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.

SOC Automation
/in By Use Case /by Rob SmelikSOC Automation
Leverage automation and AI/ML to modernize security operations
Maximize protection and improve productivity
Today’s analysts and others in security operations centers (SOC) deal with massive levels of complexity. This complexity impacts visibility into the user and device landscape, the network, and the security tools available for risk mitigation. Security analysts are simply overworked and overwhelmed with alert fatigue and trying to keep up with an everchanging threat landscape.
At Merlin, we help organizations modernize their SOCs. The future SOC is a fusion center of people, process, and technology. It simplifies the view of threats and vulnerabilities. It leverages automation and AI/ML for faster detection and response, and to offload manual processes from humans so they can focus instead on informed, proactive investigations, remediation, and other mission-critical security priorities. It features telemetry across various tools and contextual awareness, at all times.
SOC automation is a game-changer in the battle to secure sensitive data and keep criminals out of the network. Find out how Merlin can help you optimize resources and minimize risk by reducing mean time to detection (MTTD) and mean time to response (MTTR).

Identity-centric security for the enterprise
IT modernization is driving security professionals to re-think how they are protecting their systems and data. Remote and mobile workers are increasingly accessing data and applications in the cloud from devices that may be outside of their organizations’ visibility and control. Malicious insiders or even unsuspecting ones may be accessing and exfiltrating data without their knowledge.

Identity-centric security is critical to protecting sensitive enterprise systems, assets, and information from unauthorized access or use by only allowing authorized access to:
Effective IAM solutions include single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and privileged access management (PAM) capabilities that enable security professionals to:

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.
