Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

Secure your organisation's cloud environments and safeguard users, devices, and data.

We deploy highly certified security analysts in your environment to detect, analyse, and actively respond to threats across technologies.

The Importance of a Managed Detection and Response Service

Organisations experiencing rapid growth can often find their ability to detect and respond to security events lags behind the rest of their cyber security capabilities.

  • Maintaining Key Visibility: As new technologies and processes are introduced to modernise their operations, it is harder for them to maintain complete visibility across all their environments and otherwise mature their security posture. This is especially true for organisations that are dependent on operational technology (OT) or are in the process of completing digitalisation projects. 
  • Addressing Security Gaps in IT-OT Convergence and Cloud Migration The convergence of IT and OT, and increasing cloud migration, creates unique security requirements that most organisations can't address with the resources and expertise they have available. With regulatory requirements also evolving, many organisations find themselves unclear on how to mature their capabilities quickly and in line with best practice.

Managed Detection & Response FAQ's

The main difference is that MDR focuses on proactive detection and response to cyber threats.

MDR services are designed to proactively identify, investigate and respond to threats that have evaded detection by traditional security solutions by integrating threat hunting into the detection service.

This leverages threat intelligence to analyse threats, actors, and behaviours, as well as zero-day attacks. Traditional security monitoring from most service providers typically rely on passive detection methods, such as signature-based detection, which can only detect known threats. 

 

An MDR solution typically includes the following key components:

  1. Great people with strong expertise and experience.
  2. Modern and proactive processes - i.e. threat hunting, content development and automation - that leverage threat intelligence and research.
  3. The ability to integrate modern XDR along with IT and OT assets.
