Cyber Security Portfolio Provides Advanced Persistent Defense Against Evolving Threats
NEW ORLEANS, May 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- (CTIA Booth: #4423) -- TeleCommunication Systems, Inc. (TCS) (NASDAQ: TSYS), a world leader in highly reliable and secure mobile communication technology, today announced the availability of its Enterprise Security & Protection (ESP) cyber security portfolio designed to meet the needs of enterprise organizations with distributed networks, including wireless operators and organizations in the energy and financial sectors.

As technology advances, so do threats to corporate IT infrastructures. A 2012 Ponemon Institute study found that the average cost of a data breach for a U.S. company was over $5 million dollars and compromised an average of 28,000 customer records. TCS' ESP portfolio provides elite cyber solutions to safeguard critical business assets and is centered on five key elements: Assess, Protect, Validate, Monitor and Train.
Key Elements:
-- Assess: Identify vulnerabilities exploitable by potential adversaries,
and recommend countermeasures and corrective actions in order to prevent
attacks before they happen.
-- Protect: Implement protective actions, such as policies, firewalls,
intrusion detection and prevention systems and virus/adware/malware
scanners to provide an effective, ongoing defense against attacks.
-- Validate: Provide an easy-to-understand quantitative measurement of an
enterprise's security posture via the ESP Validation Quotient(TM).
-- Monitor: Provide an ongoing, subscription-style service that monitors
the application, system and enterprise to identify new and emerging
threats and to formulate recommendations for continuous improvement in
security posture.
-- Train: Provide multi-level training for executives, IT professionals and
end users on policies and best practices to ensure a complete, defensive
cyber security stance.
Supporting Quote:
-- Drew Morin, senior vice president and chief technology officer, TCS,
said: "Today's business environment demands a proactive approach to the
rising number of advanced persistent threats attacking corporate IT
infrastructures. Organizations are now realizing that it's no longer a
question of if their network will become the next victim of a cyber
attack, but when. To meet these increasing threats, TCS has expanded its
offering of cyber security solutions to address the needs of enterprise
organizations."
From vulnerability assessment, software engineering and information assurance, to enterprise architecture and cyber malicious activity, TCS helps harden highest-value entities, systems and networks against cyber theft. TCS provides focused training via its ESP curriculum in the fields of penetration testing, forensics-defend strategies and vulnerability analysis and ethical hacking, and brings together many of the brightest minds in security as a forum for research, collaboration and building next-generation technologies to protect critical networks.
