Enhance your cyber security with outsourcing services from Northdoor

In today’s digital landscape, businesses recognise the importance of robust cyber security measures. With the ever-evolving threat landscape, organisations must stay one step ahead to protect their valuable assets. One effective solution gaining traction is cyber security outsourcing. By partnering with Northdoor, a leading provider of comprehensive cyber security services, you can unlock a range of benefits tailored to meet your organisation’s needs.

Here are ten key reasons why outsourcing cyber security to Northdoor can benefit your business:

1). Access to skilled professionals:
58% of businesses cited employee skills as the main problem for improving security.
With a global shortage of cyber security professionals, finding, hiring, and retaining top talent can be a significant challenge. By partnering with Northdoor, you gain access to our team of experienced security professionals. This eliminates costly recruitment and training processes while ensuring your organisation benefits from top-tier expertise.

2.) Cost savings:
Building an internal cyber security operations center (CSOC) requires substantial upfront investments in platforms and processes. However, outsourcing cyber security to Northdoor allows you to reduce costs associated with salaries, recruitment fees, sick pay, and annual leave. Our operating models leverage economies of scale to deliver cost-effective security expertise without compromising quality.

3.) Unparalleled experience:
Northdoor brings extensive experience across various industries and customer challenges to the table. Our team has addressed numerous security issues, enabling us to apply best practices and learnings to safeguard your business effectively. Benefit from our insights and industry knowledge to strengthen your cyber security strategy.

4.) Relieve pressure on internal teams:
Internal IT teams often face overwhelming workloads and limited resources. Entrusting your cyber security to Northdoor alleviates this burden, allowing your IT teams to focus on strategic projects and day-to-day business operations without compromising on security. Streamline your operations and maximise productivity with the support of our dedicated cyber security experts.

5.) 24/7 Protection:
Cyber threats don’t adhere to business hours. Northdoor offers round-the-clock security monitoring and response services, ensuring your organisation remains safeguarded at all times. Our dedicated teams stay vigilant, detecting and responding to threats promptly, so you can have peace of mind knowing your business is protected.

6.) Continuity and knowledge preservation:
Relying on a small internal cyber security team poses risks if knowledge is lost when someone leaves the organisation. By partnering with Northdoor, you benefit from a pool of security professionals who follow agreed-upon processes documented within a central knowledge base. This mitigates the risk of knowledge gaps and enhances overall security resilience.

7.) Independent assessment and recommendations:
Northdoor provides an external perspective on your cyber security posture, offering insights and recommendations for further improvements. Our team stays up-to-date with the latest industry developments, enabling us to provide proactive advice tailored to your organisation’s unique needs.

Our focus on service maturity ensures consistent excellence in delivering cyber security services, giving you the confidence that your security is in capable hands.

9.) Industry accreditations and security reviews:
Northdoor holds leading cyber security and information protection accreditations such as ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus. By outsourcing to us, your organisation gains a higher chance of achieving these accreditations through our specialist advice and consultancy services. Strengthen your reputation and demonstrate your commitment to security to clients and stakeholders.

10). Technical expertise and Managed Detection & Response (MDR):
Northdoor provides advanced Managed Detection & Response (MDR) services, leveraging cutting-edge cloud-based security technologies like EDR and XDR platforms. Our team of experts combines this with cyber threat intelligence (CTI) and automation to detect and block threats, allowing your business to stay ahead of evolving cyber risks.
