Armor, a cybersecurity and compliance solutions leader, has announced the introduction of its new service, Armor Managed Detection and Response (MDR), intended to enhance enterprise resilience against evolving cyber threats. The service integrates with leading security platforms to provide a robust risk management strategy, distinguishing itself from traditional MDR services that primarily focus on detection and response.

The Armor MDR service, in partnership with Microsoft, leverages tools like Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel to optimize threat prevention, detection, and response. This approach emphasizes adaptability in cybersecurity, a critical component in combating the sophistication of modern cyber threats. Chris Drake, Founder and CEO of Armor, highlights the necessity of strategic improvements and continuous advancements in security defense mechanisms.

Key features of the Armor MDR service include Contextual Threat Prioritization, Analytics-Powered Security Strategies, and a feedback loop integrating insights from security incident triage. This service is now available for organizations seeking enhanced defense capabilities and partners looking to boost security outcomes for their customers.
