Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services

Sophos Managed Detection and Response services are ideal for organisations of all sizes looking to enhance cybersecurity, especially those lacking a dedicated in-house security operations team or with limited security resources and skills. Businesses needing improved response times to cyber threats, and those aiming to detect advanced threats that bypass traditional tools, benefit greatly. Sophos managed detection and response services maximize ROI from existing cybersecurity investments and provide comprehensive incident response for effective threat management.

Common use cases for Sophos MDR services include 24/7 threat monitoring, allowing IT and security teams to stay ahead of threats. MDR accelerates threat response by reducing the mean-time-to-respond from hours to minutes. For example, if a ransomware attack starts outside of normal working hours, Sophos MDR services can swiftly detect and neutralise it, minimising damage. Our services also detect threats that security tools miss, such as identifying credential theft from phishing attacks. Sophos MDR services consolidate various security technologies, filter out redundant alerts, and focus on confirmed threats. They enhance cybersecurity through proactive threat hunting, identifying suspicious activity and providing immediate incident response. These capabilities ensure comprehensive protection and efficient management of cyber threats.

Key features of Sophos MDR services include ongoing expert-led threat monitoring by Sophos analysts, human-led threat response actions, and industry-leading response times. Proactive threat hunting identifies sophisticated attacker behaviours, while integration with existing cybersecurity technologies enhances visibility, detection, and response. Leveraging seven global security operations centres, Sophos MDR services provide comprehensive 24/7 coverage, eliminating noisy alerts and ensuring fast and accurate threat elimination.
