From the chief information security officer (CISO) to the chair of a
public company’s board of directors – today’s business leaders know that
cyber attackers are seeking to gain entry into their systems. But too
often they still engage in the “build a better system” game that relies
on technology, rather than building an integrated picture of insights
and data. This method may stave off attacks in the short term, but
ultimately, organizations lack the data-driven insights to pre-empt the
next attack or the ability to integrate their cyber intelligence into a
daily workflow.
The strategic partnership with Trend Micro builds on Booz Allen’s deep
Cyber Threat Intelligence services. Trend Micro supports Booz Allen’s
security operations services, helping to defend organizations from
advanced, malicious adversaries through pro-active Advanced Persistent
Threat (APT) hunting, malware analysis, and security operations center
support. The integrated team of Booz Allen and Trend Micro experts
brings our clients:
-
world-class consulting practices and technology to help commercial and
federal organizations understand their attackers and their
motivations, and to respond to, analyze and mediate breaches;
-
best practices in defense against advanced, malicious adversaries
through proactive APT hunting; and the
-
integration of cyber intelligence tradecraft to extract maximum value
from emerging to mature cyber capabilities.
“Whether you are a CISO managing global security operations at a
financial institution or a federal leader planning for tomorrow’s
mission, your need for greater intelligence and tradecraft continues to
rise. And as the world around cyber leaders becomes more connected, your
customers’ expectations for privacy and security are also increasing,”
said Brad
Medairy, Booz Allen senior vice president and leader in the firm’s
Predictive Intelligence business in the Strategic Innovation Group.
“Together with Trend Micro, we provide decision-makers the actionable
intelligence and an ecosystem of tools to assess and stay ahead of
coming attacks.”
“Today’s cyber adversaries are more sophisticated and aggressive than
ever,” said Tom Kellermann, chief cybersecurity officer, Trend Micro.
“This new reality demands collaboration among industry thought leaders
to stave off the onslaught of threats, ranging from intellectual
property to sensitive personnel information. By aligning with Booz
Allen, Trend Micro can deliver more than a quarter century of experience
to help decision makers better understand their vulnerabilities, and
what action should be taken, to guard against current and future
threats. We look forward to working with their exceptional team while
sharing our innovation and insight to stay ahead of the fast-evolving
threat landscape.”
