Your security tools are working. But who is reading their alerts at 2 a.m.?

Most organisations in Egypt have an IT team. Very few have a security team, and almost none can cover nights, weekends and holidays. Experienced analysts are scarce and get hired away. The tools you already pay for raise more alerts than anyone can read, and attacks tend to happen when nobody is looking: evenings, weekends and holidays.

Assume Breach starts from a different question. Not "how do we keep every attacker out?" but "what happens in the hour after one gets in?" Thinking like the adversary shows you the gaps a defender's checklist never does.

THE STORY SO FAR:

Chapter 1, Egypt Under Attack, showed who is targeting the Egyptian market and how.
Chapter 2, Inbox Under Siege, closed the biggest door: email.
Chapter 3, Identity is the New Perimeter, followed identity wherever it goes.
Chapter 4 asks what happens when something gets through anyway.

THE ANSWER: MANAGED DETECTION AND RESPONSE

An MDR service puts a team of security experts behind the tools you already run, watching around the clock, so you don't have to build and staff a SOC. If you use one of the platforms below, you keep your stack. There is nothing to rip out and replace.

Endpoints: CrowdStrike Falcon, SonicWall Capture Client, SentinelOne, Sophos, Microsoft Defender, Cylance
Cloud apps: Microsoft 365, NinjaOne, Google Workspace, Dropbox, Slack, Salesforce
Network: SonicWall, Cisco, Fortinet, Barracuda, Palo Alto, Sophos

What you get: alert management, log retention, threat hunting, threat mitigation and reporting. Escalations during Egyptian business hours come from our Cairo analysts, in Arabic. You decide how much authority the SOC has: contain threats immediately, or ask you first.

No annual contracts. No minimums. Start with the endpoints you have and scale up or down as you grow.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
IT managers, security leads, CIOs, CISOs and business owners at SMEs and mid-market organisations that have no security team, or a team that can't cover every hour of the day.
