MDR, MXDR, & IR

About the Episode

The cybersecurity industry is becoming rife with acronyms – EDR, SIEM, MDR, MSSP, XDR, and now there’s MXDR.

MXDR, otherwise known as Managed Extended Detection and Response, builds on MDR and XDR to deliver 24/7 threat detection, investigation, and response at scale. Simply put, MXDR offers the benefits of XDR without the need to manage the technology in-house.

As more security providers evolve their tools, it creates an increased burden for security leaders who have to manage all these tools effectively without having enough resources in-house. This has driven more security providers to provide Managed offerings – namely through MXDR.
