Onboarding with MPGSOC: The Data Discovery Workshop

Onboarding a new security service provider is daunting and exciting, especially if your business has never engaged security services before. For the provider, it is a chance to build trust, learn about the customer’s unique needs, and ultimately, become their shield against ever-evolving cyber threats. At MPGSOC, we take this process a step further with our Data Discovery Workshop, a collaborative deep dive into your cybersecurity environment.

The Data Discovery Workshop isn't just about collecting data; it's about forging a partnership and laying the foundation for a strong security posture between your security provider and your organization. We, the MPGSOC team, become your trusty companions, delving into your security logs, understanding your network architecture, and uncovering the intricacies of your attack surface. The more we know, the better MPGSOC can protect your business assets from even the most insidious threats.

From Discover to Plan: Charting the Course Together

Once the workshop dust settles, your dedicated MPGSOC success manager swings into action. Armed with the insights gathered from the Discovery Workshop, they'll guide you through the planning stage.

The planning stage is where MPGSOC takes the raw data and together with your team determine your security posture baseline. We'll discuss communication protocols, ensuring we're always on the same page when it comes to security alerts and incident response. We'll also explain the path and deployment of our industry-leading EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) and SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) solutions, explaining your role in the process and outlining the phased approach to policy deployment.

Think of it as building a security fortress, brick by brick. We'll discuss the types of logs we need, the sensors and applications we'll deploy to protect your specific environment, and how we'll work together to ensure optimal coverage.

Deploy: Where the Rubber Meets the Road

Deployment is where the MPGSOC team rolls up its sleeves and gets down to work, hand-in-hand with you. We'll monitor the deployment of our EDR sensors, ensuring they're seamlessly integrated into your network. We'll work with you to fine-tune log collection, making sure every digital breadcrumb is captured and analyzed.

What follows is a powerful arsenal of pre-built detections and threat intelligence tailored to your specific environment. You'll have access to this ever-evolving library, empowering you to stay ahead of the curve and proactively protect your organization from the most sophisticated attacks.

The MPGSOC Difference: A Partnership, Not Just a Service

The Data Discovery Workshop isn't just a one-off event; it's the cornerstone of our customer onboarding process. It's about building a relationship, not just delivering a service. We believe that by truly understanding your environment and working with you every step of the way, we can become more than just your security provider. Our goal is to become your trusted partner in protecting your business, laying groundwork that scales to defend your assets.

We look forward to working together, providing security service that goes beyond the surface. Let's unlock the secrets of your security environment together and build a future where you can focus on what truly matters, securely protected by your digital fortress and the team at MPGSOC.
