What exactly is cyber resilience anyway?

The world of cybersecurity is complicated, to say the least. From the terms that we all use to the threats that those terms, in turn, represent when mitigating the risk of attacks, to the endless list of threat types that impact daily...

Why Cyber Security Needs to Get to the Point

Data Protection

With Calian’s dynamic Data Protection solutions, organizations can solve the fundamental challenges of traditional data loss prevention (DLP) deployments and, more effectively, protect sensitive information including regulated data sources and critical IP.

We also leverage behavioral analytics (human-centric monitoring) to prevent data leakage and insider threats through identifying baseline normalized behavior—the real-time ability to uncover abnormal internal/external data access and file movement that matches a compromised credential event.

With Calian’s intelligent analytics, unified policy, and dynamic enforcement at the core of its solutions, organizations can provide the end-to-end, human-centric security architecture that is required for the security challenges of today and tomorrow.

Cloud Security – CASB & DLP

We believe that when it comes to threat protection, there are only two threats that need to be monitored: those who work for the organization, and those who don’t.

To accomplish this bi-modal monitoring approach, we build on the people and process foundation to provide a data-centric solution, all paired with our industry-leading partners who represent the most comprehensive and cost-effective solutions in the IT and information security industry.

These include Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), Gateway and Network Security, Data Security and DLP, Endpoint Security, Mobile Security, and Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM).

Data Encryption

Our unique, proven approach is based on implementing transparent and efficient data protection at all levels of the enterprise data stack, including the application, database (column or file), file system, full disk (virtual machine), and network attached storage levels.

More so, we take a complete lifecycle approach to encryption, ensuring that organizations are covered from encryption key and certificate discovery, to complete management and secure storage.

Endpoint Security

At Calian, our experts view endpoint protection as far more than just the usual and often antiquated antivirus approach. Instead, we combine user awareness, training, and next generation data protection to provide multifaceted solutions to protect endpoints from current and future threats.

With the end user/endpoint being an organization’s greatest vulnerability and the largest attack vector, we also ensure everyone is trained on endpoint security as it’s the cornerstone to building a layered and integrated security posture.

IAM & PAM

Identity Access Management (IAM) and Privileged Access Management (PAM) are not products to Calian, they are a process. Our approach to IAM starts with people, then process, followed by technology.

After training people on effective processes and policies, we recommend solutions to automate and improve the efficiencies of these processes and policies. Technology comes at the end when we automate and improve the process of granting and removing access.

Emissions Security

To address the ever-connected world of electronic devices, Calian's Emission Security solutions comprehensively analyze system vulnerabilities—identifying all foreign unauthorized access that may be trying to take advantage of electromagnetic emanations from all common (and not so common) hardware devices. We do this through our services, training and integration support in the areas of EMSEC, In-Place RF Monitoring, and RF Spectrum Analysis.
