The US Security and Exchange Commission’s Office of Compliance and Inspections and Examinations (OCIE) announced a new series of Cybersecurity guidelines that focused on both examination preparedness and security best-practices.

In response, The LCO Group has launched a new Managed Security Offering targeting small to mid-sized businesses that have both fiduciary and legal obligations to protect their networks from external attack

OVERVIEW: The LCO Group’s Threatvector Shield Managed Security offering is a robust, scalable service that allows organizations concerned about the increasing cyber security threats to easily deploy and manage the threat environment with powerful, flexible alerting and mitigation options.

The LCO Group, a leading provider of technology consulting services in New York City, announced today that they have launched their Threatvector Shield Managed Security offering, for small to mid-size businesses in the tristate area.

The heart of the system is a threat-based heuristic scanning tool that runs continuously in real-time on company networks and monitors the major threat areas for suspicious behavior. Whether this is from users attempting to login repeatedly from overseas locations, issues affecting the entire network, or anomalous behavior from a single workstation, the Threatvector Shield system will give a clear and constant view into the inner workings of an underlying infrastructure.

The Threatvector Shield offering comes in several flavors; the Alarm package offers you basic detection capabilities, the Enhanced offers more advanced detection capabilities, and the Pro system includes remediation.

Features include active and passive network scanning, asset inventory, host-based software inventory, file integrity monitoring, continuous vulnerability monitoring, and a full suite of compliance reporting options.

For businesses that are looking to reap the benefits of a powerful, but value-priced security offering, Threatvector Shield by LCO offers the next generation of security alerting and management.

The LCO Group is New York’s leading provider of next generation technology services. LCO’s other offerings include complete infrastructure support, managed services, security assessments, compliance analysis, 24×7 network and server monitoring, and other outsourced consulting services.
