Making Businesses Resilient

Iraklis Mathiopoulos, Chief of Services

Following the rising incidents of cyber-attacks and IT outages worldwide, we at OBRELA aim to proactively engage with our valued customers and stakeholders who are getting concerned over the growing cyber threat landscape. We employ best practices and international standards to minimize technology risks and ensure CYBER RESILIENCE.

At OBRELA our mission is to ‘keep your business in business’.

Our MDR offering serves as the core for a multi-layered, defense-in-depth architecture, collecting and centrally managing security related data from multiple sources and independently of your underlying technology stack. Leveraging a centralized, multitenant cloud- native PAAS we dynamically protect our clients by identifying, analyzing, predicting and preventing cyber threats in real time

We operate within a technology ecosystem that blends commercial, proprietary, and open-source components, supported by global OEM and vendor agreements.

As part of those agreements, OBRELA continues to support and maintain all existing features of its XDR stack.

How our clients benefit

OBRELA remains responsible for the management and continuous improvement of our technology stack and its components. We are dedicated to identifying and integrating the best and most advanced technologies in our technology stack to ensure your security needs and that there is continuous improvement in your security posture without adding complexity on your end.

We uphold strict SLAs and KPIs to deliver Cybersecurity as a Service: Technology enabled services based on scalable pure service plays underpinned by Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and engineered to provide value with a technology agnostic approach.

Reasons why clients are covered

Obrela clients are protected from technology risks associated with vendor failures and/or incidents affecting vendor technologies that are part of our ecosystem.

Engineered by design on a defense-in-depth principle our stack allows continuity of visibility and readiness and ensures cyber resilience when parts of our architecture or their security stack fails.

Our Open XDR capability allows OBRELA to manage multiple XDR/EDR solutions and seamlessly integrate with a wide variety of security products. With scalability across on-premise, hybrid, cloud, and multi-cloud architectures, Obrela provides maximum visibility to detect, investigate, and respond to suspicious and malicious activity that may impact your organization.

This ensures our Client’s security posture remains robust and mitigates risks posed by external factors and individual vendor failures. Our proactive approach to risk management safeguards their operations, giving them peace of mind amidst industry and vendor changes.

Rest assured, your experience with OBRELA remains our top priority.

Here’s why:

  • Managed Complexity: Our proprietary Swordfish platform and unified service delivery fabric manage these complexities, allowing us to provide enhanced services without operational disruptions.
  • Open XDR Capability: Our open XDR (Extended Detection and Response) capability ensures interoperability with third-party platforms, enabling seamless integration with other technologies. This ensures that any transition is smooth and maintain the high level of security and service organisations expect.
  • Service based on SLA: The Service Level Agreement (SLA) with customers ensures that they continue to receive the same level of service and support to which they are accustomed and entitled to.
  • Seamless Technology Transitions: Any technological changes for in-scope services, updates or transitions (if and when required) are being handled internally by OBRELA, ensuring they are seamless and transparent.

Operations unaffected

Our operations and service delivery are fully integrated and managed through the Swordfish unified fabric. The advanced SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) capabilities of Swordfish effectively abstract our operators and Blue Team from the underlying technology, XDR stack and analytics layers. This architecture ensures that our teams can operate efficiently and securely, regardless of any changes, failures or updates to the underlying technology stack.

By utilizing Swordfish, we maintain consistency, continuity and stability in our service delivery, ensuring that external changes do not impact on our ability to protect and serve your organization. This robust integration and management approach highlights our commitment to delivering seamless and reliable cybersecurity solutions.
