Proficio licensed to Provide managed SOC Monitoring Services in Singapore

KUALA LUMPUR, June 23 (Bernama) -- Proficio, a leading Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service provider, announced it has been licensed by the Cyber Security Agency (CSA) of Singapore to provide Managed Security Operations Centre (SOC) Monitoring Services.

“Singapore organisations are faced with increasing cyber risk from ransomware groups, cybercriminals, and nation-state actors,” said Proficio’s Managing Director for APAC, Alex Tok in a statement.

“Proficio’s approach to managed detection and response combines advanced threat analytics with human-led threat hunting and investigations to identify indicators of attack or compromise on a 24/7 basis.

“We applaud the direction the Cyber Security Agency (CSA) of Singapore is taking in raising the expectations of Managed SOC Service providers and are pleased to be one of the first to receive this licence.”

Conferred by the 2018 Cybersecurity Act, the new licensing framework is required to operate in Singapore and aims to better safeguard consumers’ interests and improve service providers’ standards.

First established in 2014, Proficio’s Singapore SOC has continuously grown in size and maturity to become one of the largest SOCs in Singapore. Today, Proficio has earned a reputation for excellence by providing Managed SOC Services to some of the best known and most demanding Singapore enterprises and industries.

In addition to Managed SOC Services, Proficio is the first MDR service provider to automate containment of threats at the endpoint, perimeter, cloud, and identity layers.
