Shoring Up Your Cyber Defense: Real-Time Threat Detection and Response
There is no end in sight for cybersecurity incidents. Many organizations invest heavily in security tools, but tools alone aren’t enough. Learn how a Security Operations Center (SOC) provides the expertise, continuous monitoring, and rapid response needed to safeguard your business, reputation, and people.
Join us on March 6th at Gibsons Steakhouse in Oak Brook, IL to hear from Mindsight CIO Tad Gralewski and High Wire Networks’ Travis Ray as they explore how combining SOC services with AI-powered Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) delivers the proactive protection required to stay ahead of today’s evolving threats.
You’ll gain insights into:
- Why SOC services catch threats that EDR alone misses
- The critical role of 24/7 monitoring and human expertise in threat management
- Real-world success stories of companies that have strengthened their defenses and optimized resources with SOC and EDR
This is your opportunity to learn from industry leaders, hear real success stories, and refine your cybersecurity strategy. Feel free to bring a colleague and register today!
