The One-Size-Fits-None Problem in Cybersecurity
In an era where 43% of cyberattacks target small businesses (Verizon 2024 DBIR) and enterprises face 1,200+ attack attempts per week (Forrester), generic security solutions are failing organizations across industries. The harsh reality?
-
68% of breached companies had “compliant” security tools (Ponemon Institute)
-
52% of security alerts go uninvestigated due to alert fatigue (IBM)
-
83% of organizations say their security stack has critical coverage gaps (ESG Research)
This is why leading businesses are turning to Atomic North’s customizable Managed Security Services – because effective protection must be as unique as your business.
Why Off-the-Shelf Security Solutions Fall Short
The Limitations of Standard Security Packages
Most Outsource Managed Security Services providers offer rigid, pre-packaged solutions that fail to account for:
-
Industry-Specific Threats
-
Healthcare: HIPAA compliance vs. ransomware targeting patient data
-
Financial Services: SWIFT protection vs. API banking exploits
-
Manufacturing: OT system security vs. industrial espionage
-
-
Business Size Considerations
-
Startups needing cloud-native protection
-
Mid-market firms requiring 24/7 SOC coverage
-
Enterprises demanding threat intelligence integration
-
-
Geographical Requirements
-
India’s DPDP Act compliance
-
Regional threat actor profiles (e.g., Chinese APTs vs. Russian cybercrime groups)
-
Local language support for SOC teams
-
