The Challenge
“After a major cyber attack, it was a wake-up call for us to secure our business cyber ecosystem and not think of ourselves as being an exception to the rule.”
Before engaging Tarian Cyber, our client was facing frequent cyber attacks, including a major business email compromise which highlighted their vulnerabilities.
Their goal was to secure their business ecosystem without worrying about ongoing cyber threats.
02
The Solution
“The service with Tarian is exceptionally personalised. We were often approached by larger cookie-cutter businesses that we knew would treat us as a number. Tarian has been patient with our simple cyber knowledge base and walked us through every necessary step.”
When we stepped in, we conducted an extensive security review and initiated a thorough security journey with the client and recommended implementing our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services.
Although the client was initially hesitant to adopt these measures, our thorough approach and customised solutions highlighted the critical need for a robust cyber security framework.
After experiencing a second BEC incident, Tarian swiftly contained and remediated the threat, leading the client to adopt our full suite of services.
03
The Outcome
“Through implementing Tarian's cyber security solutions, we have noticed our cyber issues come to a halt and can now operate without interruption.”
The client has seen a significant reduction in cyber issues, greatly improving their security posture. On top of that, the confidence they gained from our services reassured the client that they are no longer easy targets for cyber attacks.
“Hearing about large companies being targeted by cyber attacks, we find great comfort in knowing that we now have a defence line to not be the next business for easy picking,” the client stated.
The client rated our support and communication as a 10/10, stating they regret not engaging our services sooner. “I would only have wished that we did it before having a cyber breach,” the client said, emphasising that our involvement has been crucial in safeguarding their business against cyber threats.
