2022: Launch of the Russian vulnerability control service Vulnerability Management

The company Rostelecom-Solar"" announced on July 12, 2022 the launch of the first Russian control service (vulnerabilities Vulnerability Management) within the Solar MSS ecosystem. The solution is provided from. Rostelecom National Cloud Platform In addition to the instrumental, as scannings infrastructures part of the service, customers receive full expert support from Rostelecom-Solar in terms of prioritization and elimination of found shortcomings - taking into account the current landscape. The cyber threats scanner certified solution RedCheck of the domestic vendor "" is used as.ALTEXSOFT

Customers can connect to Vulnerability Management within 1 day, and expert results are available in most cases after 3 days. The solution is focused primarily on the mass segment of medium and large businesses from retail, agriculture, industry, fuel and energy complex, finance, medicine and other industries.

Vulnerability management is the foundation of information security. At the same time, only large companies can afford to acquire an expensive scanner and hire Vulnerability Management experts , without whom it is impossible to correctly interpret the scan results  , and most importantly, to implement compensatory measures. For organizations with a limited budget for information security , this approach is not available, and the only acceptable solution is the scanning service, which includes not only the technology supplied from the cloud, but also the expertise of the service provider. However, with the departure of a number of Western vendors from Russia and against the background of an unprecedented increase in mass cyber attacks, many of these companies were under attack. The launch of the import-substituted Vulnerability Management service from Rostelecom-Solar was a response to the urgent need of the market.

The use of a cloud vulnerability control service will take care of information security issues not only for large organizations, but also for medium-sized businesses, which are becoming an easy target for numerous cyber attacks. Expertise of leading specialists "Rostelecom-Solar" will help such companies to qualitatively investigate and increase the level of their security, and the high speed of connecting the service will make it possible to quickly respond to current cyber calls,
noted Maxim Bronzinsky, head of Vulnerability Management at Rostelecom-Solar.

Vulnerability Management includes an inventory of the customer's infrastructure, direct scanning, and expert processing of the results. Scanning detects external vulnerabilities in systems that are exploited in the vast majority of mass attacks. Tool scanning data is processed by Rostelecom-Solar analysts, who prioritize the vulnerabilities found (including taking into account knowledge of current threats), as well as prepare a plan and specific recommendations for their elimination. At the exit, the customer receives three types of reports: for business (with a description of potential risks to the company), expert (for information security) and technical (for IT).

RedCheck in the hands of qualified specialists is able not only to solve problems of the Vulnerability Management class, but also to provide a full cycle of security management of the enterprise IT infrastructure. We consider it our mission to minimize the risk of implementing security threats, so we are pleased to support projects such as Security as a Service. Together with Rostelecom-Solar, we created the first domestic cloud vulnerability control platform that will allow more companies to minimize threats to business,
said Sergey Uzdemir, Deputy General Director for IT at ALTEXSOFT.

Opening of the Solar MSS cybersecurity services expertise center in Samara

Rostelecom-Solar, a subsidiary of Rostelecom, on September 7, 2021 announced the opening in Samara of the Solar MSS cybersecurity services expertise center and announced the transformation of this ecosystem. The center will provide cyber protection for regional state organizations, as well as large and medium-sized businesses in various constituent entities of the federation.

Among the key customers of Solar MSS are regional government agencies, banks, retail, industry, power, transport, logistics, educational and healthcare institutions, etc. The transfer of expertise to the region made it possible to form an optimal approach to service pricing without loss of quality. Now Solar MSS services have become more accessible to a wider range of companies, including those who, some time ago, could not afford highly professional protection against attacks, the company emphasized. At the same time, compared to the projects of classical procurement and the introduction of the same technologies, the service model not only saves companies from large capital expenditures at the start, but also provides savings on average of about 40% on the horizon of five years.

According to Igor Lyapunov, Rostelecom's vice president for information security, almost 40% of medium-sized business organizations faced cyber incidents in 2020, while due to budget and personnel shortages, they were unable to provide full protection. Existing service offerings on the market tend to be a suite of disparate technologies without analytical support. This approach does not solve the problems of companies and actually leaves them alone with pandemic attacks and complex threats that even medium-sized businesses and small regional government organizations face.

A key feature of Solar MSS for customers is an approach focused on solving the ultimate goal of the organization in the field of cybersecurity, and not on point-based technology delivery. Customers receive comprehensive cyber protection of business assets through an external expert team through a "single window" of interaction, and can easily control and evaluate the effectiveness of services. Security policies of various protection technologies are synchronized due to the interconnection of these technologies, and analytical reports are generated in the user's personal account to assess the quality of comprehensive threat protection.

"The transformation of the Solar MSS ecosystem has made it a one-size-fits-all solution for ensuring the cybersecurity of regional organizations of large and medium size. The main value that the customer receives is the round-the-clock cyber protection of not specific objects, but business assets in their entirety, taking into account the threats that are relevant to him, - said Konstantin Kamanin, director of product portfolio development at Solar MSS of Rostelecom-Solar. - Support for Solar MSS services is provided by a dedicated regional team of experts with specialized specialization. At the same time, the ecosystem is constantly developing taking into account emerging cyber threats: we regularly test modern technologies in our laboratory and work out new solutions for customers.

According to the Center for Countering Cyber ​ ​ Attacks Solar JSOC for 2020, most often cyber attacks in the regions are associated with the spread (malware including -) and virusesencoders the use of web vulnerabilities. Depending on the region, the proportion of each of these types of incidents is 30-40%. Therefore, Rostelecom-Solar experts have supplemented the existing portfolio with turnkey solutions (bundles) for comprehensive protection of online resources, countering to phishing and ransomware viruses, as well as building centers. State system of detection, prevention and elimination of consequences of computer attacks Each of the bundles is provided in three versions - from the basic one, which provides the necessary minimum protection and requires minimal investment, to the professional one, which takes into account all attack vectors.

To protect key state infrastructures, a separate comprehensive proposal has been formed to ensure the security of the entire region and all state facilities and turnkey systems. This approach implements a high level of layered protection and takes into account the requirements of regulators, noted in Rostelecom-Solar.

Thanks to changes in the technological component of the Solar MSS platform, the delivery time for services has been reduced. As of September 2021, 70% of them are available contactless (from the cloud) and connect in 2-3 days, which allows you to implement protection even during an evolving attack. For perimeter security solutions that require devices to be installed at the customer's site, connectivity speeds have increased more than 2-fold by increasing the number of warehouses with equipment and significantly automating the deployment process. At the same time, the number of connection schemes for such services increased to 20 possible options, which allows seamless integration of them into virtually any customer infrastructure. In addition, the updated Solar MSS network architecture now makes it possible to connect solutions from any vendor, which means to reduce the risks associated with sanctions.

Add Sandbox Service

Rostelecom-Solar on March 31, 2021 announced the launch of the Sandbox service - to protect against complex and previously unknown threats implemented through mail and web traffic. Sandbox has complemented the Solar MSS line of managed cybersecurity services. Check Point SandBlast provides 98.4% user security. At the same time, on the horizon of 7 years, the service is on average 30% cheaper for companies than their own solution. Read more here.
