Coretek Continues to Tackle Growing Cyberattacks

As the IT landscape continues to evolve, most companies still need help to reach their full potential due to the volatile risks driven by vulnerable business process endpoints and technologies with generic security measures. Coretek remains ever-vigilant in helping organizations overcome this obstacle as a committed Microsoft Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) that provides robust event monitoring and intuitive device management for safeguarding on-premises, cloud-based, and remote work environments.

Coretek understands that organizations are fearful of what is going on in the world around security. The combination of Microsoft elevating itself to become the most comprehensive and leading security platforms along with Coretek’s world class leadership in Security and AI, results in the customer being more secure, modern and adaptable in an ever evolving threat landscape that's well managed through Coretek’s product and service offerings.

Coretek helps businesses align with Microsoft's Azure-based services and embrace modern workspace and management solutions for streamlined operations and strong security protocols.

This minimizes reliance on disparate platforms and partners and guarantees a unified security framework for a robust defense against cyber threats.

Whether accessing email or spinning up new cloud IaaS or PaaS instances, everything is managed in a single pane of glass, improving security standards. Users can easily access necessary business platforms hosted on Azure and Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows365, separating personal and business usage while protecting company assets.

The Growing Importance of Governmental Compliance

With technology changing at such a rapid rate, Coretek is continuously adapting, adopting, and innovating around Artificial Intelligence as well as Generative AI in seeking to create further efficiencies – especially for governmental compliance and/or government-based needs.

Accessing sensitive data matters – and how governmental organizations require to work with compliant, and secure MSPs and MSSPs has never been more important. That’s why Coretek continues to focus and deploy solutions for state and local governments, as well as healthcare and finance that share those specific compliance needs around Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC).

Our use of automation, whether as part of a customers controlled code base, or through Coretek managed code, has been instrumental in achieving both time to value and real business outcomes that drive down costs.” says Brian Barnes, CTO | CMO.

With a compliance framework assessment of System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC 2), Coretek can protect customer data from unauthorized access and other vulnerabilities – based on five Trust Services Criteria (TSC): security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. Coretek’s investment in automating those capabilities is ongoing and a strategic focus.

A Secure, Optimized and Continuously Improving Azure Environment

Coretek was one of the first partners to attain the Azure Expert MSP designation and continues to invest in the growth and improvement of the service as a critical part of our platform. To enhance your Azure experience, Coretek’s Managed Azure Team understands that working as an extension of your team enables everything to flow much smoother. That’s because they gain a much-deeper understanding of the way your business works along with insights into what the specific needs are at a certain point in time. Sometimes, just getting a fresh pair of eyes can open up new paths for improvement.

Bringing Users Closer Together Through Automation

As organizations move from different hyperscalers to Microsoft Azure, Coretek has developed deep expertise and thought leadership in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to both automate and increase the speed of deployment and migration for Cloud hosted applications and Desktops.

The deployment of these large environments require a great deal of automation which makes facilitating a lot of code necessary. Coretek’s expertise and depth of knowledge from being on the forefront of these services allows them to onboard users and deploy large pools of workers quickly and efficiently. The time it takes to get to the finished product can be reduced, in most cases, from months down to just weeks.

The key to dramatically shortening the time of those cycles is based upon all the automation and efficiency that Coretek has created as part of their deployments that bring users closer together with more accessible and secure data as part of a faster, more immutable infrastructure.

Ensuring User Transparency and Experience

The Coretek team seamlessly sets up business applications and deploys necessary security protocols to accommodate the workforce’s preferred work style, including remote, hybrid and office based. One of the crucial aspects of Coretek’s business is prioritizing user transparency and experience across all platforms, and Microsoft’s comprehensive solutions portfolio fits the task precisely.
