New Industry Taxonomy Dynamically Adapts to the Ever-Changing Security and Threat Landscape, Provides Unified Approach to Manage Cyber Risk
DENVER, Oct. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Optiv, the cyber advisory and solutions leader, today announced Optiv Market System (OMS), a revolutionary single reference architecture for the cybersecurity industry. OMS directly addresses the critical business challenge of maintaining robust security in an era of AI-driven threats and complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments while delivering comprehensive and integrated services, technology and solutions across all cybersecurity domains.
"OMS is more than a tool, it's a paradigm shift in helping organizations manage cyber risk, optimize and understand cyber investments relative to competitors, and secure business potential in a time of constant change, directly impacting their bottom line and operational resilience," said Kevin Lynch, Optiv CEO. "This groundbreaking framework underscores Optiv's 'category of one' position, showcasing our unique vantage point serving nearly 6,000 clients across every vertical and the enduring benefit of teaming with a singular partner to realize unparalleled efficiencies and accelerated outcomes."
OMS is a comprehensive security architecture built on how the modern business consumes and experiences cybersecurity. Optiv then layered in industry standards and viewpoints — like Secure Controls Framework, NIST Cyber Framework, MITRE, CIS and others — and mapped it to its own service offerings and partner technology products to create a detailed and holistic approach that organizes the taxonomy into Security Principles, Domains, Controls and Capabilities. This proprietary methodology allows Optiv to meet clients wherever they are in their security journey, across any domain, and serve them through three delivery modes: Advise, Deploy and Operate.
Key benefits of OMS include:
"End-users are looking for vendors to guide them through their cyber journey," said Craig Robinson, research vice president of security services at International Data Corporation (IDC). "The Optiv Market System shows a dedication to making security, whether it's tech or services, clearer, repeatable and easily consumable for security leaders."
Optiv is offering organizations the opportunity to undergo a Security Program Landscape (SPL) assessment, which maps their current environment to the OMS framework. This comprehensive assessment involves an expert advisor evaluating current solutions and controls against Optiv's proprietary methodology across key security program areas. Upon completion, organizations receive a detailed readout with specific areas to focus on and top recommendations for action to ultimately streamline their cybersecurity efforts, reduce complexity and more effectively manage cyber risk across their entire organization.
