New York-based Global IT infrastructure services provider Kyndryl announced today the launch of a new Security Operations Center (SOC) in Bengaluru, India.
The SOC will use artificial intelligence, machine learning, and integrated automation systems to offer comprehensive support and advanced protection capabilities for the entire cyber threat lifecycle.
Kyndryl Security Operations Center in Bengaluru is designed to be a cyber defense hub that operates around the clock to offer cybersecurity-related threat intelligence and incident response services, in association with Kyndryl’s global network of cybersecurity experts.
Kyndryl’s Security Operations Center (SOC), Bengaluru, has capabilities, such as incident monitoring levels, malware analysis labs, threat hunting, and security information and event management (SIEM), to track and link security incidents. The SOC utilizes advanced cyber engineering to examine developing signs of compromise and the impacts of incidents to offer customers valuable insights.
Additionally, the SOC assists in ensuring compliance with government regulations for data protection and adjusts to changing cybersecurity threats and regulatory demands.
The SOC is underpinned by Kyndryl’s Security Operations as a platform (SOaap) capability, a single, unified digital platform that provides a centralized view of the latest cyber threats in real-time, with flexible delivery and a collaborative approach.
According to a 2023 DSCI report, more than 400 million cyber threats were detected across 8.5 million endpoints among Indian respondents, averaging 761 detections per minute.
“We are addressing the critical security challenges C-suite leaders face, the need for enhanced operational efficiency, compliance with evolving security regulations and integration with new technologies. Our focus is on managing increased workloads, responding to dynamic business needs and defending against an expanded attack surface. With the Indian government’s strong focus on data security policies, we are committed to leading the way with innovative and responsible enterprise resilience services to make India Cyber Surakshit,” said Lingraju Sawkar, President, Kyndryl India.
“The SOC will observe, identify, prevent and react immediately to these threats. This system demonstrates Kyndryl’s dedication to advancing our technologies, helping organizations achieve the best results while maintaining control over their data and information security,” said Kris Lovejoy, Security & Resiliency Global Practice Leader, Kyndryl.
Kyndryl provides a hybrid model for organizations to outsource cybersecurity functions or the end-to-end management of their cybersecurity operations. It will also function as a center of excellence (CoE) for cybersecurity management with specialized skills, certifications, and experience in cybersecurity platform management and technologies.
