Companies are increasingly moving their on-prem based apps into either public or private cloud computing platforms. Whether your organization chooses public cloud platforms such as AWS and Microsoft Azure or a private cloud platform such as IBM Cloud, moving digital workloads off of on-prem servers delivers compelling cost, agility, and scalability benefits. Forward-thinking CIOs know that migrating as many of these digital workloads as possible to the cloud is the best way to achieve operational efficiency.
Cloud Workload Protection (CWP) solves the inherent problem with using legacy perimeter-based cybersecurity products designed to protect on-prem servers. In fact, itâ€s a new agent-based technology that is specifically designed for cloud computing environments. Leveraging a managed security service for tenant-side security gives IT/Security teams the opportunity to refocus limited time and resources on strategic business opportunities instead of managing infrastructure and technology.
Masergy Managed Cloud Workload Protection solutions are designed for highly dynamic cloud environments and include a complete suite of security functions that comprehensively secure and monitor cloud workloads to reduce risks and improve operational efficiencies.
Masergy Managed Cloud Workload Protection deploys automatically via scripts or orchestration tools using lightweight, tamper-resistant agents. These agents automatically authenticate into the SaaS-based management platform and receive updated security policies every 60 seconds according to workload tags for specific security and use cases. Any security misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, or indicators of compromise (loC) notifications found on your cloud-based workloads are immediately sent to the Masergy Security Operations Center (SOC) for triage and immediate response.
