Address blind spots from siloed security solutions and benefit from the most effective means of identifying and mitigating security incidents with Avalon Cyber’s managed extended detection and response (MXDR) service, KnightVision MXDR.
KnightVision MXDR includes our world class 24/7/365 security operations center (SOC), staffed by expert security analysts, who utilize our state-of-the-industry SIEM platform to perform advanced analytics and investigate indicators of compromise (IOCs), including malicious entities probing your infrastructure, compromised systems, and potentially unsecured user behaviors.
Endpoint detection and response (EDR) technology is used to identify and respond to threats on an organization’s endpoints (i.e., desktops, laptops, phones, and tablets).
Managed detection and response (MDR) is the combination of EDR and other technologies and a team of security experts. The addition of human expertise ensures a broader range of protection, as these experts can immediately act upon identified threats.
Extended detection and response (XDR) is essentially a next-gen version of EDR, but protects beyond endpoints, monitoring data from email, servers, the cloud, firewalls, network appliances, web apps, and more.
Simply put, managed extended detection and response (MXDR) is the next generation of threat detection and response. It is a comprehensive 24/7/365 service—driven by a team of cyber experts—that collects and correlates data from multiple sources beyond endpoints and provides detailed visibility in one location. MXDR is the most efficient and effective solution available to identify and eradicate threats.
XDR technology collects and correlates the data that identifies threats occurring at different layers of your security stack. Our team (who add the “M” to MXDR) can properly configure the XDR to conduct forensic investigation and threat hunting activities across numerous security solutions, all from a single console.
Data from security log sources such as endpoints, cloud infrastructure, identity solutions, network traffic, and more is brought into the system.
Log data is parsed, normalized, and correlated to automatically detect threats using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Through human and machine analysis, alerts are prioritized, so our highly trained security analysts and threat hunters can quickly analyze new events and automate investigation and response activities.
With the ever-increasing number of threats, there’s an ever-increasing number of alerts – and your IT team doesn’t have the time to address every one of them. By outsourcing this massive task to Avalon Cyber, your IT team can focus on their core duties.
MXDR is the best option for stopping threats in their tracks, as you have a team of experts utilizing the most comprehensive range of security telemetry data, including endpoint data, network traffic, and cloud-based environments.
Outsourcing this service to Avalon Cyber means you don’t have to take on the expense of adding full-time, highly paid security professionals to your payroll.
