| Titre | What is managed detection and response? |
| Texte | This article was written by an independent guest author. The last 12 months have seen massive upticks in the frequency, sophistication, and intensity of cyberattacks. This comes at a time when business operations have changed drastically with shifts to more cloud resource use in order to increase access, availability, productivity, and profits. The challenge for IT has become how to monitor the state of security of this complex mix of systems, platforms, applications, and environments while being able to quickly and effectively respond to detected potential or active threats. Organizations like yours have long realized their limitations around staffing and expertise to properly address this growing need within a security strategy, causing security service providers to fill the void with managed detection and response services. What is managed detection and response (MDR)? Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a managed cybersecurity service that provides organizations with 24x7 active monitoring and intelligence-based detection of threats, helping to quickly respond and remediate detected threats. Outsourced teams of experienced security analysts augment your internal team and enhance your security solutions with threat intelligence that is designed to detect advanced threats on endpoints and the network. The analyts also work with your team to define processes and workflows to aid in investigation and remediation activities. In short, MDR provides your organization with a security operations center (SOC) and dedicated analysts working to ensure the security of your environment. Some MDR offerings also include threat hunting as part of the service. Where does the term MDR come from? MDR has evolved from Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), who historically have offered managing and monitoring of network security, but left the investigation and remediation activity to internal IT teams. This put the burden of identifying real threats and performing incident response actions back on the already overtaxed IT staff. One common challenge for internal IT teams is that no one is a cybersecurity expert; your team is made up of primarily generalists with some degree of specialty. When we’re talking about identifying and responding to a potential cyberattack, your organization needs an expert. Thus, MDR was born. MSSPs are more focused on security monitoring and alerting, so MDR takes this much farther by including detection, response, and threat hunting. While both typically utilize vulnerability scanning and Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) functionality, MDR services use additional solutions that provide visibility all the way down to the endpoint to ensure a complete picture of any potentially malicious activity, as well as response orchestration to automate remediation. The MDR’s monitoring includes: 24x7 alarm monitoring by a SOC team The reliance upon state-of-the-art threat intelligence Security analyst review and validation of alarms to eliminate false positives and non-actionable alarms, as well as escalation of actionable alarms to a Tier 2 analyst Incident investigation and notification to internal IT teams Execution of response plans tasked to the SOC team The key benefits of MDR MDR provides organizations seeking to have continual security monitoring and response in place with a number of benefits over taking this on internally: SOC complexity is eliminated – it’s going to take a tremendous effort and budget to establish an internal SOC; in many cases quarters to get up and running. MDR services include the use of a world-class SOC that already exists, meeting the organizations SOC need. Rapid deployment – With a SOC already in place, deploying MDR services takes weeks instead of quarters. Access to security experts & |
