Fri, 26th Apr 2024

Provider of global cybersecurity solutions, Smarttech247, recently announced a strategic collaboration with SentinelOne, a global company specialising in AI-powered security. This partnership aims to deliver superior managed detection and response (MDR) services aimed specifically at small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

In an effort to offer the most advanced threat detection, analysis, and response capabilities available in the market, Smarttech247 plans to integrate its innovative VisionX platform with the SentinelOne Singularity Platform. This collaboration is intended to cater to the needs of mid-market customers both in Europe and the US.

Smarttech247 is a global company that specialises in cybersecurity, providing cutting-edge solutions to protect organisations against cyber threats. With a focus on innovation and customer-centricity, Smarttech247 offers a range of services, including managed security, threat intelligence, and incident response.

Raluca Saceanu, Chief Executive Officer of Smarttech247, said, "By combining Smarttech247's expertise in managed security services with SentinelOne's innovative and market-leading AI-powered technology, we are revolutionising how organisations defend against cyber threats."

Saceanu went on to emphasise that their "joint solution empowers security teams with the tools and intelligence needed to proactively identify and mitigate threats with machine speed, ultimately strengthening their overall security posture."

To enhance Smarttech 247’s MDR offering, SentinelOne's Purple AI security analyst will be playing a critical role. Purple AI is hailed as a transformative technology designed to unlock the full potential of security teams by simplifying and accelerating threat hunting, investigations, and response.

Smarttech247 and SentinelOne aim to keep organisations a step ahead of cyber adversaries by providing comprehensive, AI-driven managed detection and response solutions ensuring protection across the entire enterprise.

SentinelOne specialises in AI-powered security. The company's Singularity Platform is designed to detect, prevent, and respond to cyber attacks at machine speed, empowering organisations to secure endpoints, cloud workloads, containers, identities, and mobile and network-connected devices with speed, accuracy and simplicity. Global enterprises, including Fortune 10, Fortune 500, and Global 2000 companies, as well as prominent governments, are amongst the company's key customers. 

Brian Lanigan, Senior Vice-President, Global Partner Ecosystem at SentinelOne, stated that "threat actors do not discriminate." He further asserted the need for "innovative, intelligent solutions that allow organisations of all sizes to detect, respond to and prevent attacks before they happen." Lanigan believes that in partnership with Smarttech247, SentinelOne can achieve this aim.

This collaboration between Smarttech247 and SentinelOne is indicative of the ever-increasing demand for intelligent, AI-driven security solutions. As cyber threats become more nuanced and sophisticated, these solutions will play a significant role in strengthening business defences, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises.
