Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
What is Sophos Managed Detection & Response (MDR)?
Managed Detection and Response is a fully managed, 24/7 service delivered by experts to mitigate cyber security threats. It combines the disciplines of Threat Intelligence, Threat Detection, and Response to maximise the security of your organisation.
MDR leverages multiple technologies and services to detect and respond to threats quickly. These include sensors and analytics that can identify anomalous behaviours or malicious activities; malware detection solutions; incident response plans; and response mechanisms for any identified threats.
How Does it Differ from other Cyber Security Defences?
Unlike traditional cyber defence solutions, MDR makes it easier for organisations to respond to cyber threats in a structured and rapid manner. This approach also allows businesses to monitor their networks on an ongoing basis, providing more visibility into user activity, system vulnerabilities, and emerging threats.
It offers organisations the ability to detect and respond to threats faster and more effectively, which is critical in today’s complex IT landscape.
