What is SecureOps™ and how can NNT help?
SecureOps™ combines established best practices for security and IT service management to deliver a holistic and comprehensive solution that identifies and highlights unknown, unwanted and potentially malicious events in real-time…without all the NOISE and headaches of endless alerts.
This strategy is underpinned by NNT’s knowledge of the essential common controls that overlap to support and achieve business objectives from two different vantage points. This approach creates the security foundation and a solution to eliminate security breaches and incidents as we know them today.
As an industry, we need to stop following bright shiny objects and get back to basics. There are NO silver bullets!
Over the past decade, security spending has a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of roughly 8%. What is most alarming is the CAGR of security incidents and breaches is roughly 34%...more than 4 times that of spending. This is NOT a sustainable model!
This data provides three conclusions:
• The security industry as we currently know it is broken!
• You can’t spend you way out of the problem!
• Spending more money gives you a false sense of security!

Security Approach
Focuses on the establishment of policy to detect changes from a known baseline or trusted state by utilizing NNT’s best practices and library of policies. These policies are derived from trusted third-parties like the Center for Internet Security (CIS) CIS Controls that prioritize a set of actions that mitigate an organizations risk from known cyber-attack vectors.

ITSM Approach
Focuses on creating a closed-loop environment specific to “expected” changes. Any identified changes that are not planned or map to an authorized work order are suspect to investigation and/or remediation.
Closed-Looped Intelligent Change Control »
Compliance
The by-product of leveraging these two approaches together is that you are able to deliver continuous compliance & assurance on a daily basis...whatever the standard, regulation or policy.
