Deepwatch provides managed security services (MSS) and a managed security platform to monitor and protect clients’ digital assets. The platform augments existing security tools, increases visibility over the attack surface, and reduces alert volume and false positives while guiding continuous improvement of a client’s security posture through deep threat management metrics. A key differentiator is the patented Security Index framework, which helps identify the right metrics and KPIs to measure how well security operations are working, and the company positions itself as a security partner and extension of the client team rather than a one-time vendor. The goal is for clients to deliver their core outcomes securely by maintaining ongoing, measurable security improvements and resilience.
