In today’s digitally driven world, cybersecurity is a paramount concern for businesses of all sizes. The threat landscape is constantly evolving, and organisations need robust solutions to safeguard their digital assets. However, not all organisations have the resources, expertise, or inclination to develop their own security operations centre to keep pace with today’s threats. That’s where our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service comes into play.
Our MDR for Microsoft solution delivers dependable, scalable cybersecurity protection. Whether you are a medium-size business or a large corporation with Microsoft 365 Defender suite as part of Microsoft Enterprise licence, Adarma can help by adding an enhanced layer of protection to your business. Adarma’s Managed Detection and Response applies critical insight to the alerts generated by your security infrastructure around the clock, 365 days a year.
What sets our Microsoft MDR solution apart from competitors is our unwavering commitment to our Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) heritage. We prioritise service as the core element, with technology serving as the facilitator. This distinction separates us from many who primarily focus on technology-driven approaches. At Adarma we believe that technology is only as good as the people who deploy, integrate, manage and optimise it.
Our MDR service comes with a team of experienced Cyber Defenders well-versed in the latest threats and attack techniques. These experts analyse data from multiple sources, correlate information, and investigate anomalies to ensure that security incidents are thoroughly understood and effectively mitigated.
MDR Standard is designed for UK-based organisations seeking to bolster their cybersecurity posture. With 24/7 monitoring, top-tier threat intelligence, and the option of adding DFIR support (Digital Forensics and Incident Response), we deliver essential security measures to protect your business from evolving threats. We exploit the detection and response potential of Microsoft Defender, including behavioural analytics and machine learning, augmented with our advanced threat intelligence, hunting, monitoring, investigation, and response capabilities, and delivered through the Adarma Threat Management Platform.
Access our shared 24/7 operations desk located within the UK, staffed by experienced analysts. This ensures constant monitoring and investigating security alerts produced by the Defender 365 suite. Our threat detection mechanism is optimised to cover email, web, endpoint, server, and identity. While our threat response covers device isolation and account disablement. Additionally, you will benefit from a shared engineering pool and established processes, ensuring effective threat detection and response.
Stay ahead of emerging threats with expert tactical intelligence and daily threat reports. Our UK-based threat intelligence team provides invaluable insights and modelling to strengthen your overall security strategy. These insights seamlessly integrate with Detection & Response and Exposure Management operations, offering a comprehensive approach to threat mitigation.
24/7 response provides rapid, effective, and proportionate containment. Whether you would prefer a fully delegated response, or more of a customer-directed response, we can make it happen. As an MDR customer you will have the option of adding-on our private Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) service. In the event of a security incident, our experts stand ready to assist with investigations and response efforts.
We run expert hunts 365 days a year. We will proactively hunt for emerging threats such as ransomware, initial access resale, business email compromise and emerging global incidents, giving you that additional detection coverage.
MDR Standard is compatible with the following Microsoft licence tiers:
• Microsoft 365 E5
• Microsoft 365 A5
• Microsoft 365 E3 with Enterprise Security and Mobility E5
MDR Premium, offers a step up from the standard package to provide robust protection in today’s ever-changing landscape. With MDR Premium, you gain access to comprehensive coverage for:
• network traffic,
• enterprise applications,
• and cloud assets.
The Premium service offers an advanced level of protection, providing comprehensive defence against the evolving threats of the modern digital landscape.
We understand that modern threats can come from a diverse range of threat actors, via various threat vectors, that’s why we’ve extended our protection to encompass these critical areas. Whether it’s monitoring network traffic for unusual patterns, safeguarding your enterprise applications, or ensuring the security of your cloud assets, our team of dedicated Cyber Defenders have got you covered.
In contrast to many MDR services, our premium package includes Socket Analytics, our proprietary Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution.
What does this mean for you? It’s simple, you won’t need to go through the hassle of ingesting network logs via a separate SIEM, which can increase your SIEM costs and add complexity to your cybersecurity infrastructure. With Socket Analytics included, you get an all-in-one solution that streamlines your security operations, reduces costs, and enhances your threat detection capabilities.
Incremental to MDR Standard, MDR Premium offers the following upgrades:
Detection and Response: MDR Premium includes industry-specific threat intelligence and extends coverage to encompass network traffic, enterprise applications, and cloud assets. Benefit from personalised service with a dedicated service manage. Additionally, you can opt to include virtual CISO as an optional service.
Threat Intelligence: Access to premium, industry-specific threat intelligence, strategic reporting, and industry-specific threat modelling, providing you with tailored insights and a deeper understanding of potential risks.
