SECURITY

Cybersecurity is a requirement, not an option.

Ransomware and cybercrime is at an all-time high and getting tougher to prevent. Xterra has a Security First philosophy and we put that philosophy into action by investing time, money, and people into defining and deploying a NIST-based security framework. Security is a journey, not a destination, and we will help guide you and your team in securing your organizations’ computers, networks, programs, data, and people to keep them safe and secure.

Endpoint Security

All Endpoint protection is not made the same. Xterra uses best of breed technologies for both traditional Anti-malware and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) tools. Ensure that your Endpoint security acts as your cybersecurity’s frontline, helping to secure your computers, servers, and cloud systems 24x7x365.

  • Traditional signature-based and Next Generation endpoint protection tools
  • MDR connected to SIEM and 24×7 Security Operations Center for immediate response to threats available
  • Real-time alerts when malware is detected, automated quarantine, and manual intervention by an Xterra technician if automation fails.

Security Awareness Training

Organizations of every size are at risk from nation-states, ransomware, bad actors, as well as malicious or even accidental insider threats. Of all successful cyber attacks, 95% are caused by human error. Our in-person training, live webinars, recorded training, and simulated phishing produce actionable awareness on the fundamentals of information security, social engineering, malware, and industry-specific compliance topics. As a result, we’ll increase your staff’s resilience to cyber attacks in the office, on the move, and working from home.

  • Train your employees to be a Human Firewall – engage their understanding of security to help them see the scams, fakes, and tricks used by the bad guys
  • Engaging, personalized, live security awareness training for your executives and your team to bring everyone up to the same security awareness baseline
  • New Hire onboarding training and support
  • Monthly video training and newsletters on new security concepts and issues
  • Simulated phishing with embedded learning, tracking, and oversight
  • Monthly security training analysis and updates for management to track compliance

Protective Domain Name System (DNS) Security

Even if you don’t know what Protective DNS is – The National Security Agency (NSA); the Cybersecurity, Infrastructure, and Security Agency (CISA); and the Department of Defense (DoD) all recommend using a Protective DNS platform for security. Unfortunately, this basic security technology is missing from the tech stack of many organizations. Xterra helps you take advantage of this service by layering in Protective DNS with our operational maturity – we protect roaming laptops, company networks, and guide users on setting this up on their home networks. This solution provides another layer of protection beyond the typical firewall or antivirus by foiling dangerous requests before compromise can happen.

  • Protective DNS security solutions block requests to malware, ransomware, phishing, and botnets before a connection is even established
  • Provides protection and visibility while in the office, roaming, and from home
  • Xterra analyses DNS reports to search for indicators of compromise that may have avoided antivirus/antimalware scans
  • Monthly reporting provided on blocked requests and malware attempts

Dark Web Monitoring

The Dark Web is where cybercriminals go to buy drugs, guns, malware, and your company’s credentials. It’s the marketplace for your organization’s breached data and the feeding ground for new scams and malware. Thousands of email addresses, passwords and other sensitive data land on the Dark Web every day, creating risk for your business — and you may not even know about a vulnerability until it’s too late. Xterra will contact users immediately if their credentials or personally identifiable information has been found on the Dark Web. This provides an opportunity to change passwords, avoid social media scams, and trace back data breaches.

  • Identify compromised data before a serious breach occurs
  • Our platform monitors hidden chat rooms, unindexed sites, private websites, P2P (peer-to-peer ) networks, IRC (internet relay chat) channels, social media platforms, black market sites, and over 640,000+ botnets
  • The Xterra Service Desk will contact the user immediately if their credentials are found on the Dark Web
  • Monthly reporting of activity found on the Dark Web related to your domains

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Traditional passwords aren’t secure enough anymore. A Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solution can block over 99% of account compromise incidents. It’s why your bank texts you a code when you need to see your account balance. Your identity is valuable and should be protected by more than just a password. Add MFA to every login to make your accounts more secure from compromised passwords, hacking attempts, and impersonation scams.

  • Protect accounts with more than a password – use your mobile phone, text messaging, geo-location, and even biometrics to secure your identity
  • Protect your Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Cloud File Sharing, VPN, and your Line of Business SaaS applications
  • Backup and Restore your MFA logins and centralize your MFA solution instead of using multiple Authenticators
  • Xterra will provision, manage, and help audit MFA usage to protect assets
