A
s retail industry is taking
a dramatic leap with
technological advancements
to redefine the way
consumers shop and interact, the
constant cyber menace is casting a
gloomy shadow over the landscape.
Presenting manifold challenges to
retailers, the omnipresent cyber threats
are driving security solution vendors
to define new ways to confront the
challenge. Retail businesses in the SMB
space are on a constant look out for
the same level of security Fortune 500
companies and government agencies
can deploy. The existing retail security
solutions are extremely complex and
expensive, which makes it unattainable
for most small and mid-size businesses
(SMBs), says Andrew Bagrin, an IT
security veteran and Founder and
CEO of MDS. The need of the hour
for retailers is to figure out the right
solution that fits their particular
need and can protect the Point-of-
Sale (POS) and computer systems. To
address this requirement, Wilmington
based My Digital
Shield (MDS) plays
the role of a shield
by making cloud-
based, enterprise
grade cyber-security
available and
attainable for any
business. Our vision
at MDS is to secure
the entire network and
not let the threats get
closer, says Bagrin.
MDS provides comprehensive and
customized cyber security protection
tailored to meet the specific demands of
small businesses. The company removes
the complexity of todays advanced
Unified Threat Management (UTM)
technology, which has left most of the
deployments completely misconfigured.
By leveraging its proprietary
configuration engine, MDS simplifies
the configuration process and provides
the most advanced and sophisticated
defenses. The SMB space, especially
retail, requires a cost-effective, high
performance and simplified security
solution. These are the key things MDS
provides with its patented engine and
patent pending cloud framework, says
Bagrin.
Additionally, MDS removes the
perils of legacy on-premise perimeter
defenses that companies adoptlargely
restricted to a limited area and bereft
of greater data protection measures.
MDS flagship cyber
security platform
OmniShield, the omni-
present dynamic virtual
perimeter solution,
removes the bottleneck
of these traditional
premise based security
products by virtualizing
the perimeter, allowing
greater throughput,
and advanced
protective and breach detective actions.
It also provides the same perimeter
and protection regardless of location
or type of device its protecting.
OmniShield enables companies to
easily deliver high-end cyber-security to
their customers with very little technical
knowledge, delineates Bagrin. MDS
also offers a partner program that
enables service providers to private
label its services. While ensuring the
entire customers data is secured in the
cloud, MDS assures that SMBs needs to
protect their data against data breaches,
hackers, viruses and other cyber-security
issues are met.
As a provider of Security-as-a-
Service (SECaaS), MDS has served
numerous managed service providers
and small businesses across various
industries including retail, restaurants,
hospitality, and professional services.
In an implementation highlight, a bar
which installed MDS platform shortly
after their inauguration, received a
malware alert from their POS systems.
Instantly we identified and removed
the malware issue by blocking their
outbound communication to the
internet (C2 servers), extols Bagrin.
As the retail businesses in the SMB
space is mostly affected by cyber-
attacks, MDS is committed to deliver a
truly easy-to-use mechanism for every
company to remain protected behind
OmniShield and never connect to the
unsecured internet. This way our
technology advancement leads a new
paradigm of improved machinery for any
device or connection, making it more
resilient, higher performing and which
would provide much better quality of
service, concludes Bagrin.

OmniShield enables companies to easily deliver high-
end cyber-security to their customers with very little
