Edge UOL implements cyber resilience as a definitive strategy against modern attacks

With an extensive partner ecosystem, the company adopts a 360-degree cybersecurity strategy

Facing a scenario in which digital threats are increasingly common and sophisticated, Edge UOL, a Brazilian company specializing in cybersecurity and IT infrastructure services, is solidifying cyber resilience as its main strategy to protect companies against modern attacks. This approach, which goes beyond traditional defense, is made possible by a robust ecosystem of partnerships with global industry leaders, allowing the company to offer a 360-degree security solution.

The company’s stance is based on the fact that, in the current context, it’s not enough to just prevent attacks; it’s essential to be prepared to respond and recover from them with minimal operational and financial impact. To fully execute this offering, Edge UOL acts as an orchestrator of cutting-edge technologies, integrating the best solutions on the market.

“Just acting reactively is no longer enough,” says Clayton Oliveira, head of Cybersecurity at Edge UOL. “Our vision of cyber resilience breaks the mold and is committed to building a technological and operational infrastructure that can absorb the impact, adapt to the threat, and quickly recover its functions. It’s about ensuring our client’s business doesn’t stop.”

Edge UOL’s 360-degree security strategy covers the entire lifecycle of a threat:

• Prevention and Prediction: It uses artificial intelligence, automation, and practices such as continuous vulnerability management, dynamic application security testing (DAST), automated breach and attack simulations (BAS), and Red Team operations. The protection of cloud-native applications is reinforced by CNAPP platforms. This combination ensures real-time visibility, compliance, and a proactive posture against threats.
• Protection: It involves applying next-generation firewalls (NGFW), WAF, CNAPPs for multi-cloud environments, multi-factor authentication (MFA), identity and access management (IAM), privileged access management (PAM), and zero trust policies. Endpoint and server protection is bolstered by EDR/XDR and advanced filters for email and browsing, creating a robust and adaptive defense.
• Detection and Response: It adopts an integrated and intelligent approach to identify suspicious activities, continuously monitor digital environments, and respond to incidents quickly and accurately. It also employs technologies such as next-generation SIEM with behavioral analysis (UEBA), multi-layered detection (EDR, NDR, and identity), digital forensics (DFIR), and automation with SOAR and artificial intelligence for correlation and analysis. The 24×7 SOC operates continuously, enhancing agile, scalable, and precise responses to cyber threats.
• Recovery and Continuity: This implements robust backup and disaster recovery policies and processes, focusing on the complete and rapid restoration of data. This layer ensures operational continuity, minimizes financial and reputational impacts, and allows for a secure resumption of operations even in the face of critical events, with plans validated by regular recovery tests.

With this 360-degree approach, Edge UOL offers a comprehensive, proactive, and resilient cybersecurity strategy capable of protecting digital assets at all stages – from prevention to recovery – with intelligence, scalability, and trust.

This system is strengthened by strategic partnerships with leading technology and cybersecurity vendors. Edge UOL ensures access to the best solutions from major players specializing in technology and cybersecurity, such as Rapid7, Fortinet, CrowdStrike, ManageEngine, Apura, E-TRUST, PhishX, BeCompliance, and others. The company is also responsible for providing customer support for the use of these tools.

Edge UOL offers services for observability, data collection and analysis, simulated phishing campaigns, personalized training, and information security awareness weeks. The company provides cybersecurity best practices in compliance with industry standards and Brazil’s General Data Protection Law (LGPD).

The integration and management work becomes more robust with the personalization, cohesion, and affordable cost of the services offered by the company. These are crucial points, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which often lack the resources to maintain dedicated security teams and access to cutting-edge technologies.

“Democratizing access to high-level security is one of the pillars of our strategy. An SME cannot be vulnerable simply because it doesn’t have the same investment power as a large corporation,” states Rodrigo Rangel Lobo, COO of Edge UOL. “By centralizing management and relying on our partner ecosystem, we offer the best in security technology. We handle the complexity of cybersecurity so the entrepreneur can focus on growing their business.”

By implementing its cyber resilience strategy, Edge UOL solidifies its position as an essential partner for companies seeking not only to survive but to thrive in the digital age with security and confidence.
