INNOVATIONS 9 www.managedITmag.co.uk Unique insights CREST-accredited penetration tester and managed security service provider Cybaverse says the launch of Cybaverse. ai makes it easier for MSPs to identify and remediate threats before they cause harm to customers. The platform sits above client security integrations, giving MSPs a unified view of the cybersecurity efforts of their customers and the ability to access security dashboards for all their clients without having to navigate multiple platforms. Within the platform, MSPs can view real-time data on penetration testing, vulnerability scans and regulatory compliance and access a marketplace where they can buy cybersecurity products and services for clients. Oliver Spence, CEO of Cybaverse, said: “We started Cybaverse as a boutique cyber security consultancy and it has evolved into a leading MSSP. During this journey we have gained unique insights into customer pain points that we are tackling with Cybaverse.ai. Our platform offers MSPs a flexible way to manage security for their clients. It’s a full-service platform that caters perfectly to the needs of MSPs and their customers.” https://www.cybaverse.co.uk/ Remote control Utelogy Corporation, provider of an enterprise-grade software platform for managing, monitoring, controlling and automating connected workspaces, is enhancing customers’ ability to monitor smart buildings and collaborative workspaces through the integration of its platform with Neat video devices.
