Threat Monitoring
MDR uses advanced security tools to monitor an organisations network and their systems in real-time. It will analyse security information, logs and network traffic in order to detect signs of security breaches.
Remediation
MDR services incorporate a team of cyber security experts who will work to analyse and detect any threats or incidents in order to determine their level of risk as well as the impact they could potentially cause. Recommendations for remediation will be produced and the team will work closely with the organisation so that security improvements can be implemented and preventive measures are put in place.
Incident Validation
When a security incident is detected, it is investigated by the MDR security analysts. The evidence will be analysed to validate the incidents, and then determine the threat risk this could pose on the organisation.
Reporting & Improvement
MDR services will generate reports on any threats that are detected and the overall security status. These reports can aid in providing an insight into an organisations security risks. They also help in supporting continuous improvement of the security strategy as a whole.
Incident Response
When the MDR detects a security risk, a response team will work to investigate the impact this could have, determine the root cause and then mitigate the threat. There will be steps in place for different types of security incidents should they appear, if they do, then this will trigger these pre-meditated responses to effectively deal with the incidents.
Why does your organisation need a Manage, Detection & Response (MDR)?
-
Threat intelligence and monitoring tools serve to identify any security threats in real-time.
-
Rapid response times to security incidents that mitigate the impact, contain the impact, and prevent any further damage.
-
24/7 monitoring of an organisations IT environment.
-
Provide access to specialised security professionals that have an extensive knowledge and vast experience in cybersecurity that stay up-to-date with the latest threats and attack techniques.
-
They conduct detailed investigations to detect any signs of compromise within an organisation and then pile together an analysis of the root cause. This helps prevent threats from otherwise escalating and allows organisations to better understand their security position.
