What to Ask Eye Security (7 questions)▼
- 1.
What is the actual per-endpoint cost at our scale for each tier (Cyber Guard, Plus, Insured), and what is the insurance premium portion of the Insured tier?
- 2.
Where is our security data stored? Do we get raw log access in our own Sentinel tenant, or is it in Eye Security's infrastructure?
- 3.
What independent validation exists for the 4-minute response time claim? Is this measured from detection to containment, or detection to analyst acknowledgment?
- 4.
How many SOC analysts monitor customers overnight, and are they in a single European location or distributed?
- 5.
If we already have cyber insurance, can we use the Cyber Guard Plus tier without the insurance bundle and still get the same detection and response quality?
- 6.
What happens to detection rules, investigation history and insurance coverage if we leave Eye Security?
- 7.
What certifications does Eye Security hold (ISO 27001, SOC 2)? We could not find these published on your website.
