Managed Services Centre partners with Beyond Security to provide complete protection for customers.

Sept. 14, 2010 - PRLog -- London UK, 14th September 2010. Managed Services Centre today announced its partnership with Beyond Security, the security vulnerability testing expert. The partnership will counterattack threats and IT weaknesses faced by organisations on a daily basis.
Managed Services Centre delivers comprehensive IT management solutions for a diverse spectrum of organisations within the UK. The partnership will use Beyond Security’s testing technologies to reveal any security faults within websites, and scan for corporate network vulnerabilities.

This partnership, only the second with an English company for the American based Beyond Security, will provide a complementary addition to MSC’s existing solutions, in particular MSCprotect: a comprehensive web security solution. MSCprotect provides defence for any organisation with an online presence. Threats can hinder an organisations’ performance, therefore through continuous scanning performed externally, the client can focus on the business activity, whilst confident that any vulnerabilities are immediately dealt with.

Beyond Security and Managed Services Centre both work to protect the online operations of organisations through the successful utilisation of security monitoring and management.
Beyond Security provide a Web Site Security Auditing (WSSA) service, which scans a site and its servers to identify any potential security flaws or coding vulnerabilities within it. Routine testing is performed, in order to assess the ‘strength’ of any site against threats, which are graded based on the level of risk they may present. Each site has its own individual security seal; providing a certificate to guarantee the security of a site stating, if applicable, that it is ‘vulnerability free’, this ensures that the site is protected against any known vulnerability. In addition to WSSA, Managed Services Centre will also be offering its clients AVDS (the Automated Vulnerability Detection System). This solution routinely and automatically tests every device that 'speaks IP' within a network for security vulnerabilities, detailing issues, prioritising them, tracking their repair and most importantly enabling clients to easily maintain their compliances.

Mark Mottershead, Managing Director at Managed Services Centre said: “MSC’s partnership with Beyond Security is paramount to our on-going growth objectives, as it complements our other best of breed services. It provides our clients with the assurance that MSC are utilising leading edge technology to covertly and overtly thwart cybercrime activities, by providing a safe and secure environment to operate in. Beyond Security is a likeminded partner, who continues to adapt its services, which by working together with MSC will offer a very strong and unique set of solutions to the marketplace.”

Aviram Jenik, Director of Beyond Security said: "We are extremely pleased to have been chosen by MSC to assist them in the delivery of website and network security services.  Their goals of reducing IT complexity, boosting productivity and optimising network performance align perfectly with our product design intensions.  By automating vulnerability assessment, security staffs can choose their battles, rather than constantly fighting on the defensive. This is particularly true when it comes to maintaining compliance with company security policies and external mandates. Routine, automated security testing reveals weaknesses as they occur giving time to plan their elimination. Handling vulnerabilities on such a basis makes passing quarterly or annual inspections a simple matter of signing off that security is in place."
