So, what is Effective Security Observability (ESO)?
Effective Security Observability (ESO) is KPMG’s approach to fully integrate security solutions within your cyber operations, risk processes and response capabilities. By maximizing the combined value of technology, people, and processes, we can make detection processes more effective, eliminate noise, and focus on cost savings and efficiencies.
Vectra’s industry leading Attack Signal Intelligence technology fits perfectly into these objectives through a KPMG tailored & cost-effective security operating model. This enables a streamlined identification and tracking of advanced threats and minimized response times. In other words: eliminating ‘unknowns,’ and enhancing your effectiveness
