The second product group, Senate, includes a compliance solution and cyber rating system that accurately monitors a business' ecosystem and provides improved management of their assets. Businesses can use Senate to properly assess the data exchange between their third-party vendors and measure the probable financial impact should a data breach occurs. Senate can also be used to grade vendors based on their technical cyber risk score and compliance level. Therefore, businesses can facilitate a dynamic and increased situational awareness along with mitigation strategies aligned with each vendor's security vulnerabilities. The final, and the centerpiece of, Castle Shield's offering is a multi-tenant SIEM logging and analytics software called Legion. It is specifically engineered for managed service providers (MSPs) and managed security service providers (MSSPs). Built as a functional business solution, Legion helps MSPs and MSSPs effortlessly take in disparate data from multiple sources and correlate it with the clients' data sets. With a single pane of glass analysis to monitor and handle numerous environments, MSPs/MSSPs can visualize and mitigate threats across their distributed networks. Going a step ahead of other SIEMs in the market, Legion also provides much more data telemetry with the help of Fides and Senate. Together, the trio of solutions holds the ability to thwart cybersecurity threats and ensure enterprise-wide compliance rather than just reporting the security information events. As a result, they improve an MSP/MSSP's customer satisfaction level and control over their business.Crafting Tangible BenefitsSuch an approach to cybersecurity has undoubtedly helped Castle Shield become a burgeoning market leader in this space. As an example, Castle Shield is working with a new client who is in the managed security services provider (MSSP) space. The client is running Castle Shield's SIEM product to keep track of the security information events occurring across the client's enterprise. As security information events are aggregated at the client's site and data center, the information is then sent to the Castle Shield cloud-based SIEM server. As an extra layer of security, Castle Shield uses its Aeolus VPN data-in-motion product to establish a secure, encrypted connection between the client's server and the Castle Shield cloud server. This way, the client's security information events are kept safe and secure as the information is in transit between servers."At Castle Shield, we believe strongly that sensitive and confidential data should be encrypted as much and often as possible. Even security information events should be encrypted before they are transmitted to the collection server so that the data is not compromised," says Mattox.Striding ahead with similar success stories, Castle Shield aims to bring quantum-resistant data security solutions to the masses in a very cost-effective way. Castle Shield is actively seeking to help healthcare providers, doctors, and nurses communicate safely with each other with its secure, private, and safe chat apps. At the same time, the company ensures the healthcare providers stay HIPAA compliant. Castle Shield is all set to expand in the financial as well as legal sectors. "Our roadmap consists of going beyond the normal industries that are concerned about data security and target industries that may not be thinking as much about the security and privacy of their data at this point," concludes Mattox. The company has developed a "quantum-resistant architecture" (QRA) that enables its clients to deploy quantum-resistant cybersecurity solutions at a cost similar to any other contemporary cybersecurity product
