CCDC and DVP Form Strategic Partnership to Provide World's 1st Smart SOC to Alternative Asset Community

EAST HANOVER, N.J., Sept. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Critical Cyber Defense Corp. (CCDC) announced today that it has entered into a strategic partnership with DVP Partners, LLC (DVP) to represent its CYREBRO® Smart SOC (Security Operations Center) in the U.S. hedge fund and alternative asset community.

The partnership was established to provide the highest level of cybersecurity for financial institutions that require stringent adherence to data security laws and regulatory demands. By partnering with CCDC, DVP is bringing the CYREBRO Smart SOC solution to the banking, insurance, hedge funds, and the alternative asset space -- all of which are significant targets of nation-state and independent cyber terrorists and hackers.

CYREBRO is the world's first Smart Security Operations Center. It is a holistic and proactive cybersecurity system that leverages leading-edge technologies with an elite team of highly-trained Israeli cyber intelligence gatherers, analysts, and security experts. CYREBRO is completely technology agnostic and operates 24x7x365 through remote monitoring so that the data never leaves the customers' data center.

CyberHat, which developed and operates the CYREBRO Smart SOC, was recently featured in the Forbes article "Leaders Emerge As The Industrial Internet Of Things Ecosystem Takes Shape" along with Amazon Web Services, Cisco Systems and IBM. In the article, a Senior IoT Analyst declared, " CyberHat is one of the few firms that has integrated real-world cybersecurity assessments and security operations center (SOC) solutions from the data center to the edge."

CCDC is a select, strategic CyberHat partner that has brought CYREBRO to the U.S. market. Mark Meller, CEO of CCDC, said, "Because of the regulatory compliance needs of the hedge fund and alternative assets community, partnering with DVP was an obvious choice for a strategic partnership. Their cyber practice is headed by industry experts with law enforcement backgrounds that have a core convergence of skills including, regulatory understanding, compliance, technical, cyber, forensics, vendor management and ongoing remediation. Adding CYREBRO to their portfolio will further strengthen their existing, robust cybersecurity practice."

DVP Partners Business Advisory practice acknowledges the importance of having a strong security posture and Written Information Security Policy (WISP) in place to attract and retain assets. Their practice enables compliance with the directives that were issued by The Office of Compliance Investigations and Examinations (OCIE). They also work with outsourced fintech and cloud providers and work with firms across all AUM sizes and asset classes to provide compliance, mitigate operational risk and protect and preserve investor capital.

Don Previti, Managing Partner of DVP, said, "We are honored that CCDC and an established and market leading security firm like Cyberhat has chosen DVP Partners to represent their CYREBRO Smart SOC to our clients and partners in the hedge fund and alternative asset markets. This unique offering will be transformational and will provide the only true SOC as a Service which is manned 24x7x365 not by network engineers, but by an Israeli veteran cybersecurity staff that proactively interprets and mitigates incoming attack vectors. This blended solution of people, process and technology all working together will further help our clients to protect and preserve their corporate reputation and investor trust.
