  Granite Expands Granite Guardian Solution with Managed Detection and Response Security Service

  Granite Guardian MDR Combines Threat Detection with 24/7 Monitoring and Rapid Response by Expert Security Analysts

  QUINCY, Mass. – January 1, 2021 – Granite Telecommunications, a $1.6 billion provider of communications services to multilocation businesses and government agencies, announced the expansion of its new Granite Guardian end-to-end managed network services with the addition of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) security services.   

  Granite Guardian MDR is ideal for organizations that don’t have the internal expertise and/or bandwidth to keep a vigilant watch over the security of their

  IT environment. MDR efficiently supplements an organization’s security threat management efforts by combining intrusion detection and threat hunting with rapid incident response by expert security analysts and 24/7/365 Security Operations Center (SOC) support.

  The introduction of Granite Guardian MDR is timely as MDR is one of the fastest growing segments in the cybersecurity market, driven by a spike in the volume and sophistication of cyberthreats.

  “Granite Guardian MDR proactively addresses today’s challenges in protecting valuable assets, including the surge in cybersecurity threats and the shortage of skilled IT and security talent,” said Granite COO Rand Currier. “Granite Guardian MDR allows our customers to focus on what they do best while we focus on what we do best —affordable and reliable managed endpoint protection.”

  Granite Guardian MDR includes:

  • Managed next-generation antivirus and antimalware
  • Managed threat intelligence
  • Endpoint detection and response (EDR)
  • Log event collection and correlation (managed SIEM)
  • File integrity monitoring
  • Proactive threat hunting
  • SaaS threat monitoring (cloud IaaS and PaaS)
  • Log data retention

• Granite Launches Granite Guardian FlexEdge to Deliver Single-Source Network Management (Jan 28, 2021)

  Granite Launches Granite Guardian FlexEdge to Deliver Single-Source Network Management

  Communications Provider Introduces Universal Edge Device to Manage Security, SD-WAN, IP Communications, POTS Lines, Cellular Data and More

  QUINCY, Mass. – December 21, 2020 – Granite Telecommunications, a $1.6 billion provider of communications services to multilocation businesses and government agencies, today announced the availability of Granite Guardian FlexEdge, a universal customer premises device that consolidates multiple network functions, such as firewall, SD-WAN, session border controller (SBC), cellular data router and more.

  Granite Guardian FlexEdge is an enhancement to Granite Guardian, a comprehensive managed network solution that safeguards the availability and performance of business connections from WAN to LAN using an “as-a-service” delivery model. Granite Guardian includes services for Access Remediation, Local Area Network (LAN), Security and Wide Area Network (WAN) Optimization.

  “Granite Guardian FlexEdge enables us to deliver any and all of our best-of-breed managed network solutions without deploying proprietary hardware,” said Rand Currier, COO at Granite. “With the push of a button, FlexEdge can become a firewall, an SD-WAN router, an SBC, or cellular data endpoint. It’s the total package.”

  Uniquely, Granite Guardian FlexEdge also enables companies to quickly test or deploy one or more Guardian solutions without installing and paying for new hardware each time.

  “There is an old saying that you can have something better, cheaper or faster, but you can only pick two. Granite Guardian FlexEdge allows you to have all three,” said Currier. “FlexEdge not only enables customers to have more flexibility in choosing the best solutions for their needs and budget, but it also reduces hardware costs and speeds deployment since there’s no waiting for hardware to be shipped or for a truck roll.”

  The all-in-one Granite Guardian FlexEdge device allows enterprises to:

  • Terminate an Ethernet circuit
  • Connect a broadband modem
  • Add 4G/5G wireless backup
  • Install a proxy server that enables Granite Guardian Advanced Monitoring
  • Run an instance of any of Granite SD-WAN or security solutions
  • Deploy an industry-leading firewall from Fortinet, Juniper, Palo Alto, or Checkpoint
  • Install an SBC to run Granite VoIP services

  Granite Guardian FlexEdge enables enterprises to benefit from:

  • Single-box solution
  • On-demand service chaining without the need for extra truck rolls
  • Built-in remote troubleshooting tools
  • Rapid proof of concept
  • Lower hardware costs

  “Granite has set itself apart in the marketplace by simplifying, buying and managing communications solutions with one contact and one bill,” said Currier. “Granite Guardian FlexEdge extends this advantage with one universal edge device.”
