PowerDefend MXDR Cloud-Based Delivery
PowerDefend Based on Cisco XDR
PowerDefend MXDR is a Managed Service powered by Cisco XDR is ideal for businesses and organizations that prioritize advanced cybersecurity, operational efficiency, and a unified approach to threat detection and response
Holistic Threat Detection and Response
Cisco’s XDR capabilities integrate data from endpoints, networks, emails, servers, and cloud environments, allowing managed service providers to identify advanced threats across all attack vectors. It correlates and prioritizes alerts for actionable intelligence while reducing false positives through AI-driven analytics.
Unified Security Platform
Cisco technologies such as Secure Endpoint, Secure Network Analytics, Umbrella, Duo, and Secure Email work seamlessly under the XDR framework. This integration provides a single-pane-of-glass view for threat monitoring and incident response, reduces operational complexity by eliminating tool silos, and streamlines the deployment and management of security solutions.
Proactive Threat Hunting and Mitigation
Cisco-powered XDR, combined with a managed service provider, enables advanced threat hunting continuously conducted by security experts. AI and machine learning models detect threats early, even in encrypted traffic, while automated response actions like isolating endpoints or blocking malicious IPs occur in real time.
Enhanced Incident Response Capabilities
Cisco's rich ecosystem accelerates response times through pre-configured playbooks and automated workflows. It reduces the mean time to detect (MTTD) and respond (MTTR) to incidents, while offering granular control for forensic analysis and root cause investigation.
Scalability and Customization
System integrator-managed services ensure configurations tailored to the specific needs of your organization. Cisco XDR delivers scalable security solutions that grow with your organization’s infrastructure and evolving threat landscape.
Cost-Effective and Continuous Protection
By leveraging Cisco technology with a managed service provider, organizations benefit from 24/7 monitoring and expert security services without the need for an in-house team. Subscription-based pricing reduces upfront investments in hardware and software, while automated updates and streamlined operations lower the total cost of ownership.
Zero Trust Enablement
Cisco’s integration of Zero Trust principles enhances security through continuous verification of user and device identity via Cisco Duo. It also enforces granular access controls based on least privilege and strengthens defenses against insider threats and lateral movement.
Threat Intelligence Enrichment
Cisco’s Talos Threat Intelligence delivers real-time global threat insights for proactive defense. It provides up-to-date threat signatures and behavioral patterns while sharing intelligence to predict and mitigate emerging threats effectively.
Compliance and Reporting
Cisco XDR simplifies regulatory compliance through built-in reporting templates for frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. It offers logs and activity records essential for audits, while managed services handle ongoing compliance requirements.
Resilient Network and Business Continuity
A Cisco-based XDR managed service minimizes downtime caused by cyberattacks. Its adaptive and resilient solutions help maintain business continuity and enable organizations to recover quickly from incidents.
