Frequently Asked Questions
Our team’s real-time analysis and contextual comprehension enable us to accurately assess threat severity and attributes. By maintaining open lines of communication and sharing pertinent information, we tailor our response strategies to align with your organisational goals and risk thresholds. Together, we strategise and implement a coordinated response plan, swiftly containing threats and minimising their impact. Our shared objective is to equip you with the insights and resources necessary to bolster your cybersecurity posture and effectively combat evolving threats.
There is a wide range of technology and applications used by our customers. Typically, much of this is common (e.g. productivity apps, firewall platforms, endpoints) and Excite Cyber have use cases and onboarding processes ready to go for these. For less common and tailored applications, we have procedures and tools to quickly enable most forms of data to be ingested and analysed. Details of the log sources will be discussed and confirmed during the proposal stage.
Excite Cyber run and control our SOC tools, including the log ingestion and storage platform. This gives us the flexibility to price this based on value, not log volumes or events per second. Typically, the value will be represented by the volume of alerts generated and incidents raised, and not what is ingested. We will take you through this as we scope out the service.
