**Falanx Group Ltd** ([LON:FLX](https://www.directorstalkinterviews.com/company/falanx-cyber-security/fcs.l)),
the global intelligence, security and cyber defence provider, have today announced
the launch of MidGARD, its wholly owned, proprietary, cyber threat detection platform.

MidGARD detects, alerts and provides analysts with the ability to investigate and
intervene in cyber security threats as they occur on client’s networks and systems.
The MidGARD platform IPR is wholly owned by Falanx and is currently live on its 
first client network and the value of this pilot contract is approximately £50,000
per annum. In addition, the use of MidGARD will eliminate the costs to the Company
of licensing an off the shelf product, resulting in an expected operational cost
reduction of approximately £0.5M per annum, when fully rolled out.

The Directors believe that MidGARD will have a broad market appeal and will represent
a highly cost effective solution for both Government, Enterprise and Small to Medium
size companies.

MidGARD Represents the latest innovations in advanced threat detection and security
incident and event management. It brings together big data analytics and external
intelligence aggregation, backed up with our own live Security Operations Centre
based in the UK, manned by UK Security Cleared Staff.

Enabled by MidGARD, our Security Operations Centre alerts the client of the problem
and puts in place the most appropriate course of action. This is further extended
through our Incident Response Service where we start to defend the organisation 
in real-time while a team is deployed onsite to start the recovery process.

MidGARD has been designed to be fully compliant within UK Government organisations
and large Enterprise class clients who have demanding compliance and regulatory 
needs. Our platform is also available as a dedicated Small to Medium Enterprise 
Solution, called “microSOC”. Bringing the quality of an Enterprise class platform
at a price and size dedicated for the UK SME.
