Cyber Hygiene
/in By Use Case /by Rob SmelikCyber Hygiene
Know your security posture
Cyber hygiene is the foundation of your cyber balance sheet
What if all your company’s cybersecurity tools could talk? What would they say to the teams managing them? What would they tell the CISO or compliance team? How are your tools and the management of your tools impacting business outcomes? Tools have a voice, but the challenge is that most security and risk executives simply aren’t listening to them. Not because they don’t want to, but because they don’t have the means to do so.
Organizations add tool after tool to secure their data, systems, and users. But instead of increased security, they’re left with misconfigured, repetitive, or siloed tools and limited visibility and control over their environments. This leads to poor cyber hygiene and creates critical security vulnerabilities, especially as telework surges.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Security tools—when correctly configured, maintained, and monitored—are essential to proper cyber hygiene. And just a few simple actions can help you maximize ROI on current tools, start continuously monitoring those tools, and gain comprehensive visibility and control of your network and endpoints. All of which leads to better cyber hygiene and empowers you with the visibility, control, and confidence to maintain and continually advance your cybersecurity posture.

Integrated Risk Management
/in By Use Case /by Rob SmelikIntegrated Risk Management
Enterprise-wide visibility and collaboration improves decision making
Risky business is bad business
Integrated risk management (IRM) aims to combine processes and technologies so that organizations can make better decisions and improve performance when it comes to managing risk. While enterprise risk management (ERM), operational risk management (ORM), and IT risk management and cybersecurity are typically siloed, IRM integrates them to more effectively mitigate risk. Today’s convergence of physical and technological risks requires the simplification and automation that IRM delivers.
Merlin’s IRM solutions provide a clearer view of organizational-wide risk. Integrating strategic, operational, and technological risk increases efficiency and helps achieve stronger business performance, resilience, assurance, and compliance. Our mission is to empower every organization with IRM technology that scales for their risk management maturity level.

Remote Workers
/in By Use Case /by Rob SmelikRemote Workers
Secure access and optimize performance for your workforce
Support remote workers, wherever they may be
A shift in workforce arrangements means that organizations must secure remote workers and anyone else who requires access. That is a challenge as the recent rapid demand for such arrangements has stressed legacy remote access systems, which are not designed to secure remote workers, protect endpoints, or remotely access applications. But by implementing a zero trust architecture, enterprises can adapt to heavily remote workforces, support existing infrastructures, and enhance security all at once.
Merlin helps organizations design secure support for a variety of needs and ensures remote worker identities are properly authenticated. We do this while utilizing current VPNs and existing infrastructure, meaning there’s no need to rip and replace legacy systems. See how we can help your organization secure remote workers with solutions that solve immediate needs today while enabling you to scale and adapt for the future.

Zero Trust
/in By Use Case /by Rob SmelikZero Trust
Achieve zero trust architecture with one vendor
Leapfrog from legacy to zero trust
You know that traditional network perimeter defense strategies are no longer enough to protect organizations. That’s why you are adopting a zero trust, identity-centric approach to protection. But zero trust isn’t achieved through just one technology or tool, instead, it’s a blend of solutions that work together to accomplish this widely recognized framework for a proper defense.
At Merlin, our holistic approach is uniquely suited for zero trust. We believe that a successful zero trust architecture (ZTA) follows five core tenets: identity as a perimeter, least privilege, intrinsic workload security, micro-segmentation, and integration and automation. Our solutions help organizations adopt these core tenets on their incremental journey to achieving full ZTA.
Risk tolerance, speed of execution, and breadth of implementation will vary for every enterprise. No matter where your organization might be in achieving zero trust maturity, we equip you with the solutions you need at the pace and scope you desire. Our portfolio of best-in-class and emerging technologies will secure every layer of your IT stack—from endpoints and applications to data and users—in alignment with zero trust.

Security Operations
/in By Category /by Website AdministratorSecurity Operations
Automate tasks by leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to achieve more efficient, secure operations.
Automate operations for improved protection and control
Securing sensitive data from cyberattacks and breaches is difficult and complex for all organizations. Today’s enterprises handle huge amounts of data, making them an attractive target for bad actors who exploit vulnerable and legacy systems to gain access and inflict damage. Detecting, analyzing, responding to, reporting on, and preventing cybersecurity incidents is the role of security operations center (SOC) analysts, and the job is overwhelming in today’s threat landscape. It requires tight visibility, control, and collaboration. Through AI and ML, Merlin’s secure operations, compliance & monitoring solutions optimize your security operations and improve mean time to detection and response (MTTD/MTTR).
Simplify operations to focus on your most critical security priorities
SOC analysts rely heavily on a variety of security tools to help them monitor and manage risk in an environment of rapidly evolving security threats and compliance requirements. Without continuously monitoring these tools, however, systems are left vulnerable to risk and non-compliance. In fact, through 2023, Gartner predicts that 99 percent of firewall breaches will be caused by firewall misconfigurations, not firewall flaws. If this is true for firewalls, what about the other tools you have implemented and are accountable for?
Executives are clamoring for an easy way to keep a finger on the pulse of their organizations’ security hygiene. They want to ensure the tools they have are doing what they are designed to do, and they also want to understand the business impacts, in terms of dollars, that security risks pose. Intelligence, automation, encrypted communications, and other technologies need to work together to deliver an integrated solution that confidently secures operations. We are seeing the convergence of cybersecurity and operations, and this evolution benefits both the business and IT. Ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical business applications should not be the sole responsibility of a department; rather it’s a responsibility that’s placed on IT as a whole.

