Waterloo, Ontario, March 23, 2021– eSentire, category creator and the leading global Managed Detection and Response (MDR) cybersecurity services provider, today announced that it has become a Corporate Member of the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). CSA is the world’s leading organization dedicated to defining and raising awareness of best practices to help ensure a secure cloud computing environment.

 

“We’re excited to join CSA and share our experience and knowledge, so as to move the needle forward in protecting organizations and individual computer users against the growing array of cyber threats,” said Kerry Bailey, Chief Executive Officer, eSentire. “For 20 years, we have been detecting, containing and eliminating cyber threats and keeping our customers’ critical data and applications secure. As a member of the Alliance, we now have the opportunity to work alongside other top cloud security experts and contribute to the very important goal of ensuring that the cloud is safe for all businesses and individuals.”

Organizations are faced with a constant stream of cyber threats from nation states and for-profit threat actors. Simultaneously, they’re challenged to find enough cybersecurity talent to fill critical internal security roles. eSentire assumes that burden for organizations — stopping breaches, containing threats, and minimizing business risk. eSentire's cloud-native MDR services give customers around-the-clock, proactive threat hunting across their networks, endpoints, cloud, and hybrid environments, eradicating the blind spots traditional technologies miss and safeguarding all aspects of their business. Its comprehensive cloud security solution stops attacks across both infrastructure and applications, actively managing enterprises’ cloud security posture, detecting emerging threat tactics, and, unlike other cloud security providers, rapidly remediating critical cloud misconfigurations and neutralizing attackers.

“We’re extremely pleased to have eSentire join the CSA and share the expertise that comes from being a leader in the MDR space,” said Jim Reavis, co-founder and CEO, Cloud Security Alliance. “Increasingly, organizations are realizing the benefits of moving to the cloud and are taking advantage of more agile and technology-driven environments. The best practices gleaned from eSentire’s holistic approach to security will contribute greatly toward creating a more secure IT environment.”

eSentire protects the critical data and applications of over 940 organizations in 69 countries from current and emerging cyber threats. Its award-winning managed detection and response services consist of the patented, multi-signal correlation capabilities of the company’s Atlas Extended Detection and Response (XDR) cloud platform, 24x7 threat monitoring, real-time cyber hunting led by experts and automated threat response capabilities.
