Analysts identify existing and potential threats using our four key processes:

• Proactive – anticipating what could happen before it does

• Pre-emptive – based on proactive findings, helping you to put in place measures to mitigate the vulnerabilities before they are exploited

• Discovery – find existing vulnerabilities and threats already deployed

• Remediate – offering advice and support for vulnerabilities that have been exploited

• We understand risk and the importance of protecting assets. We rely on this service to protect BT’s assets and reputation

• Our reports don’t just provide data, they offer contextual information based on the ‘so what?’ or ‘what if’ factors, applicable to your network

• We have established secure communities that share information globally within sectors. This means we have access to accurate intelligence enabling you to take defensive action faster.
