ESET MDR

ESET Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service provides 24/7 threat monitoring, detection and incident response, combining AI with human expertise to protect your business from cyber threats. ESET MDR prevents breaches and ransomware attacks. The service identifies malicious activities and creates incidents—a set of alarms and detections. If the attack pattern is confirmed, the service will stop its escalation and block further access to the customer’s environment from unauthorized threat actors. ESET MDR provides an immediate view of incidents, countermeasures, and monitor activities. The service sends critical notifications, weekly and monthly, to the login email address (ESET MDR report).

ESET MDR provides an overview of incidents and detections from ESET Inspect. To use ESET MDR, you need an ESET Inspect license and the ESET PROTECT MDR tier.
