TL;DR
- Expel enhanced our leading cloud MDR services by integrating with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
- This direct API integration provides coverage across major cloud providers
- Expel has also continued its commitment to stellar cloud security by joining the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA)
When you think cloud, there’s usually three names that come to mind: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. But there aren’t only three cloud providers out there, which is why we’re excited to unveil our Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) MDR coverage (#5 globally with a 3% market share).
As the newest addition to the continually-expanding list of Expel technology integrations, OCI coverage enables us to extend our leading cloud managed detection and response (MDR) services to Oracle environments and customers. Whether you’ve just adopted OCI or have been utilizing it for years, Expel is ready to secure your entire cloud infrastructure 24×7, 365 days a year.
Approximately 80% of orgs operate in multi-cloud or hybrid cloud environments. And as cloud technologies are adopted at an exponential rate, it increases the digital footprint size—and likewise the target—adversaries look to exploit. Many organizations also lack the expertise to manage the security of multiple complex configurations, leading to unmanageable alerts, misaligned security controls, and gaps. That’s why Expel added OCI to our existing cloud control plane offering—and why our customers were requesting it.
“Multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments are practically ubiquitous, but many enterprises struggle to effectively manage security across these platforms,” said Yonni Shelmerdine, Chief Product Officer at Expel. “We’ve added MDR support for OCI to ease that burden—addressing a critical cloud security need for many enterprises and lightening the load for increasingly over-taxed security teams.”
With multi-cloud and hybrid cloud models becoming more ubiquitous, Expel has the expertise and technology to secure these complex environments. We centralize monitoring of your cloud infrastructure, enrich alerts with context, and deliver a 17-minute MTTR to customers. This reduces risk exposure and finds and plugs security gaps in the cloud, ultimately giving your team space to tackle critical security challenges.
And one more cloud thing—we’ve joined the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA)
We’ve also joined the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA)—the world’s leading organization dedicated to defining standards, certifications, and best practices to help ensure a secure cloud computing environment—as part of our commitment to world-class cloud security.
“Expel has always recognized that strong cloud security is paramount for modern businesses. Most enterprises have a long-term multi-cloud strategy, having confidence that MDR is available and optimized for popular cloud platforms is beneficial to the entire industry,” said Jim Reavis, co-founder and CEO at CSA. “We’re excited to welcome Expel to CSA and look forward to collaborating with the team there to further the best practices that will benefit cloud security worldwide.”
