IONIX is designed to do just that, providing businesses with a faster mean time to resolution, reducing risk, and minimizing attack surface threats.  

Reducing Attack Surface

Attack surface reduction is a critical component of any effective cybersecurity strategy. An attack surface refers to the total number of potential vulnerabilities and entry points that an organization has in its infrastructure and applications that could be exploited by cybercriminals. By reducing the attack surface, businesses can take a proactive approach to cybersecurity and minimize the risk of being targeted by hackers. To reduce the attack surface, organizations need to identify, assess, and prioritize all potential vulnerabilities and risks in the IT infrastructure and applications. This includes conducting regular vulnerability scans, penetration testing, and risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities such as unpatched software, weak passwords, and misconfigured systems. Once potential vulnerabilities have been identified, businesses must then prioritize the remediation efforts based on risk severity. This involves determining which vulnerabilities pose the most significant risk to the organization based on factors such as potential impact, likelihood of exploitation, and business criticality. By prioritizing remediation efforts, businesses can ensure that they are addressing the most critical vulnerabilities first and reducing the attack surface most effectively.

Control Subsidiary Risk

As organizations grow and expand globally, they often acquire new subsidiaries and business units that may operate in different countries and follow various regulatory frameworks. This can create significant cybersecurity challenges, as it can be challenging to maintain visibility and control over the entire organization's cybersecurity posture. Controlling subsidiary risk involves integrating the cybersecurity frameworks, policies, and practices of newly acquired business units into the organization's existing cybersecurity strategy. This includes conducting a thorough assessment of the subsidiary's cybersecurity posture to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities. Once identified, these risks must be prioritized, and remediation efforts must be implemented to ensure a consistent and coherent cybersecurity approach across the entire organization. Another critical aspect of controlling subsidiary risk is ensuring compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards. This involves understanding the cybersecurity legal and regulatory requirements relevant to the subsidiary's operations, ensuring compliance with these requirements, and regularly reviewing and updating cybersecurity policies and practices as necessary.

Cloud Security

As more and more organizations migrate the IT infrastructure and applications to the cloud, cloud security has become a critical component of any effective cybersecurity strategy. While cloud providers offer a range of security features and controls, businesses still need to take proactive steps to ensure the security of the cloud-based assets. Cloud security solutions often involve implementing a range of cloud-specific security controls to secure cloud infrastructure and applications. These include cloud access security brokers (CASBs), which provide visibility and control over cloud access and usage, and cloud encryption services that help to secure data stored in the cloud. Other cloud security solutions include continuous cloud monitoring to identify potential threats and risks across the organization's cloud infrastructure, as well as threat intelligence feeds that help organizations to stay informed about the latest cyber threats and attack vectors.
