Comodo Announces Open Seas as Newest MSSP Partner

Clifton, NJ – December 10, 2020 – Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced a partnership with Open Seas, a leading UK based technology consulting firm. Together Comodo and Open Seas will bring Comodo’s cybersecurity solutions, including the Dragon platform, with advanced endpoint protection (AEP), SOC-as-a-Platform (SOCaaP™), and Managed Detection and Response (MDR), to the marketplace.

“We previously utilized another EDR solution to provide our MDR service, but since they were acquired in October of 2019, we’ve needed a replacement solution. We evaluated a number of vendors but Comodo’s solution gave us the most comprehensive multi-layered IT security stack with a single console,” said Jason Kent, Director at Open Seas. He continued, “It offers many other security layers in addition to our prime EDR/MDR offering, which allows us to truly offer an outsourced SOC as a service to SMEs and MSPs and brings cyber expertise to customers who couldn’t traditionally consider an MDR service. The combination of Open Seas and the technology from Comodo presents customers with an unprecedented powerful cyber solution never before seen in the sector.”

Comodo’s Dragon platform with AEP is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs an unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks. The Dragon Platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows.

Comodo’s Valkyrie is a file verdict system that analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file- no other company will analyze and give a trusted verdict for 100% of files on the network. What differentiates it from traditional signature-based malware detection techniques is that it conducts several analyses using run-time behavior and hundreds of features from a file and based on analyses, results can warn users against malware undetected by classic AV products.
“Having access to Comodo’s Valkyrie AI with their IT security team for MDR means we can grow our endpoints under management without having to add as many of our own specialists. This allows us to finally offer a true 24/7 service to our customers,” Jason continued. Comodo’s MDR is a 24/7 Security Operations Center delivered as a Service (SOCaaS). It provides a team of security researchers that extends a company’s IT team to safeguard IT systems and infrastructure. Using Comodo SIEM and endpoint management technologies along with threat intelligence from the Comodo Threat Lab, our security experts hunt for vulnerabilities, continuously monitoring IT systems for indications of compromise, and contain advanced threats.

Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “Partnership with Comodo gives access to the only cybersecurity that neutralizes zero-day threats and stops undetectable threats that AI, ML, and other technologies miss.”
