Managed Detection and Response Services
Comprehensive MDR Solutions for Protection Against Evolving Cyberattacks
What is a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Service?
Our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service keeps your business safe from cyber threats. Unlike traditional security, MDR offers 24/7 monitoring, advanced detection tools, and a team of cybersecurity experts who actively look for and respond to threats in your IT environment.
With our Managed Detection and Response service, you receive real-time alerts about risks, expert threat analysis, and quick actions to stop cyberattacks before they harm your business. We help identify unusual activity, neutralize threats, and provide clear insights, ensuring your organization stays secure while you focus on your work.
How MDR Works
Managed Detection and Response uses human analysts to detect and respond to attacks that bypass EDR and other automated security tools. MDR services combine network visualization, tradecraft detection, and endpoint security to rapidly detect and neutralize lateral movement in its earliest stages.
Cost of an SMB Cyber Attack: $120,000 to $1.24M

Key Benefits of Managed Detection and Response Services
24/7 Proactive Threat Monitoring
Managed detection and response provides continuous monitoring of your IT environment. This means that potential threats are detected and addressed in real-time, ensuring that no suspicious activity goes unnoticed, even during off-hours or holidays.
Rapid Threat Detection and Response
With MDR, your business benefits from advanced detection technologies that identify threats as soon as they occur. The rapid response capabilities of MDR mean that threats can be contained and neutralized immediately.
Incident Handling
Managed detection & response services include access to a team of cybersecurity experts who are skilled in incident handling and response. These professionals manage the entire lifecycle of an incident—from detection to neutralization—ensuring that threats are handled swiftly and effectively.
Comprehensive Security Coverage
MDR offers a holistic approach to security, covering a wide range of potential threats, including malware, ransomware, phishing attacks, and insider threats. This comprehensive coverage helps protect your entire IT environment, including networks, endpoints, Microsoft 365, and more.
Reduced Operational Costs
By outsourcing your threat detection and response, your business can significantly reduce the costs associated with maintaining an in-house security team. Managed detection & response allows you to leverage expert services without the overhead of hiring a cybersecurity team.
Enhanced Compliance
For businesses in regulated industries, maintaining compliance with data protection and privacy regulations is critical. MDR services help ensure that your security practices meet the required standards, reducing the risk of non-compliance and potential fines.
Scalability and Flexibility
MDR services are designed to scale with your business as it grows. Whether you’re a small business or a large enterprise, MDR can be tailored to meet your specific security needs, ensuring that your defenses evolve alongside your organization.
Peace of Mind
Perhaps the most valuable benefit of MDR is the peace of mind it offers. Knowing that your business is continuously monitored and protected by a team of experts allows you to focus on what matters most—running your business—without worrying about cyber threats.

Frequently Asked Questions: Managed Detection and Response Services
How Much Does Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Cost?
The cost of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services varies depending on factors such as the size of your organization, the complexity of your IT environment, and the level of service you require. For a quote, contact us to learn how our MDR services can fit your budget and security needs.
What is the Difference Between EDR and MDR?
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) are both cybersecurity solutions, but they serve different purposes.
EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response):
EDR focuses on detecting and responding to threats on individual devices like workstations, laptops, and servers. It uses advanced tools to find harmful activity, isolate infected devices, and gather detailed information for analysis. However, EDR usually needs an internal cybersecurity team to manage and respond to alerts effectively.
MDR (Managed Detection and Response):
MDR is a more comprehensive solution that includes EDR as part of a larger service. MDR provides 24/7 monitoring, active threat hunting, and expert help during incidents across an entire organization’s IT environment, not just on individual devices. It is fully managed by cybersecurity professionals, allowing businesses to handle threat detection and response without needing their own security team.
EDR is a tool, while MDR is a service that combines tools like EDR with expert support to provide complete threat protection. At Verity IT, our MDR service ensures your business has both the technology and support to stay secure.
What is the Difference Between MDR and SOC?
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and Security Operations Center (SOC) differ in structure and delivery:
MDR is an outsourced service offering 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, and expert-led response. It’s ideal for businesses without in-house security teams, focusing on quick, actionable threat remediation.
SOC is a centralized team or facility (in-house or outsourced) that monitors and manages an organization’s security operations, requiring significant resources and infrastructure.
Basically, MDR provides end-to-end threat protection as a service, while a SOC is a team or setup for overall security monitoring and management. MDR is often more cost-effective for small to medium-sized businesses.
