Niu Solutions, a provider of secure cloud solutions to regulated industries, has formed a strategic partnership with managed security provider Alert Logic.
The partnership will see Niu Solutions extend its managed IT security suite with services that detect and protect clients’ critical IT environment with proactive response.
This approach will enable clients to bolster their security in line with best practices against a new wave of cyber threats and adopt compliance standards such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) more quickly.
Alert Logic will provide the proactive layer of security expertise over and above Niu Solutions’ industry-certified security controls to ensure clients are able to keep their data safe.
As a pioneer in Security-as-a-Service (SaaS), Alert Logic has more than a decade of experience providing organisations with cloud-native security solutions coupled with around the clock monitoring by security and compliance experts. Alongside PCI DSS compliance, Alert Logic can provide Niu Solutions’ customers with in-house threat intelligence capabilities, 24/7 monitoring and escalation capabilities, and integration between different security technologies.
Niu Solutions’ internal security experts and consultants will use their knowledge of regulated industries to provide contextual understanding of the end-to-end environment requirements to ensure a secure and compliant IT posture is in place.
Shaun Ledgerwood (pictured), chief executive, Niu Solutions, says: “Working within the mid-market sector, our customers are often challenged with either a resource or skills gap in the security space. As such, they rely on our services to provide consultancy around all areas of security and compliance, which helps them to translate the regulator’s demands into tangible controls. We are delighted to be able to offer this service with the support of Alert Logic, which brings vast experience and expertise in delivering a solution capable of securing environments of any size, in any context, whether they reside in the cloud, on premises or in a hybrid environment.”
