The Company commits to processing such data exclusively under the Customer’s directive and in line with GDPR, CCPA, and other relevant data protection laws. It will adopt necessary technical and organizational safeguards to protect the data from unauthorized access, destruction, or loss.

The Company will also support the Customer in addressing data subjects’ rights under the GDPR and CCPA, such as access, correction, deletion, and portability of data, and will promptly inform the Customer of any data subject requests it receives. In case of a data breach, the Company will immediately inform the Customer and assist in mitigating any potential impacts, as mandated by law.

Recipient shall take commercially reasonable measures, at a level at least as protective as those taken to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature (but in no event less than a reasonable level), to protect the Discloser’s Confidential Information within its possession or control, from disclosure to a third party. The Recipient shall use the Discloser’s Confidential Information solely for the purposes expressly permitted under this Agreement. In the event that Recipient is required to disclose Confidential Information of the Discloser pursuant to any Law, regulation, or governmental or judicial order, the Recipient will (a) promptly notify Discloser in writing of such Law, regulation or order, (b) reasonably cooperate with Discloser in opposing such disclosure, (c) only disclose to the extent required by such law, regulation or order (as the case may be).

The Beacon Detect platform is engineered to provide a holistic cybersecurity solution that assesses, simulates, and enhances the security posture of all devices within an organization, including those connected directly and indirectly. This multi-faceted approach encompasses internal and external devices, leveraging advanced breach and attack simulation techniques (automated penetration testing) to identify vulnerabilities. The platform is uniquely capable of remediating many weaknesses automatically, enhancing the organization’s cyber defense mechanisms.

Key Features:

• Comprehensive Device Assessment: Beacon Detect is tailored to evaluate the security status of every device and its network connections, both internally and externally, to ensure a thorough security overview.
• Automated Penetration Testing: Through automated breach and attack simulations, the platform identifies vulnerabilities, providing a proactive approach to threat management by simulating potential attacks and breaches.
• Automatic Remediation: In many instances, Beacon Detect can automatically address and remediate detected weaknesses, streamlining the process of securing the organization’s digital environment.
• Protection Against Malicious Connections: The platform initiates defenses against accidental or intentional connections to malicious sources via our Global Threat Cloud Vortex, ensuring continuous protection.
• Asset Management and Cyber Posture Analysis: A dynamic inventory of all assets and their current cyber protection status is maintained throughout the subscription term, offering real-time insights into the organization’s cybersecurity health.
• Alerts and Remediation Guidance: Administrators designated by the customer are responsible for setting up alert recipients within the system and overseeing the remediation process as guided by the platform’s recommendations.

Process Overview:

1. Discovery and Validation:
   • Asset Discovery: Initial discovery of all internet-facing and internal assets, including an exhaustive inventory of devices connected to the organization’s network.
   • Asset Validation: Administrators review and validate the inventory to ensure accuracy and ownership, with the capability to decline or confirm assets at any stage.
2. Exploitation and Remediation:
   • Vulnerability Identification: The platform identifies and prioritizes vulnerabilities, providing detailed insights into potential risks and targeted attack vectors.
   • Automated and Guided Remediation: Upon vulnerability detection, Beacon Detect offers automated remediation solutions and detailed guidance for manual interventions, ensuring swift response to security threats.

Customization and Control: Administrators have full control over the system’s alert configurations and remediation actions, enabling tailored security measures aligned with the organization’s specific needs.

3. Setup and Deployment Process:

The Beacon Detect platform offers a flexible and user-friendly setup process tailored to meet the diverse deployment needs of organizations. Understanding that each organization’s IT infrastructure is unique, Beacon Detect supports a variety of deployment mechanisms to ensure seamless integration into existing systems.

Deployment Options:

• Microsoft Active Directory GPO: For organizations utilizing Active Directory, Beacon Detect can be deployed across devices and systems via Group Policy Objects (GPOs), allowing for centralized management and deployment.
• Standalone Install: The platform also supports standalone installations for individual devices or systems where centralized management is not required or applicable. This option provides flexibility for smaller organizations or specific use cases.
• RMM Tools Compatibility: Recognizing the importance of Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tools in managing IT environments, Beacon Detect is designed to be compatible with any number of RMM tools, facilitating easy deployment and management through the tools IT teams are already using.

Onboarding and Guidance:

To ensure a smooth transition and setup, the Beacon Detect onboarding process includes comprehensive guidance on choosing the best deployment option suited to the organization’s infrastructure. The platform provides step-by-step instructions, best practices, and recommendations to optimize the deployment and ensure successful integration with the organization’s existing IT ecosystem.

During onboarding, customers will receive:

• Detailed Documentation: Clear, concise documentation outlining each step of the deployment process, including prerequisites, installation procedures, and configuration settings for different environments.
• Expert Support: Access to Beacon Detect’s team of cybersecurity experts, offering personalized support and answers to any technical questions that arise during the setup process.
• Training Materials: Resources and training materials designed to familiarize IT administrators with the platform’s features and capabilities, ensuring they are equipped to manage and utilize Beacon Detect effectively.

This comprehensive setup and deployment process is designed to minimize disruptions, ensure efficient implementation, and enable organizations to quickly benefit from Beacon Detect’s extensive cybersecurity protections.
