SECURITY SPOTLIGHT
If Your AV Integrator Isn't Talking to You About
Cybersecurity, Walk Away!
Understanding cybersecurity threats and how to protect your company can be daunting,
but integrators should offer the service every time. by Molly Malone
WE SEE THE TREMENDOUS costs of failed
cybersecurity programs in the news every
day. According to one widely reported
study, in 2021 the global cost associated
with ransomware recovery will exceed $20
billion and ransomware attacks against
businesses will occur every 11 seconds.
With the fast-changing digital landscape,
understanding the threats and
how to protect your organization can be
daunting. When it comes to information
security, trusted technology partners with
solid cybersecurity software are the key to
business continuity.
Solutionz has determined that it is our
responsibility to provide an extra layer of
protection to our customers, so our cybersecurity
solution comes standard with each
new project we install.

Why Solutionz Focuses
on Cybersecurity
Here's more information about how our
cybersecurity solution helps SMBs protect
their networks from intrusions.
Because most major cybersecurity

SMBs often do not have large IT teams to monitor and respond to cyberattacks.
Solutionz monitors, blocks and reports threats.
firms are designed to protect the top 1% of
large companies, Solutionz saw a need in
the marketplace for cybersecurity solutions
that protect SMBs from cyberattacks.
Solutionz's cybersecurity package can be
deployed as a layer over existing cybersecurity
solutions.
SMBs often do not have large IT teams to
monitor and respond to cyberattacks. Solutionz
monitors, blocks and reports threats.
While clients have access to an elegant user
interface that provides visibility into threat
activities, no internal resources are required
to address nefarious network activity.
Solutionz provides organizations a
stream of data about what is coming in and
out of their network and then delivering
value by applying sophisticated analytics
and blocking capabilities without requiring
the customer to do anything.
Threats are detected by examining the IP
addresses coming into networks and scoring
threat levels based on three primary
components:
› A combination of dozens of threat
intelligence feeds combined with proprietary
analytics that gauge the relative
merit of each list, the history of the IP's
list presence, and other factors to determine
if an IP present on a list should, in
fact, be scored a high-risk connection
› Proprietary predictive analytics to
assess the risk of IPs not on any threat
intelligence list
› Community analytics based on patented
technology used to, for example,
reduce the rate of false positives
Data breaches exposed 36 billion
records in the first half of 2020. Can you
afford not to invest in cybersecurity?
