Managed Detection

Factors that include escalating threats, complexity and a shortage of skilled security practitioners are leading to a shift in the way that security defences are delivered. Technology vendors can no longer just deliver security products to organisations and let them get on with it, albeit with some level of professional help in terms of implementation and tuning, which can alternatively be provided by consultants. Over the past couple of years it has become apparent that organisations are looking for a much higher level of hands-on guidance to augment the capabilities of the security tools that they invest in. The rise of managed detection and response services looks set to relieve organisations of many of their cybersecurity response burdens.