Cloud & App Security
/in By Category /by Website AdministratorCloud & App Security
Secure cloud access and protect critical applications across your cloud infrastructure.
Be confident in your move to the cloud
Cost savings and increased agility have led to greater adoption of cloud-based applications and more movement of workloads to the cloud. But entities face several risks to their cloud environments, ranging anywhere from insider threats to attacks from nation-state sponsored hackers looking to access sensitive information. That’s why proactive cloud security starts with understanding every detail of who is accessing your cloud applications and data. It begins with baking security into your applications—a focus on DevSecOps—and a cloud security strategy that aligns with zero trust security principles. How you secure cloud access and those applications requires innovative technologies that work together to deliver an integrated, effective solution.
Properly secure apps and enforce zero trust principles
Organizations have come to realize the strategic benefits of the cloud. As such, applications and workloads have shifted rapidly to the cloud. But as applications move out of the data center and into the cloud, and as cloud-native and DevOps take hold, many organizations are limited in their ability to see, control, and protect applications.
For example, mobile and remote users may be accessing critical applications in the cloud from coffee shops, airports, or elsewhere. How should organizations tighten the reins on securing access to these cloud applications while enforcing least privilege access and strengthening the security of the application itself? How do you ensure compliance and governance of your hybrid or multi-cloud environment? Today’s multi-cloud world with zero trust requires fully integrated solutions that enhance visibility and control while enforcing zero trust principles. As you modernize your applications for the cloud, you need to ensure that security is integrated into your development processes and IT operations.

Network Visibility & Control
/in By Category /by Website AdministratorNetwork Visibility & Control
Stay ahead of threats and cybercriminals with advanced, automated solutions.
Your network has evolved. Has your network security?
Who is accessing your network? Without a clear answer to that essential question, IT leaders are already a step behind. Whether it is employees, contractors, supply chain partners, or others, organizations of all kinds face unique threat challenges. But threat detection and response performed through a complicated collection of point tools, and with intelligence stitched together by analysts, can be burdensome and manual work that does not scale with today’s threat landscape. Network access and threat detection and response must be holistic and rely on advanced analysis, AI, machine learning, shared intelligence, and automated protections to keep you at least one step ahead of attackers, and able to effectively respond to any successful attacks.
Protecting every layer of the IT stack
There’s no longer a single defensible boundary between an organization’s internal assets and the outside world. This is why enterprises need to double down on ensuring that their networks are being accessed securely—by employees, contractors, supply chain partners, and others.
The Merlin solutions incorporate a defense-in-depth strategy that further extends to all the layers of the IT stack. We leverage AI/ML technologies and policy-driven frameworks to quickly identify, detect, and respond to network threats. We do this with the automation and orchestration that are essential to meet the demands on Security Operations teams. Effective network access and threat detection and response solutions include:

Endpoint Protection
/in By Category /by Website AdministratorEndpoint Protection
Enterprises need comprehensive visibility and control over the explosion of managed and unmanaged endpoint devices on their networks.
Holistic protection for managed and unmanaged endpoints
Endpoint security has always been a concern for organizations. As their workforce and business processes have changed, their need for modernized endpoint security has grown. Remote work is now commonplace and increasingly more data is accessed in the cloud. There’s also an explosion of new devices on networks, with BYOD, IoT, and Shadow IT being persistent challenges. Traditional endpoint security is no longer enough. It’s time for a holistic approach that enables full endpoint visibility, control, and compliance.
Comprehensive oversight of every device in your environment
Endpoint management and security are fundamentally changing. As IoT, mobile, and cloud continue to transform the network perimeter, visibility, and control of all the endpoints in your organization have become a challenge. Advanced persistent threats, ransomware, and rogue peripheral devices can go undetected by traditional endpoint security solutions and pose a real risk to organizations. The endpoint, however, can become the smart, central control point to implement device, application, and data security. Endpoints provide telemetry that allows IT to quickly identify, detect, and respond to threats.
But a fragmented security approach for all the endpoints in your enterprise can make it extremely challenging to maintain the endpoint visibility, control, and compliance that’s required to mitigate threats. This is evidenced by the continued success of phishing, ransomware, and other threats and attacks.
It takes holistic and innovative solutions to stay on top of endpoint management and protection. Effective endpoint management and security require full visibility and control of all the endpoints in your environment. Our solutions provide:
