Posted by Mumbai: Kaspersky launches Professional Services packages for SMBs. The new packages offer tailored support products that help customers get the most out of their cybersecurity resources.
The new range of packages includes infrastructure health checks, application deployments, upgrades, vulnerability and patch management, and encryption for portable storage. These packages help IT teams manage ‘the deployment gap’ while optimising protection and maximising ROI.
According to recent Kaspersky research, SMBs plan to increase their IT security budgets by up to 14% in the next three years – and getting professional help to enhance the efficiency of their cybersecurity is among the top choices to spend their budgets.
Kaspersky launches Professional Services packages for SMBs include five packages:
Health Check Service Package
Analysis of the customer’s policies, audit, health check, identification of current and potential issues in the customer’s Kaspersky infrastructure, reporting and recommendations.
Deployment Service Package
Creation of basic policies, deployment of essential Kaspersky applications, deployment of protection to an agreed number of customer systems, etc.
Upgrade Service Package
Deployment of the latest version of Kaspersky Security Centre, migration of settings and policies from customer-created backups, etc.
Hard Disk and Removable Drive Encryption Service Package
Configuration of authentication agent, and implementation of full disk encryption on an agreed number of HDDs, portable storage and/or configuration of file-level encryption.
Vulnerability & Patch Management Service Package
Configuration and setting up of basic policies, demonstration of the critical scenarios and typical situations admins will have to deal with, etc.
If the customer’s IT team opts to deploy Kaspersky software themselves, the company said it will still support them through the whole process and provide all necessary assistance, including detailed instructions and demo videos. It will also ensure that the software is optimised.
After implementation, Kaspersky specialists can check the software to ensure that everything is properly installed, and will operate correctly and at peak performance, in line with Kaspersky standards and best practices.
“Our new professional services portfolio together with our experts make life for IT administrators a lot easier. Our experts speak your language – let them handle updates, configure software or assist with migration to Kaspersky products and solutions on your behalf so you can focus on other business issues needing your attention to maximize business efficiency,” said Oleg Gorobets, Senior Global Product Marketing Manager – Kaspersky.
“What’s different about these packages compared to regular Professional Services? Simplicity. It’s all preconfigured, customers just need to add the Packages they need to their contract, and we’ll do the rest,” added Gorobets.
