The word Brandvakt means “Firewatch”. The Brandvakt ensures the fire burns smoothly, doesn’t spread, contain it if something goes wrong and ensures the safety of everyone – That is how we see our role. We draw the parallels between the Firewatch and with cyber – and information security, and we recognize that mitigating security risks and the ability to resolve problems when and if they occur is critical.
Endpoints, networks and user activity need to be monitored for indicators of compromise. Our security operations center is always hunting and responding to any suspicious activity – 24/7.
Brandvakt Academy specialises in cybersecurity training, recognised for its commitment to empowering professionals with the skills they need to face the complex challenges of today’s digital landscape
– Luiz Coutinho, CEO Brandvakt Group
Telecom companies have long been a high value target for cybercriminals and nation state actors because they maintain and operate critical communications infrastructure which is used to transmit and store large amounts of private and sensitive data – on top of this, ensuring customer Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is of highest importance.
Financial institutions are a leading target of cyber attacks. Banks are where the money is, and for cybercriminals, attacking banks offers multiple avenues for profit through extortion, theft, and fraud, while nation-states and hacktivists also target the financial sector for political and ideological leverage. Regulators are taking notice, and implementing new controls to mitigate cyber risks addressing the growing threat to the banks they supervise.
