The growing trend of developing all-in-one platforms that combine various cybersecurity functions — including threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, endpoint protection, and sometimes even IT management tools — has a new player in the market.
This week, Cynet launched its All-in-One Cybersecurity Platform, enabling MSPs to provide a full breach protection service with a single tool, backed by 24/7 support.
Cynet affirms that as market demand for security support surges, many MSPs are rolling out their own MSSP offering. However, while the revenue potential may be lucrative, the road for many MSPs to transition into a MSSP is perceived as prohibitively difficult, time-consuming and expensive.
So, rather than integrating an array of standalone cybersecurity products, Cynet’s All-in-One Cybersecurity Platform is "purpose-built on an easy-to-use console." This design allows MSPs to replace multiple cybersecurity tools to reduce costs and maximize margins, while providing more effective breach protection to their clients, according to Cynet.
Converting from an MSP into an MSSP Overnight
Cynet states that it has taken a “built-not-bought approach to native integration,” with the aim of a “seamless, intuitive user experience.” As a result, this approach enables Cynet’s partners to evolve from an MSP into an MSSP in just 24 hours.
And by taking those essential tools and natively building them into a single product, MSPs can efficiently onboard new customers without needing to significantly increase their security operations headcount.
The All-in-One Cybersecurity Platform is backed by around-the-clock monitoring by CyOps, Cynet’s in-house managed detection and response (MDR) capability. This added layer of expertise ensures any threat detected in an MSP client’s environment is instantly addressed, according to the company.
CyOps is available on demand to provide support for the MSP’s staff or directly to the MSP’s clients. It can also work as an extension of their teams to accelerate incident response.
Cynet Joins Major Platform Players
Several companies offer platforms that are often used by MSSPs and MSPs. The choice of platform usually depends on the specific needs, scale and infrastructure of the organization.
Here are some of the top all-in-one platforms:
- Palo Alto Networks Prisma Cloud & Cortex XDR. With their Cortex XDR, Palo Alto Networks delivers an integrated security solution that combines data from multiple sources for comprehensive threat detection and response. The company also offers MDR services leveraging its eXtended detection and response (XDR) technology, enhancing overall security posture and incident response efficiency.
- CrowdStrike Falcon. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM extends extended detection and response (EDR) capabilities, threat intelligence and expert services to all data sources for complete visibility and protection.
- Fortinet FortiGate and FortiSIEM. FortiGate secures enterprises from a broad array of network threats, and it's also geared for SMBs who need to protect cloud deployments with enterprise-grade network security. FortiSIEM is designed to be the backbone of an organization’s security operations team, delivering capabilities that include the application of behavioral analytics to rapidly detect and respond to threats.
