Nimbus, a leading IT Managed Service Provider, has announced an investment of £250,000 in cutting edge Cybersecurity products and services which will include a Security Operations Centre (SOC) based out of its Belfast office.
This strategic move comes just two years after the company invested heavily in Security services during the height of the Covid pandemic to help businesses making a shift to remote or hybrid working, enhance their Cyber posture.
The investment aims to bolster Nimbus' existing capabilities by enabling a comprehensive range of threat monitoring, detection and rapid response services to counter evolving sophisticated cyber threats, including Ransomware and other attacks aimed at stealing company data or bringing companies IT systems to a halt.
