vulnerabilities, and receive recommendations for their elimination.

Purpose and capabilities of the express audit

The express audit is conducted by specialists from the UserGate Monitoring and Response Center (MRC) and includes:

·         Analysis of the security of the corporate IT infrastructure perimeter.

·         Identification of potential vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

·         Preparation of a report with a detailed description of possible risks.

·         Development of recommendations for their elimination.

The procedure takes 5 business days and is carried out at a fixed price of 100,000 rubles. The service is provided on a competitive basis - companies can apply for an audit.

MRC UserGate is a team of information security experts involved in:

·         Monitoring the information space and analyzing cyber threats.

·         Identifying new attacks and developing countermeasures.

·         Supporting the implementation of UserGate security solutions.

·         Auditing and consulting in the field of information security.

·         Monitoring the corporate infrastructure of clients using the SOC-as-a-Service model.

MRC specialists use data from internal analytical reports, feeds from technology partners, customers, as well as public reports from developers, thematic conferences and forums. This approach allows for the timely detection and neutralization of cyber threats.

Expert comment

Dmitry Kuzevanov, CISO, Director of the Monitoring and Response Center MRC UserGate:

"Every day we analyze a huge amount of data about attacks targeting corporate networks. While large companies can devote enough attention to cybersecurity, small and medium-sized businesses are often defenseless due to a lack of resources and expertise. In today's world, one successful cyberattack can threaten the existence of a company.

The "Express Security Audit" project aims to raise awareness among small businesses about cyber risks. We want to provide companies with access to expert knowledge, help assess the level of security and make the service affordable. UserGate is ready to share its expertise and ensure the security of the digital infrastructure of enterprises of any scale".

Thanks to the high qualifications of experts, companies will be able to minimize the risks of cyberattacks, optimize security measures and increase the level of security of their IT infrastructure.

That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
