HYAS Protect and ConnectWise: Together at Last

September 19, 2024

At HYAS, our mission has always been to empower our clients with cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions that not only protect but also work within their environment and streamline their security operations. Too much of the cyber security industry tells a story of “look at all the great things you can do if you change your whole stack” and HYAS wants to deliver value with the existing environment.  As part of this commitment, we are excited to announce the seamless integration between HYAS Protect Protective DNS and ConnectWise, a move designed for MSSPs and MSPs to elevate your operational efficiency and provide advanced, cutting-edge, and third-party tested and proven Protective DNS and cyber resiliency in a way that makes it easy to consume and, in fact, is future-proof as your security stack changes in the future.

The Rationale Behind the Integration

In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, managing cybersecurity threats requires more than just advanced tools; it demands cohesive, integrated systems that enhance visibility and response capabilities. By integrating HYAS Protect with ConnectWise, starting with monitoring, we aim to bridge the gap between sophisticated threat intelligence, operational efficiency, and ease of use to ensure that the security operations are straightforward and simple.

Unified Threat Intelligence and Incident Management

HYAS Protect is renowned for its advanced threat intelligence capabilities, offering deep insights and protection against malicious activities and emerging threats. It’s even been tested and validated by AV-TEST as the most correct Protective DNS solution today.  When integrated with ConnectWise, this intelligence is seamlessly incorporated into their existing IT service management workflows. This means that alerts and threat data from HYAS Protect are directly fed into ConnectWise PSATM and Hyas integration, allowing for more streamlined incident management. No longer do you have to juggle between multiple platforms—everything needed is consolidated in one place, facilitating faster and more informed decision-making.

Enhanced Automation and Efficiency

The integration between HYAS Protect and ConnectWise doesn’t just bring data together; it also enhances automation. By leveraging ConnectWise’s automation features, you can create custom workflows that automatically trigger actions based on the threat intelligence and alerts provided by HYAS Protect. For example, when a high-risk threat is detected, an automated ticket can be generated in ConnectWise PSATM, assigning tasks to the relevant team members and ensuring a swift response. This level of automation reduces manual intervention, minimizes human error, and accelerates incident response times.

Streamlined Communication and Collaboration

Effective cybersecurity management hinges on clear communication and collaboration among team members. The integration ensures that threat intelligence and incident details are easily accessible to all stakeholders within the ConnectWise platform. This fosters better coordination between security teams and IT departments, as everyone works from the same set of data and insights. The result is a more cohesive approach to managing threats and vulnerabilities, enhancing overall security posture.

Scalability and Future-Proofing

As an organization grows and evolves, so too does the organization’s cybersecurity needs. The integration between HYAS Protect and ConnectWise is designed with scalability in mind. Whether you’re expanding your IT infrastructure or adapting to new threat vectors, this integration provides a flexible foundation that can grow with you. It ensures that your security operations remain agile and capable of addressing new challenges as they arise.

The Bottom Line

At HYAS, we understand that managing cybersecurity threats is not just about having the right tools; it’s about ensuring those tools work seamlessly together, in your specific environment, to create a robust defense system. By integrating HYAS Protect with ConnectWise, we’re delivering a solution that not only enhances your cyber resiliency and overall cyber protection but also integrates it into your broader IT management framework. This means more efficient incident management, better automation, streamlined collaboration, and powerful analytics—ultimately leading to a more secure and resilient organization.

In an age where cybersecurity threats are increasingly sophisticated, it’s essential to have a solution that evolves with the landscape. The HYAS Protect and ConnectWise integration is a testament to our commitment to providing our customers with the best tools and capabilities to stay ahead of threats. We’re excited for you to experience the benefits of this integration and to continue supporting your journey toward a stronger cybersecurity posture.
