Cloud Security
Even though your cloud infrastructure is hosted in a separate environment, your cloud perimeter is still attacked all day, every day. Through comprehensive reconnaissance, vulnerability identification, and focused exploitation, nGuard's Cloud Penetration Testing ensures your cloud perimeter security is solid.
Compliance
Perhaps the biggest challenge for many clients is staying in alignment with the alphabet soup of Governance, Regulatory & Compliance (GRC) requirements.
Incident & Breach Response
There’s a well-known truth in information security: It’s only a matter of time before your organization will experience a cyber security incident. The best security technology, policies, procedures and people cannot stop 100% of the threats 100% of the time. For those times, a Cyber Security Incident Response (CSIR) strategy ensures that you can respond quickly, minimize the damage, and restore your operation to top efficiency. That’s when leading organizations choose nGuard Cyber Security Incident Response services. The nGuard CSIR service supplies your firm with an expert Cyber Security Incident Response Team to help guide you through the complex steps of breach identification, containment, elimination and recovery.

To compound the issue, security administrative responsibilities require a specialized skill-set, and almost constant attention, as new threats emerge. nGuard's suite of managed security services is the answer. By supplementing your IT department with nGuard's team of security experts, you get the unique skill set and quick response that keeps you secure.
