Protecting SMEs with the Heimdal Security Suite

The rise of cyber threats targeting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) has prompted a significant response from the tech industry. In the face of increasing ransomware attacks and tailored cyber incidents, effective security solutions for SMEs are more necessary than ever. The integration of advanced cybersecurity technology into a single platform is no longer optional, but a fundamental requirement for businesses of all sizes.

GFD Partners with Jupiter Technology

In an effort to streamline security solutions for SMEs, GFD, headquartered in Yokohama, Kanagawa, has recently announced a partnership with Jupiter Technology, located in Fuchu, Tokyo. This collaboration revolves around the deployment of the highly acclaimed Heimdal Security Suite, a comprehensive cybersecurity integration platform that offers a multitude of protective measures. These include DNS threat prevention, patch and vulnerability management, next-gen antivirus solutions, ransomware encryption defense, and email security—all integrated into one platform.

GFD aims not only to sell the Heimdal Security Suite but also to provide implementation assistance and operational support, thereby addressing the security challenges faced by SMEs and enhancing their operational efficiency.

Rising Cybersecurity Threats

Recent statistics reveal a troubling trend: the number of reported ransomware incidents targeting SMEs is predicted to rise by 37% in 2024 compared to the previous year. As cyber attackers refine their strategies, the urgency for robust security measures grows. Unfortunately, many SMEs grapple with limited budgets and personnel, making it a daunting task to establish effective, multi-layered security protocols. This situation sets the stage for GFD’s commitment to adopting innovative solutions such as Heimdal.

Heimdal is lauded for its comprehensive approach to cybersecurity, covering prevention, detection, and response to threats—providing efficiency and cost reduction concurrently.

What Makes Heimdal Stand Out?

Heimdal distinguishes itself as a top-tier cybersecurity integration platform, particularly recognized in Europe. The system has gained accolades from notable entities, including the FBI, Europol, and the U.S. Department of Justice, for its significant contributions to malware prevention.

The platform integrates various cybersecurity measures—DNS threat prevention, patch management, next-gen antivirus, ransomware defenses, and email security—allowing businesses to combat threats effectively from a single dashboard. This visibility not only elevates operational efficiency but also contributes to cost savings. Importantly, Heimdal’s functions do not interfere with existing endpoint security products, allowing users to choose standalone functions or operate multiple functionalities as required.

By embracing automation and multi-layered defense, Heimdal delivers a next-gen solution enabling SMEs to implement effective security measures within the confines of limited resources.

GFD's Commitment to Security

Moving forward, GFD is determined to establish itself as the leading technology company in Kanagawa, focusing on advanced security products, including Heimdal. Through this commitment, GFD aims to provide support that strengthens and secures the IT infrastructure of businesses across the board.
