Solutions by Industry
The complexity of our connected world is soaring at rates never before seen. As NESTT guardians it is our mission to secure and assure the performance of your digital architecture.
While cybersecurity is a priority for enterprises worldwide, requirements differ greatly from one industry to the next.
NESTT is your dedicated security partner. We understand each industry and create scalable solutions for each system.
Businesses and government organizations need more than a simple audit to provide effective threat assessments. They need industry-specific expertise, tools, and processes to protect digital assets and assure compliance.
Industry Challenges
Evolving Security Threats
Cybercriminals continuously explore new ways to exploit vulnerabilities making it difficult for organizations to keep up with evolving security threats.
Expanding Network Perimeters
An expanding remote workforce is putting companies and government agencies at risk from improperly configured networks and inadequate endpoint security.
Meeting Compliance Requirements
Understanding security compliance requirements to stay in compliance can be confusing and overwhelming for many organizations to manage.
Maintaining Enterprise Growth
Organizations are turning to cloud environments for greater efficiency but with new infrastructure and network dynamics come unknown risks and attack paths.
Education
Service Assurance and Security for Education Institutions
Are my school platforms safe from data theft? That is a common question we get from clients in the education sector. NESTT penetration testing protects education institutions from financial loss and disruption while most importantly shielding students and faculty from harm.
The education industry for public school districts, colleges, and universities must protect their intellectual property and the personal information of each student. Allowing users to access their networks and systems through personal devices adds an extra layer of risk.
Today’s education sector IT teams face higher levels of complexity for applications that support a tech-savvy user population. Colleges and universities require flexibility to balance remote learning with in-person instruction while safeguarding their information infrastructure from cyberattacks.
Educational systems differ from other industries because anyone can become a bad actor. From amateur student hackers to highly organized international cybercrime syndicates education institutions have become increasingly more vulnerable to unplanned exploits.
Finance
Accelerating Digital Transformation for the Financial Services Sector
As more businesses shift to digital transactions, IT and security teams face unplanned problems that expose organizations to new vulnerabilities. Today’s successful financial services operators must focus on driving incremental revenues while making rapid service delivery changes.
Customers now require alternatives to face-to-face transactions so digital transformation is rapidly accelerating. Anytime, anywhere access needs to be provided quickly and without interruption while also complying with global and regional financial standards.
Hackers do not just target banks. Recent data breach statistics show hackers are targeting the entire financial sector. NESTT will help make sure you don’t become one of the statistics. Since data breaches continue to rise, regulations are growing in number and complexity.
Hackers are not only after money, they are usually after Personally Identifiable Information that can be used to steal a victim’s identity. From best practices to annual testing requirements, very specific security protocol should be followed to stay in compliance while thwarting cyberattacks.
Government
NESTT Knows Government
Unlike commercial enterprises, when government agencies fail to meet challenges, widespread implications result for citizens and residents. As federal, state, and local agencies embark on their digital transformation journey, we can help. Whether you need help with cloud migration, tool consolidation, or shared devices, NESTT has the experience, technology, and solutions to ensure your success.
NESTT transforms the way government agencies develop, deliver, and secure their digital services. Our competencies increase constantly to meet the evolving needs of our clients. Our devotion to seeking innovative and agile solutions is second to none in the government industry.
The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) was introduced by the U.S. government to standardize the process for federal agencies to adopt new, secure cloud services. FedRAMP was created under the Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA), with a requirement from the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB) that FISMA be implemented using standards created by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Whether you’re a cloud service provider (CSP), third-party assessor organization (3PAO), or an authorizing organization (AO), NESTT can help you execute FedRAMP-compliant penetration tests, and prepare clear and thorough reports that document findings and validate remediation. Most importantly, we test against real-world threats thus helping your agency minimize the chances of high-profile, disastrous breaches of federal databases and systems.
HealthCare
Pentesting to Protecting Healthcare Organizations
Hospitals and healthcare organizations store massive amounts of private data. They rely on numerous devices for daily operations which makes them ideal targets for ransomware and spear-phishing by cybercriminals. Each medical device provides an entry point for hackers making the organization vulnerable to catastrophic cyberattacks.
NESTT delivers seamless solutions for healthcare providers across private, public, multi-cloud, or on-premise environments. Hackers are drawn to the wealth of personal information healthcare records contain. Patients use a variety of applications across facilities and any disruption in patient information, appointment scheduling, telemedicine, imaging, or accounting could have drastic effects on patient care.
Our key healthcare focal areas are: clinical application performance, business application performance, healthcare network performance management, and healthcare security and availability. With the healthcare industry in a constant state of change and the threat landscape escalating, HIPAA covered organizations and their associates must go beyond compliance requirements to provide the level of privacy and security needed today.
Partnering with NESTT enables healthcare organizations to secure their environments while complying with all necessary regulation. Our security engineers work directly with your security team to develop scalable programs that improve your security posture while migrating core business functions to the cloud. We help manage and keep your IT services operating efficiently with the end result of optimizing the patient experience.
