| Bluedog Security Monitoring Launches in PH to Protect Local SMEs |
Bluedog revealed that its service is based on a low-cost box dubbed as Sentinel, which is easily plugged into the customer’s network. The company also explained that if it detects an issue, Sentinel will send an alert to a 24/7 Security Operations Center located in Makati City. Moreover, it has highly trained cyber-security analysts that can assist consumers with data breaches.
“With cyber-attacks against smaller businesses are on the increase and budgets stretched, SMEs are vulnerable to the cyber criminals in increasingly large numbers,” Bluedog CEO Paul Lomax addressed. “Whilst larger organizations may be able to afford their own cyber-security personnel, SMEs find it difficult to employ dedicated cyber-security staff.”

Bluedog disclosed that 43% of all cyber-attacks are aimed at small to medium businesses, while 60% of small companies shut down their business within 6 months of a cyber-attack. However, what seems to be the biggest risk is customer data.
Bluedog Security Monitoring will be backed by a network of IT resellers and Managed Service Providers to support their service in the Philippines.
