The modern cybersecurity problem isn’t technical — it’s operational

A few years ago, the team that is now Jarix was operating security for a payment processor. We did everything “right”: EDR deployed, WAF configured, SIEM running, identity management in place, threat intelligence active. We passed PCI DSS audits. And still, every week was the same story: alerts piling up, analysts putting out fires, and the constant feeling of being one step behind.

The problem wasn’t the lack of tools.
The problem was that we still hadn’t understood how to operate cybersecurity effectively.

The tool trap

The cybersecurity industry has a dangerous bias: selling solutions as if they were definitive answers.

You buy an EDR and they tell you you now have “endpoint protection.”
You implement a SIEM and they promise you “full visibility.”

But what comes next is rarely discussed.

Few mention that you’ll need dedicated people to tune detection rules. That 80% of alerts will be noise. That analysts will spend more time navigating consoles than investigating real threats. That operating 24x7 with a small team is, simply, mathematically impossible.

The real problem: operating security

Most organizations don’t fail in cybersecurity because they lack technology — they fail because they lack operations.

Having the best tools doesn’t reduce risk if no one correlates them, no one responds in time, and no one has an end-to-end view of what is happening.
Security doesn’t break because controls are missing — it breaks when those controls aren’t being operated intelligently.

From internal team to spin-off

We didn’t design this model to sell it.
We designed it so we could operate without collapsing.

Over time, it became clear that what we had built internally solved problems that many other companies were also facing. That’s how Jarix was born: ERON International’s security team turned into a service.

The point

Cybersecurity isn’t solved by buying more technology.
It’s solved by operating better.

Jarix was born from ERON International’s security team, a hub of payment processors. Today, we operate cybersecurity as a service for companies that understand the difference isn’t in the tools, but in how they’re used.
