Dubai - Pacific Controls Cloud Services (PCCS), a part of Pacific Controls Group, Dubai-based global provider of end-to-end managed application services, and solutions for machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) applications, has introduced new managed services for web security as a service (WSaaS) and Database Security as a service (DSaaS) for customers in the Middle East region.
The pioneering managed cloud security ecosystem provides a complete packaged security solution with SLA for critical customers in the government, banking, financial institutions, public and private organisations.
Commenting on the new service, Mr. Ajay Kumar Rai, General Manager of Cloud Services at PCCS, said, "We are happy to introduce the new managed offerings in the cloud services segment here in the region. For this, Pacific Controls has partnered with Imperva, a world-class cyber security leader with 12-years' market leadership in protecting business-critical data and applications."
"The security ecosystem is designed to dynamically update based on the latest threats in the cyberspace supported with the Imperva threat intelligence crowd-sourced from around the world and updated in real time to deliver superior protection. WSaaS identifies and acts upon dangers maliciously woven into innocent-looking website traffic; traffic that slips right through traditional defences," he confirmed.
According to Mr. Rai, the PCCS managed security solutions fits seamlessly into physical, virtual and cloud based environments. It delivers the market's most advanced web application and database security, constantly updated with threat intelligence curated by the renowned Imperva Application Defense Center research team.
"Web applications and databases are prime target of cyber-attacks and insider threats because they are readily accessible and offer an easy entry point to valuable data. To combat cyber-attacks and insider threats, organizations need to protect their websites and applications including databases from existing and emerging internal and cyber threats without affecting application performance or uptime," he elaborated.
The WSaaS from PCCS offers customers a range of values that include best value with minimal upfront costs and a highly competitive monthly pricing model; multiple SLA's suited for different security requirements, managed web application firewall on premise; Pacific Controls Datacenter; Pacific Controls Cloud and Microsoft Azure cloud; accurate and automated protection against online web application threats; managed database security assessment with 360-degree view and customized reports; automated learning of user and application behavior with in-depth malicious traffic analysis and remediation; and mitigating the OWASP Top 10 and addressing PCI DSS 6.6 compliance for web application.
