Why Choose eSentire MDR over BlueVoyant MDR

eSentire's cost-effective all-in-one MDR solution combines cutting-edge open XDR technology, unlimited threat hunting and unlimited incident handling, and multi-signal coverage with over 300 technology integrations to support your existing tech stack.

Here are some key differences between eSentire MDR and BlueVoyant MDR:

1

24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC)

BlueVoyant SOC team has considerably less experience and fewer SOC Analysts. Retention in SOC teams is critical as it takes significant time to retrain new analysts. This may result in missed alerts and reduced quality of threat response.

In contrast, our 24/7 SOC Cyber Analysts are an extension of your team. We have over 130 SOC team members that have an average tenure of 6 years with a 90% retention rate. Our team proudly holds advanced certifications including SSCP, CSAP, CISSP, Security+, Network+, Linux+, Server+, and more. As part of eSentire MDR, our SOC team provides immediate expertise, peace of mind and hands-on assistance to remediate threats on your behalf when and where you need it.

Multi-Signal Visibility and Response

BlueVoyant response and remediation strategies beyond endpoint security lack clarity and comprehensiveness. These gaps in coverage could leave critical areas of your attack surface exposed to identity and network-based threats. Additionally, BlueVoyant MDR provides limited visibility into cloud environments, further exposing your organization to threats. BlueVoyant’s lack of published Service Level Agreements (SLAs) or Service Level Objectives (SLOs) makes their commitment to measurable and reliable MDR service delivery unclear.

At eSentire, we believe a multi-signal approach is paramount to protecting your complete attack surface. We ingest high-fidelity data sources from endpoint, network, log, cloud, identity, and vulnerability data that enables complete attack surface visibility.

eSentire owns the R in MDR by disrupting, isolating, and stopping threats on your behalf across your full attack surface with a Mean Time to Contain of less than 15 minutes. We detect in seconds and contain in minutes, so your business is never disrupted.

Best-of-Breed Technology Partners

BlueVoyant focuses on Microsoft integration and professional services, which results in a lack of breadth in their technology integration capabilities. The limited integration opportunities may limit BlueVoyant’s MDR service effectiveness in diverse technological environments.

eSentire MDR service supports 300+ technology integrations, including Microsoft. We integrate seamlessly with the existing tools and SaaS platforms in your environment to enable continuous monitoring across your hybrid footprint, ingestion of high-fidelity data sources, and 24/7 protection from sophisticated known and unknown cyber threats with proactive threat hunts.

The nice thing with eSentire is that they’re always looking at my network, my environment, and everything that’s coming through. I can sleep at night. I don’t need to have a 24/7 SOC. I know that my network is being looked at and if they see something that they deem to be a threat, they can prevent it, or block it and stop it, and get a hold of my team if needed.
