What it is

WithSecure MDR is a managed detection and response service that monitors an organization’s IT environment, investigates threats, and responds using data from Elements EDR. Certified threat hunters provide monitoring 24/7/365, and WithSecure states that 90% of cases have an SLA-backed response time of 60 minutes. For confirmed incidents, its Detection and Response Team can isolate hosts, stop malicious processes, and remove persistence. Analysts may spend up to 30% of their time proactively hunting for threats. MDR for Identities is an optional add-on covering identity threats through Microsoft Entra ID. The integration catalog includes SIEM products such as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, Elasticsearch, and Cortex XSOAR. Before monitoring can begin, organizations must deploy the Elements Agent across their devices. Advanced Response must be enabled for analysts to carry out containment and remediation, and customers must provide two incident contacts whose combined availability covers 24/7. The service starts at €16.90/mo and includes a 30-day trial; Elements pricing is modular, with buyers directed to a certified partner for a suitable combination and price.
