While third-party products and services are crucial to everyday business operations for almost any company, they also present significant security concerns, as high-profile attacks including SolarWinds and MOVEit laid bare. Trustwave research shows the attacks vary by industry but also makes clear the best defense is the stringent application of the latest security measures, including penetration tests, vulnerability scans, and managed detection and response (MDR) services.

Managed detection and response (MDR) providers often tout how quickly they can onboard new clients, and rapid onboarding can indeed be essential in many instances, but speed is not always paramount. What is crucial for long-term peace of mind is to configure the MDR service for robust detection of threats and protection of all your critical assets. This scope-of-coverage aspect can get lost as MDR providers promise to onboard clients in ever-tightening timeframes, including self-service onboarding.

Trustwave has been named a Representative Vendor in Gartner just released the 2024 Market Guide for Co-Managed Security Monitoring Services. Gartner estimates that there are more than 500 vendors who offer co-managed security monitoring services. Trustwave was listed as a Representative Vendor that does not imply an exhaustive list.

The security analyst firm Frost & Sullivan positioned Trustwave as a leader and top innovator in its research on the MDR market landscape, noting its innovative, industry-leading cloud-native Fusion platform provides visibility into cloud, network, endpoint, OT, and email environments, while its Managed Detection and Response solution will spur faster than average industry revenue growth.

Managed XDR (MXDR) is a service-led security solution that uses a wide range of telemetry sources to better unify and automate incident investigation, analysis, and response. Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is the technology at the heart of MXDR. It is a security platform that unifies telemetry across multiple security layers, such as networks, endpoints, applications, email, identities, and cloud services, into a single platform.

At CrowdStrike, we’re on a very simple mission: We stop breaches. It’s easy for us to make this claim but challenging to put into practice and maintain day in and day out. Still, we know with absolute confidence that nobody provides managed detection and response (MDR) better than our CrowdStrike Falcon® Complete MDR team. Why? Because we prioritize outcomes above all else, and we never leave customers stranded with extra work.

Alert fatigue is a long-standing problem in cybersecurity that only increases in severity as a company grows. In that sense, alert fatigue is inextricably tied to another challenge: the need for scalability in cybersecurity. Quite often, the remedy for both is to get help, such as with a managed detection and response (MDR) service that can triage, investigate, and respond to alerts. Market numbers help illustrate the scope of the issue.

Cyberattacks are evolving and growing more sophisticated, organizations are reacting to this by scaling the cybersecurity solutions they deploy to include services that go beyond threat protection. They are increasingly realizing that other factors such as monitoring and responsiveness are key to protecting their business.

Cyber threats can originate from anywhere around the globe. For services such as managed detection and response (MDR) to effectively defend against them requires a managed security service provider (MSSP) that likewise has a global footprint. The top 10 countries from which distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS) originate include China, Brazil, India, Indonesia, Russia, and Germany, according to data collected by the cloud services company Cloudflare. At the same time, the U.S.
