WaveProtect Managed Detect and Response (MDR) powered by Sophos
Chances are that unless you’re a large enterprise or government agency, you can’t afford to stand up your own 24 x7 Security Operations Centre (SOC) investigating all of the attempted breaches and probes into your data, let alone effectively respond if, somehow, your defences are breached. At the same time, Schools, Academies and Trusts can’t afford not to take the increasing threat seriously.
An increasing number of schools are falling prey to Ransomware attacks, and the ability of schools to recover is reliant on immediate response and mitigation as well as secure backup of critical data.
In a recent survey (Feb 2024), the average ransom demand for primary and secondary schools was over £3M.
WaveProtect Managed Detect and Response is a 24 x7 monitoring, threat hunting and mitigation as a service powered by Sophos, a world leader in cyber security protection. Supplementing your existing resources, working with your existing software stack, and priced on a per-device basis, with discount available for our education customers, MDR offers unrivalled protection against modern threat actors.
What this means for you
- 24 x 7 SOC coverage
- Instant response to cyber threats
