Modern security organizations are entrusted with combating attacks in real-time, proactively preventing security breaches. While current security protections are not enough, they make certain that the company's and its affiliates' physical and digital integrity are not compromised while hoping to accomplish more.

The majority of security leaders aspire for this degree of security maturity by implementing several "state-of-the-art" next-generation technologies and information security technology. Within these organizations, however, employees work in silos, using various tools and practices that limit threat visibility from start to finish.

CyberQ Group, powered by Cyware, hosted a conversation on collective defense and how it enables organizations to stay ahead of developing threats and better defend networks by facilitating real-time sharing and collaboration across industries and sectors. The CyberQ Group is a reputable global cyber intelligence, strategy, and operational capability business.

This collaborative cybersecurity strategy is achieved through collective defense by coordinating threat response and information sharing between internal and external organizations, as well as industries.

IT executives and industry movers and shakers, according to Roberto Tayag, CEO of CyberQ Group, have continually challenged cyber and data security over the years, and it has evolved with a high level of scrutiny. The CyberQ Group's cyber security services, such as Cyber Fusion Service, have been specifically tailored to defend an organization's cloud infrastructure. The cyber structure of the corporation makes it simple to bring cyber expertise and services into any organization as needed. Every company is on a unique path, and each one requires a cyber partner who can not only defend them now but also scale with them in the future.

“The Cyber Fusion Service will disrupt the market. Companies are having a hard time to hire security professionals, because there is still consensus that there aren’t really a lot of security professionals around. Thus, for Filipinos, we’re in competition with the rest of the world, exporting cybersecurity skills. It’s not that it’s not easy to retain but rather companies are struggling with one, monitoring what’s happening within their organizations. And next one, is response. Like being able to perform response to mitigate against attacks. With our service, it will be much easier and cost-effective for companies to be able to monitor what’s happening and to be able to respond. And with a lot of attacks going on, with the discussion on threat intelligence, it is much more in need right now to have threat intelligence capability. We’re on to offer that threat intelligence capability to the market,” Tayag added.

Tayag has been in Cybersecurity for more than 18 years. With a background in Malware behavior and analysis, reverse engineering, security monitoring and incident response, he has been helping organizations develop their security capability for almost half of his career. He has worked both locally and abroad. He has been with companies like Trend Micro, IBM Security, Macquarie Group and Verizon. He is now the Chief Executive Officer for APAC for CyberQ Group.

CyberQ Group specializes in Cyber Fusion technology, which combines all security functions (such as threat intelligence, security automation, and incident response) into a single connected unit for detecting, managing, and responding to attacks.

Cyber Fusion Service provides a more proactive and unified strategy to dealing with potential threats by bringing together diverse teams for a more collaborative system.

This is much more than just linking teams. CyberQ Group can engage with organizations to learn how they operate, what their needs are, and provide security advice and recommendations using this system.

Cyber Fusion, in general, combines several activities into a single functional area. Threat intelligence, analytics, threat detection, incident response, governance & compliance, and threat hunting are all important parts of a cyber fusion.

Gary Tate, VP for Asia Pacific and Japan, Cyware and Shilu Pushpan, Head of ASEAN, Cyware, joined Tayag during the Cyber Fusion Launch held in Ortigas last May 18, 2022.

CyberQ Group and Cyware work hand-in-hand to deliver the Cyber Fusion Service through accelerated research, threat intelligence, and automated response. CyberQ Group’s Cyber Fusion Service will help streamline businesses and security by integrating its key functions, making it resilient to online hazards in the process. With this newly improved service, the cybersecurity team can perform response in the client’s behalf using reliable machine-to-machine integration. With its integrated structure, clients can spend less on quality security. And with a team of experts on the job, businesses can experience a system that’s a breeze to apply and run.

Cyware unifies previously siloed security operations, allowing organizations to more efficiently share threat data and collaborate on threat response within their security functions as well as with other organizations on their network.
