Optus has been chosen by security data analytics company Devo Technology to launch a managed threat monitoring service for enterprise and mid-market customers.

Under this new partnership, the telco’s managed threat monitoring services will leverage Devo’s real-time analytics, AI and intelligent automation to achieve visibility, detection, investigation and response to threats.

Devo’s integrated platform includes data-powered security information and event management, security orchestration, automation and response and user and entity behaviour analytics. AI and intelligent automation are claimed to also help security operations teams make the “right decisions” in real-time.

Danny Price, vice president, enterprise and business at Optus, said partnering with Devo adds to its “already strong security portfolio and supports the team of experts, who work around the clock here in Australia”.

“We know how critical cyber security continues to be and the importance of continuing to invest in new technology, particularly as the threat landscape continues to evolve,” he said.
