Cortex XDR Managed Threat Hunting Service And New XDR Features: A Limited-Time Offer You Don't Want



To enable managed security service providers (MSSPs) that use Cortex XDR to threat hunt and perform investigations quickly, you can now use the Query Builder to query across multiple child tenants. Cortex XDR provides the tenant query selector at the top of the Query Builder with the option to select one or more child tenants.


SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The need for managed detection and response (MDR) is soaring as attack surfaces grow, cloud usage skyrockets and the cybersecurity skills gap widens. Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), the global cybersecurity leader, today introduced Unit 42 Managed Detection and Response (Unit 42 MDR) to address this need with a new service that can offer continuous 24/7 threat detection, investigation and response. This offering brings together Palo Alto Networks acclaimed Cortex XDR with Unit 42's industry-leading threat intelligence, which includes insights from incident response cases. Because Unit 42 MDR is built on Cortex XDR, it is optimized to not just prioritize alerts but also to massively reduce the number of alerts customers receive. This helps customers detect more suspicious activity than they would have otherwise.




Announcing Cortex XDR Managed Threat Hunting Service And New XDR Features



The new Unit 42 MDR service offers customers cybersecurity experts to help identify and respond to security alerts and potential threats in real time, enabling businesses to focus security operations (SecOps) personnel on other organizational security priorities. The service provides organizations with monitoring, threat hunting and response/remediation capabilities, including:


Yet while supporting MDR partners, all these EDR platforms are happy to help ease the SOC burden. They all offer managed threat hunting services over their native platforms, in CrowdStrike Falcon OverWatch, SentinelOne WatchTower, Palo Alto's Unit42. Some also have in-house MDR capabilities over their own native platforms, such as CrowdStrike Falcon Complete and Sentinel One Vigilance Respond. Palo Alto decided to solely rely on outside services for MDR, creating an MXDR partner program that launched in Nov-21.


When it comes to endpoint security, there are a variety of software solutions on the market. However, not all of these solutions are created equal. SentinelOne and managed security services like MDR offer some of the most comprehensive protection available. SentinelOne uses artificial intelligence to detect and block threats in real-time, while managed security services provide 24/7 monitoring and response to potential threats.


Binary Defense serves primarily as a Security Operations Center (SOC) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider. From an EDR and endpoint protection perspective, Binary Defense offers to take those concerns onto itself, offloading them onto its independent SOC capabilities. Additionally, it pairs EDR with technology-agnostic SIEM deployment, tuning, and monitoring services while remaining customizable. Binary Defense provides threat hunting, which works to uncover undetected threats, enhance incident response speed and accuracy, and reduce attack surfaces. 2ff7e9595c
