Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
In today’s rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape, organizations face increasingly sophisticated attacks that can bypass traditional security measures. Wavestrong’s Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service delivers enterprise-grade security operations to businesses of all sizes, acting as a seamless extension of your internal security team.
Our MDR service combines advanced technology with human expertise to provide continuous 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, and active response capabilities. Unlike traditional managed security services that merely alert you to potential threats, Wavestrong MDR takes immediate action to contain and neutralize threats before they can impact your business.
Why Managed Detection & Response (MDR) Matters
The cybersecurity landscape has fundamentally changed. With the dramatic rise in ransomware attacks, supply chain compromises, and zero-day vulnerabilities, organizations can no longer rely solely on preventive security measures. Consider these sobering statistics:
- The average time to identify a breach is 207 days, with another 73 days to contain it
- 60% of small businesses close within six months of a major cyber attack
- Ransomware attacks occur every 11 seconds, with average recovery costs exceeding $1.85 million
Wavestrong’s MDR service dramatically reduces detection and response times, providing the critical capabilities needed to identify threats early and respond decisively. By combining 24/7 monitoring with active threat hunting and rapid response, we help protect your organization’s data, reputation, and bottom line.
