Defense-in-Depth (Layered Security) - now it's time to begin the threat monitoring process for your first customer. This will be accomplished in several parts:
-
Agent deployment - (endpoint threat data) navigate to All Customers / Customer Deployment / select your preferred method of delivery, i.e. RMM script, PowerShell. Upon deployment, devices will be in continuous cybersecurity monitoring mode identifying malicious/suspicious activity. The type of threat activity is dependent upon the apps you've enabled from the AppStore in addition to other integrations outlined below.
-
Firewall configuration - (network threat data) navigate to the dashboard and find the Firewall Log Analyzer app. See Configuring the Firewall App.
-
Microsoft 365 configuration: (cloud threat data) navigate to the dashboard and find one of the Microsoft 365 apps. See Configuring the Office 365 Apps.
-
Have been Pwned configuration: (cloud threat data) navigate to Integrations / Dark Web to set up dark web monitoring for Microsoft 365 users. See Set Up HaveIBeenPwned
-
Anti-virus configuration: (malware data) The majority of the NGAV apps are connected using an API Key. The exception would be for Microsoft Defender, which is a full command and control app. See Configuring NGAV Apps.
-
Email Security configuration: (spam/phishing data) Our current integration is with Ironscales and is configured with an API key. Other email security vendors are currently in development.
-
Threat intelligence configuration: (threat intel feed data) The integration with intelligence providers consumes real-time threats from a vendor and puts them into action, resulting in a positive/negative verdict. See Configuring AlienVault Threat Feed.
RocketCyber practices and prioritizes development efforts to a Defense-in-Depth strategy, aligning to the security stack for MSPs. It is encouraged to configure all layers outlined above for each customer to eliminate any potential blind spot to the SOC, putting the customer at risk.
