Detection and response
An antivirus no longer stops a determined attacker or today's ransomware. Managed detection and response watches your endpoints with EDR and, with XDR, also correlates the signal from your network, your email and your cloud to see the whole attack, not isolated pieces. And the MDR part is what makes the difference: we do not leave you yet another tool to tend, but analysts who detect, investigate and contain the threat for you.
Managed detection and response across your whole environment, throughout Spain.
Why
The defense from ten years ago is for the known, but it does not see the attacker who comes in with something new, malware-free and patient. For that you need to detect, look at the whole environment and respond.
It stops the known, but a new attack or one that uses no malware slips through without a sound.
An alert nobody attends to is worth nothing. Without someone to act, detection only gets halfway there.
It starts in an email, continues on a device and jumps to the cloud. Watching a single layer is seeing only half of it.
Buying the technology and having no one to operate it is paying for alerts that pile up without a response.
What is included
It is not a box that beeps, but the detection technology plus the team that operates it, tunes it and acts when something is real.
Detection and response on every workstation and server, far beyond what an antivirus sees.
It joins the signal from endpoints, network, email, cloud and identity to see the whole attack, not isolated pieces.
Analysts who monitor, investigate every alert and decide, not just a panel lit up waiting for someone to look at it.
When the threat is real, the device is isolated, the attack is cut off and the damage is recovered until it is left in a clean state.
Active search for what evades the rules, without waiting for an alarm to go off.
Only what matters reaches you, already investigated, instead of a thousand alerts you would have to filter.
The approach
It all starts with the signal: what happens on your devices, your network, your email and your cloud. EDR collects it at the endpoint and XDR correlates it with the rest to tell a real attack from the everyday noise. That is where a loose alert becomes a story you can understand.
And what closes the loop is the response. When something is real, we do not send you an email and wait: action is taken, it is contained and you are told. That continuous operation of monitoring and response is our SOC, Sondriva.
The tool or the service
You can buy the technology and operate it yourself, or have us operate it. The difference shows the day something really happens.
You buy the EDR or the XDR and it is on you to configure it, read its alerts and decide what to do with each one. If there is no team behind it, the alarms pile up and the important ones get lost among the false alarms.
The same technology, but operated by analysts who tune it, separate the real from the noise and act when needed. You receive what matters, already resolved or on its way to being so.
What you do not see
The difference between a good service and one more panel is not in the tool, but in what happens behind it. Every alert is investigated before bothering you: the context is checked, the false positive is discarded and only what truly is a threat goes up. That way you stop drowning in notices and start trusting the ones that arrive.
And the system tunes itself over time. What is normal in your company is learned, the rules are adjusted to your reality and threat hunting looks for what moves below the radar. The longer we watch, the less noise and the better the detection.
When
There is no one watching your security continuously, and attacks do not warn you when they arrive.
You want to detect what the antivirus does not see and be able to respond, not just find out when it is already too late.
NIS2 and other regulations require incident detection and response capability, with evidence that it exists.
An incident has made it clear that someone watching was needed, and you want to make sure it does not happen again in the dark.
Method
We put the agents on your devices and connect the sources from your network, your email and your cloud.
We learn what is normal in your company and adjust the rules so that false alarms drop from day one.
Continuous monitoring, with threat hunting and every alert investigated before anything is escalated to you.
When something is real, it is contained and you are informed, with the lesson learned fed back into the system.
Fits with
Detection and response is the day to day of your security, and it is operated by our SOC, Sondriva. It draws on threat intelligence to know what to look for, and when an incident grows large, incident response steps in to contain and recover.
It also stands up to compliance: it covers the detection and response capability that NIS2 requires, and it pairs with a pentest that checks, from the other side, where they would attack you.
Questions
EDR is the technology that detects and responds on your endpoints, the workstations and servers. XDR extends that detection to the rest of the environment, network, email, cloud and identity, and correlates the signals. MDR is the service: the team of analysts who operate those tools for you, monitoring, investigating and responding. EDR and XDR are the what, and MDR is who runs it.
An antivirus blocks threats known by their signature. EDR goes further: it watches behavior, detects new or malware-free attacks and lets you investigate and respond. And with MDR there are people behind it who act, not just an alert that someone has to notice.
No. The managed service provides the technology and the analysts, so you do not have to set up or maintain a SOC. The operation behind it is our SOC, Sondriva.
Yes. Monitoring is continuous, so threats are detected as soon as they appear and not days later. The response is triggered according to the service level we agree with you.
It helps a lot. NIS2 requires incident detection and response capability, and an MDR service covers it directly. We connect it with your compliance with the directive.
Yes. It is designed precisely for those who do not have their own security team: enterprise-grade technology and analysts behind it, at the scale of an SME.
Yes. The typical behavior of ransomware, the mass encryption of files, is detected and cut off as soon as it starts, before it spreads. And because the response includes recovery, whatever was encrypted can be rolled back to its previous state.
