The what, why and how of Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

Managed Detection and Response is a combination of technology and skills delivering advanced threat detection, deep threat analytics, global threat intelligence, faster incident mitigation, and collaborative breach response on a 24×7 basis.

Both solutions have a role to play; MDR enhances MSS services with deeper focus on detecting and responding to breaches.
