The I.T Team

We are dedicated to providing our clients with the most effective and sophisticated cyber security protection. Our latest partnership, with Huntress, marks a significant step in this commitment.

Huntress is a global leader in cybersecurity, and an MDR/EDR provider. Our collaboration enhances our cybersecurity offerings, building upon our extensive experience with various security solutions and bringing a new level of expertise and protection to our clients.

What is MDR and EDR?

Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) are becoming essential components in modern cybersecurity strategies.

If your IT environment is a traditional building – antivirus software, and other standard security measures, function like the building’s locks and security gates – attempting to prevent and deter an attacker from accessing your building. EDR and MDR together, are comparable to the building’s internal security system, equipped with cameras and security personnel, vigilant for any suspicious activities inside. This ensures rapid identification and response to threats that get past the initial defenses.

MDR focuses on safeguarding Microsoft 365 tenancies/environments, actively monitoring, detecting, and responding to threats within these ecosystems.

EDR targets the protection of endpoint devices (laptops etc). This layer of security is key in monitoring and responding swiftly to threats to your users’ devices and the data within.

Together, MDR and EDR offer a complete security solution ensuring quick action against any threats. This makes sure that your organisation is well-guarded against the most common cybersecurity risks.
