Understanding the Pillars of a Comprehensive Outsourced Cybersecurity Program

Maintaining a strong cybersecurity program is an ongoing challenge for any business, but poses a significant hurdle for small and mid-sized companies that may lack the internal resources to craft a robust solution. In an environment where any data breach can be financially crippling—and potentially business-ending for smaller organizations—many organizations have found it difficult to build and retain an in-house team capable enough to provide the protection they need. A comprehensive outsourced cybersecurity provider offers a viable way to address those needs, however. 

We’ve outlined before why a comprehensive outsourced cybersecurity plan makes sense for many businesses and how such an arrangement checks all the boxes for organizations looking to add resiliency and consistency to their risk management profile. Here’s a quick review of the benefits found with an outsourced partner: 

• Complete coverage — Address every aspect of cybersecurity, with one provider 

• 24/7 monitoring — Rest easy knowing your environment is being protected at all times 

• Access to leading tech — The right partner can leverage their relationships with cutting-edge vendors 

• Guidance from CISOs — Vetted and proven cybersecurity leaders offer strategy and advice on how to proceed 

• Ongoing support — From patching to finding and addressing gaps, continued support maintains your resiliency 

While all those benefits certainly apply to our Outsourced Enterprise Cybersecurity Program at Inversion6, it’s our fundamental approach that can make the biggest difference for organizations struggling in today’s environment. Today we’re detailing how that approach plays out in practice and how our comprehensive outsourced cybersecurity program is an ideal fit—whether your current IT team or partner is non-existent, barely built, or has left you needing more.

The Foundation of Our Comprehensive Outsourced Cybersecurity Program 

At Inversion6, we provide a holistic cybersecurity solution that is completely customizable to each client’s unique requirements. We have decades of experience in offering complete security coverage that addresses every aspect of your security and IT needs. The difference in our comprehensive outsourced cybersecurity program, however, comes from the pillar elements that strengthen each of the benefits that such a plan provides. These include:  

Leadership & Guidance 

Clients are provided with a senior expert, a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), who offers strategic guidance and manages the security program. This ensures the security strategy is aligned with the client’s goals and regulatory needs. No matter the cybersecurity knowledge in place internally, you’ll have an experienced hand who can prioritize tasks, oversee the entire plan, and plot a path forward.  

Operational Expertise 

We bring a comprehensive Security Operations Center (SOC) to handle the operational aspect, including continuous monitoring and incident response. It operates 24/7/365 with experienced professionals managing ongoing security operations.  

Execution Support 

A dedicated security analyst or engineer familiarizes themselves with the client's environment, assisting with the implementation of security measures. This ensures effective addressing of identified vulnerabilities and risks.  

These pillars give you insight to identify what to do, the personnel to carry it out, and the SOC to make sure it stays up to the task. 

An Example of Comprehensive Outsourced Cybersecurity 

These foundational pillars are woven into all components of our outsourced cybersecurity program. As a way of illustrating how they work holistically, let’s dial into one specific component— autonomous penetration testing. Pentesting is critical to conduct on a regular basis to discover what gaps or exploits may exist in your current environment. With our foundational strengths, this process delivers complete results from start to finish. 

• Our SOC delivers the ‘mechanical’ aspects of the testing procedure. It executes the tests, probing and surveying your environment to determine weaknesses or overlooked elements. 

• Our leadership liaison, the CISO, then analyzes and delivers the results of those tests, helping the client make sense of them. They prioritize the remediation efforts, making it clear what is most important and what needs addressed first. 

• Then our team of experts act on those insights and work with you to fix the issues found and remediate gaps that the pentesting has uncovered.  

This same comprehensive approach is applied to every component and element of the entire cybersecurity plan. While we’ve highlighted pentesting here, it also applies to any number of other aspects from SaaS application security to cybersecurity compliance efforts and much more.
