The Latest Red Piranha News

July was a busy month for us here at Red Piranha!

From launching our Partner Assurance Program, securing our Crystal Eye XDR customers from vendor supply chain risk, to introducing the redesigned Orchestrate Cloud Dashboard, too many exciting things happened in just a month.

August has just started for us. Let's see what new adventures this month has in store for us, but rest assured, our team is always here to assist you in any possible way.

Red Piranha Launches Its "Partner Assurance Program" To Help Secure Its Crystal Eye XDR Customers

Our ‘Partner Assurance Program’ has been developed to provide a level of assurance for our products and services delivered to end-customers concerning ensuring that our Managed Service Providers (MSP) and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP) overall data security, compliance are meeting industry best practice, thus reducing their vendor risk, and strengthening their cyber supply chain risk (SCRM).

Over the last three years, we’ve seen a steep growth in sophisticated cyberattacks and network compromises involving clients of MSPs, with the MSP acting as the initial vector to their client’s network compromise. The devastating Kaseya cyberattack serves as a clear reminder that third party processes can breach even the most refined security defences.

To provide confidence and improve the overall cybersecurity standards with our Partners, we have developed the Partners Assurance Program. We will work alongside our Partners and assist them in managing the supply chain risk they pose as a vendor to their clients by developing a holistic security program that uses a defence-in-depth approach integrating compliance policies and security controls within an information security management system.

Red Piranha Achieves CREST Certification

We are pleased to announce that we have achieved the CREST ANZ (Council of Registered Ethical Security Testers) certification. Our CREST ANZ certification approval provides our partners and clients with the assurance and confidence that our penetration testing services are of exemplary quality, conform to industry best practices and meets the highest ethical standards in penetration testing services.

CREST provides internationally recognised accreditations for organisations providing penetration testing, cyber incident response, threat intelligence, vulnerability assessment services and Security Operations Centre (SOC) services.

As an official CREST ANZ approved organisation, Red Piranha has been independently assessed to ensure our proficiency and compliance in our cybersecurity capabilities, systems, processes, and delivery penetration testing practices.

Crystal Eye XDR Update

July has been another busy month with work progressing on updates to SSL VPN to allow more flexibility in deployment as a significant milestone topping a raft of application updates that should be automatically pushed to all Crystal Eye 4.0 systems.

GEN 11 work is progressing with the final touches expected in early August, which will allow us to ship the refreshed hardware platform later that month.

We’ve redesigned our Client Dashboard!

Our team has been jam-packed, working hard to update our Orchestrate Cloud Dashboard (Client Dashboard) in the backend. We've completely redesigned the interface, improved the device management capabilities and archive capabilities, and so much more!
