Cyber Defence in VUCA world
In the current scenario, information technology has emerged as the core of the business. Failure to embrace it can lead to immense losses. The adoption of IT opens the businesses to the concept of cybersecurity, which remains a key for them. Cyber defence is the need of the hour to ensure the security of the information and processing systems. At OrangeMantra, we understand that the conventional cyber defence strategies are not enough to stronghold organizational security in the dynamic threat landscape. Therefore, we deliver tailored solutions that protect businesses from the ever-growing cyber threats such as ransomware, cyber espionage etc. We build comprehensive and result-oriented cyber defence solutions that are based on the VUCA thinking approach, which is the brainchild of the U.S. Armed forces.
Volatility
The IT environment in organizations is volatile and cybersecurity measures need to keep pace to deal with threats and vulnerabilities encountered on a routine basis. At Orange Mantra, we build empowered solutions that are capable of countering volatility by providing information security against zero-day attacks.
Uncertainty
Certainty is just an illusion in the cyber world as it is hard to know the systems on infrastructure. Understanding the state of assets is equally difficult, with the ever-growing list of technologies, tools, and services being deployed. Our advisory services enable the clients to make informed decisions despite the business uncertainties.
Complexity
The current business scenario is challenging because every device, application, and service deployed brings new complexities for it. With this comes the challenge of striking the balance between functionality and complexity. Adoption of cyber security defence mechanisms brings its own significant complexities but we deal with them effectively.
Ambiguity
Ambiguity is perhaps the biggest bane for the IT security team in any organization. There are questions that come from all directions and the answers are hard to find. What to do with the endless log data? How to find and handle the real threat? Our cyber defence services are meant to address this challenge with innovative tools and ideas.
