Weed Out the MDR Pretenders

The increasing number of Managed Security Services vendors jumping on the bandwagon has led to confusion and risk for unsuspecting buyers. Recognizing lucrative opportunities in the Managed Detection and Response market, Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) have adjusted their marketing with clever claims that masquerade traditional alert-based services with limited signal visibility as MDR.

An image explaining how Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) mask as MDR service providers without delivering multi-signal visibility, threat containment, and complete response like a real MDR service provider, like eSentire, would.

Real MDR service providers address five measurable components of your protection:

  • Risk Management and Vulnerability Assessment
  • Management and Support
  • High-Fidelity, Multi-Signal Visibility
  • Threat Detection and Automated Blocking
  • Human-led Investigation, Threat Containment & Response

A logo of eSentire’s customer, Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP, next to the quote from the firm’s CIO who describes how eSentire leads the way in the managed detection and response market compared to other MDR service providers.
The nice thing with eSentire is, they’re always looking at my network. They’re looking at my environment. They’re looking at everything that’s coming through. I can sleep at night. I don’t have to have 24/7 SOC. I know that my network is being looked at and they’re taking care of it. And if they see something that they deem to be a threat, they can prevent it, and block it, and stop it, and get a hold of my team, if needed.”
