"In this time of increasing global attacks, it is critical to have around-the-clock eyes on the network.”
— David McLaughlin, President and CEO, Columbia Advisory Group Tweet
DALLAS, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, June 13, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Dallas-based Columbia Advisory Group (CAG), a leading provider of IT Managed and Cybersecurity Services, today announced the expansion of its services via a partnership with Abacode, a leading provider of managed Extended Detection and Response (XDR).
The partnership between CAG and Abacode will allow clients to one-stop-shop for specialized IT Managed Services, Governance, Risk Management, and Compliance (GRC), Virtual CISO services and managed XDR services to analyze data breaches as they occur.
As organizations face increasing threats of ransomware, data breach, and phishing, they must simultaneously upgrade their governance and compliance activities to minimize risk while simultaneously detecting and responding to breaches as they arise to understand, contain and prevent them. This capability requires increasingly scarce competent cybersecurity leadership and specialized, virtual Security Operations Center (vSOC) services that can investigate problems in real-time and provide visibility across the enterprise of controls compliance.
“Our many public-sector, educational, manufacturing, and health care clients already rely upon CAG for cybersecurity guidance and IT expertise. CAG is pleased to bolster our leading Cybersecurity practice by offering 24x7x365 SOC 2 Type 1 and 2 XDR services via our partner, Abacode. In this time of increasing global attacks, it is critical to have around-the-clock eyes on the network,” said David McLaughlin, President and CEO of Columbia Advisory Group.
