Zyston Client Program Managers Provide An Elite Standard Of Service That Sets Zyston Apart From Other MSSPs
Much like the cyber threat environment, Zyston is evolving, continually striving to meet the needs of today’s business environment.
We’ve recently expanded, adding critical new talent to our team; plus, we’re rolling out an exciting new feature that improves interactions between the client’s security team and the Zyston system. Our new Client Program Manager feature delivers a more customized, tailored approach to your needs, creating a compelling differentiator vs. competing MSSPs.
Zyston Client Program Manager
Our Client Program Managers (CPM) represents an elite standard of service among MSSPs. Each client is assigned a dedicated CPM to serve as an onsite or virtual point of contact, bridging the communication gap between a client’s information Security Group and the Zyston Security Operations Center. In essence, it’s a way for us to answer your needs more precisely and tailor our service to individual concerns and risk levels. In addition, a Zyston CPM is also responsible for reviewing security incidents, conducting a root cause analysis (RCA) and then ensuring that all security incidents are fully remediated. Other MSSPs simply send over alerts and leave it to your internal IT team to diagnose and remediate. Zyston isn’t like other MSSPs and with our Client Program Manager team we have the ability to go beyond the alert.
Ultimately, having a dedicated CPM is an extra layer of protection, ensuring no opportunities are overlooked and all incidents are fully diagnosed and remediated in order to keep your organization and its vital data secure.
We Start With The CyberCast Security Assessment
Zyston’s CyberCast Security Assessment delivers critical insights into your threat susceptibility. Through a combination of technical penetration testing and a detailed security assessment, CyberCast scores your security risk and compares your vulnerability against industry standards. Based on these results, we then establish an action plan to improve your score systematically.
Once your CyberCast is complete, the CPM leverages the intelligence contained in the report to prioritize and coordinate tactical reduction of organizational security risks.
We know that cybersecurity is never a “one-size-fits-all” solution. And while it might be tempting for your security team to go with an off-the-shelf solution, a more detailed approach will yield better results. Suffice to say, the less you have to focus on cybersecurity, the more time you’ll have to devote to other things. Zyston with CPM takes those worries off your plate, giving you and your IT team back their valuable time.
How Zyston With CPM Works
The Client Program Manager maintains regular contact with a client’s IT/Security teams in an effort to fully understand their security needs and expectations. Combining high-level cybersecurity expertise, business intelligence, and customer support at its best, they provide valuable feedback on a regular basis to ensure complete cybersecurity coverage and alignment across people, process, and technology, according to customer demands.
Zyston CPMs attend meetings, update upper managers on the status of important security findings, conduct root cause analyses (RCA’s) and closely collaborate with key employees to identify the best possible course of action as well as ensure full remediation of all incidents. It’s like having an extension of your IT team without the extra expense, as the service is built into the Zyston solution.
Filling The Gaps
In typical outsourced or managed services scenarios, there are often gaps that go unfilled because either the provider is not specifically connected to the customer or the customer doesn’t know the gap exists. If this was merely a customer service scenario, these shortfalls might amount to little more than an inconvenience, but since we’re talking about cybersecurity, there’s a lot more at stake. A simple oversight can multiply quickly in a threat environment, leading to data loss and impacting business continuity and reputation.
So, while your current MSSP system might offer better protection than you would have without, a little more attention to detail will improve its efficacy massively. In that sense, the value of having a single point of contact can’t be understated. Your CPM is 100% committed to ensuring your organization’s protection—you might think of them as your own personal protector, a trusted advisor who is (arguably) just as passionate about your success as you are.
Zyston Ranch Access
We realize that top-level cybersecurity is an ongoing process and that improvements don’t happen in a vacuum. As a result, all Zyston CPMs have access to the Zyston Ranch, a combination of the Security Operations Center (SOC) and the Advisory Group, providing them with unprecedented access to expert guidance and advice on how best to execute the role and responsibility of their position.
The CPM leverages insights gained from the Zyston SOC and translates them back to the customer in ways they can understand. In essence, they act as the point person between highly technical security operations and your on-premise team to ensure success.
CPM Success In Action
We have witnessed, first-hand, the positive impact that Client Program Managers have in supporting our customers’ cybersecurity needs. Based on these metrics, we decided to include this function in all of our cybersecurity service offerings. In the effort to improve customer success in an area that hinges on fast response and agility, a dedicated CPM offers complete peace of mind as you’ll know that every possible scenario has been considered.
Not to throw shade on our competitors, but we now stand in strong contrast to other MSSPs who do not engage at this level and communicate solely through online ticket systems. By utilizing a CPM, Zyston’s clients have, without exception, experienced very smooth and seamless onboarding—which is a markedly different experience from current industry standards.
All this is to say, Zyston is and has always been 100% committed to customer success. At our core, we are solutions providers and problem-solvers, so we would be remiss in thinking that there is no room to improve.
In the constant effort to provide superior value for our customers, we recognized shortfalls in the current MSSP space. We feel that these are problems that can’t be solved by throwing technology or automation at them. In order to create a more agile, malleable, and bespoke approach to service delivery, we applied our best resource to it, and that’s our people.
Which leads us into the next bit of business…
