The offering enables enterprises to
minimize the blast radius of data incidents, determine materiality,
accelerate remediation, and meet new reporting
requirements
NEW
YORK, June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Today, Cyera, the leader in data security, announced the
availability of the Cyera Incident Response Service. This
retainer-based service is staffed by a team of experienced incident
responders who leverage Cyera's market-leading data security
solution to bring the critical data insights and context needed to
respond to incidents with speed and focus - and determine what data
matters most.
Cyera's new service offering addresses an ever-increasing market
need. According to the Identity Theft Resource Center's 2023 Annual
Data Breach Report, last year, incidents of data compromise rose
78%, reaching an all-time high. IBM research discovered that
identifying and containing a data breach takes an average of 277
days.
When incidents arise, cybersecurity leaders are on the clock to
determine the level of risk to which the organization is exposed.
However, the risk impact depends heavily on the importance of the
data. CISOs spend too much time chasing incidents without
understanding the impacted data and the overall materiality of a
breach. Cyera's new service changes that.
"We thought long and hard about the most important aspect when
it comes to incident response, and we interviewed dozens of
customers," said Nathan Smolenski,
Head of Risk and Incident Response Services at Cyera. "The answer
we kept coming to was simple - protecting sensitive data."
Many incident response services are centered around who the bad
actor is, determining if the threat persists, and ensuring the
threat is eradicated - Cyera uniquely approaches the problem. The
Cyera Incident Response Service discovers what data was impacted by
the breach, where the data was stored, who had access to it (human
and non-human entities), what the data was used for, and the
materiality of the incident.
This service comes at a time in the macro security landscape
where this level of data insight and precision is more essential
than ever as the new Securities and Exchange Commission's four-day
disclosure rule takes effect.
The service is comprised of an elite set of cybersecurity
professionals who leverage Cyera's award-winning data security
platform to lead customers through a swift data incident response
process and help to minimize the blast radius to prevent additional
data risk.
When a data incident is detected, the Cyera Incident Response
Service team will conduct a full incident analysis to define the
extent of the breach and sensitive data impacted for customers of
the service, which includes:
- Identifying immediate areas of focus for impact analysis
- Performing prioritized data store scans to classify data and
determine environment posture
- Detecting and analyzing areas of impact
- Developing a mitigation plan
- Determining the materiality of an incident
- Reviewing and improving the data governance strategy
- Guiding mitigation implementation to improve data security
posture
"It's great to see Cyera pioneering the data incident response
space," said veteran CISO Roland Cloutier. "Data is involved in
every part of our responsibilities to enable and defend our digital
businesses. This new service ensures security, risk, and privacy
leaders have the tools necessary to respond to and reduce the
impact of data incidents through tools focused on data breach
response. Their innovative approach to data discovery, security,
and reporting is a critical tool all security teams need."
