Improved Security Performance and Risk-Aligned Coverage Now Available
to Wider Range of Clients
CSC (NYSE: CSC) for the first time will offer its Managed Security
Services, including its most advanced capabilities, on a stand-alone
basis to help clients better address the continually escalating threat
environment. Delivered through the company's around-the-globe Security
Operations Centers, CSC Managed Security Services now offer every
organization convenient access to enhanced core security along with
risk-appropriate options for advanced malware protection, global threat
intelligence, situational awareness and governance risk and compliance
support. Whether delivered as a discrete solution or as part of a larger
IT outsourcing agreement, the offering includes balanced security
packages that enable clients to gain tailored cyber protection while
successfully meeting challenges posed by reduced security budgets,
limited skilled resources and tightening regulatory mandates.
Now available for a much wider range of client organizations, the proven
offering reflects CSC's enterprise-level managed services experience,
unique expertise across both public- and private-sector security
environments and record of strengthening cyber security for some of the
world's largest intelligence organizations. As one of the only
vendor-independent managed security services providers (MSSPs) for
mid-market and large enterprises, the company is well-positioned to
integrate the best available tools from a broad spectrum of leading
vendors with its own intellectual property to create a uniquely
comprehensive and flexible security offering for this growing market.
According to "The Forrester Wave™: Managed Security Services, North
America, Q1 2012," published by Forrester Research, Inc., on March 23,
2012, "today's economic environment and mutating threat landscape are
forcing CISOs to consider alternatives to simply insourcing information
security. MSSPs leverage impressive economies of scale to offer clients
an enhanced security environment, cost-effective security, and a
scalable and flexible security platform capable of handling future
expansion."
Recognized as a "Leader" in "The Forrester Wave™: Managed Security
Services, North America, Q1 2012," CSC designed its Managed Security
Services portfolio around a flexible, "tiered" approach that helps
organizations access security with low risk, stage their evolution over
time toward the most effective posture addressing the complexity of
today's threat-and-compliance environment and better align spending to
their specific needs.
"Organizations do not have a single risk profile -- some aspects of their
business are lower risk while others are of extremely high value and
require the most advanced protection available," says Carlos Solari, CSC
vice president of Cybersecurity Technology and Services. "Traditionally,
managed security services providers have applied the same level of
security across an enterprise resulting in either too much cost in
protecting lower value assets or not enough security where it is really
needed. Our services tiers enable our clients to buy risk appropriate
coverage, from enhanced core services to the most advanced and elevated
state-of-the-art cyber protection."
