Managed Detection & Response (MDR) in the Age of Digital Transformation: Tackling Evolving Cyber Threats
Quadrant Knowledge Solutions defines Managed
Detection and Response (MDR) as a managed service that combines
technology with human expertise to swiftly detect, analyze, investigate, and
respond to cyber threats, reducing their impact through real-time threat
mitigation and containment. MDR solutions enable faster threat defenses across
endpoints, networks, hardware systems, applications, OT/IoT, and enterprise
assets.
MDR providers utilize real attack data to enhance an organization’s
overall security posture. A typical MDR solution should investigate endpoints,
search for historical information using indicators of compromise to root out
threats, and automatically detect threats. Additionally, MDR solutions assist
organizations in performing root cause analysis for every cyber threat or any
significant threat found on an endpoint. They proactively hunt for threats and
take decisive action when a security incident, either potential or in-progress,
is identified.

addressing these cyber threats and security alerts, securing organizational IT
assets and helping organizations precisely configure security policies for
enhanced protection.
Overall, MDR is crucial in transforming organizational information
security strategies. It acts as a specialized service developed to manage
complex IT networks and helps organizations combat sophisticated
vulnerabilities.
