An MDR service hands your alerts to an outside team that investigates and often acts for you. armor360 gives your own team an AI analyst for the first look, and keeps the work, the evidence and the data with you.
If you have no security staff, MDR gives you analysts from day one, without hiring or training.
The provider can act on a confirmed attack at night, which matters most when nobody on your side is on call.
Good providers see many environments and bring that experience to your alerts and hunts.
People, process and often tooling come together in one service, which is simple to buy and budget.
MDR solves a real problem: it puts experienced people on your alerts without hiring them. These are the reasons teams that already have some security staff start to look at other ways.
You often see the conclusion and a summary, not each query the provider ran or each record it read. That makes a verdict hard to check or explain to an auditor.
The provider works across many customers. What a server does for you, and which systems matter most, has to be taught and kept up to date from outside.
Many services isolate machines or disable accounts on your behalf. Fast, but the business impact of that step is decided by people who do not run your business.
Alerts and log excerpts go to the provider’s platform, and fees usually grow with endpoints, users or data volume as you grow.
Each verdict comes with the records it rests on. Your team, or an auditor, can follow exactly what was checked and why the agent reached its conclusion.
The alert, the machine and accounts, the data sources read, each question asked and the verdict are drawn as one map, with the path that backs the verdict in red.
You tell armor360 what each machine does, which business processes it serves and who to call. Verdicts and campaigns then show what is at risk in business terms.
Alerts from the same activity are joined into one campaign with its stages in order and one plan, where each step waits for a person’s approval.
On-premises, the platform and its AI model run on your own hardware. An illustrated example of what stays inside.
Put armor360 on the same alerts your provider sees, free, and compare its verdicts with theirs.
If the provider acts at night today, agree who takes those decisions with armor360: an on-call rota, or a narrower MDR contract for response only.
Record what each machine does and who owns it at set-up, so context lives with your data, not with a third party.
Move alert sources one by one as your team’s agreement with the verdicts holds, keeping the provider until you are ready.
When you have no security team of your own and want an outside team to watch, investigate and act for you, including taking response actions at night. armor360 does not take actions and needs people of yours to review its verdicts.
When you have people who should own security decisions, want alert data to stay in your network, need to show auditors the working behind each verdict, or want the first look to happen as alerts arrive rather than in a provider’s queue.
Yes. Some teams keep a provider for response at night and use armor360 so their own people see and understand every investigation. Others run both side by side during a pilot to compare verdicts before deciding.
Your people. armor360 gives the verdict, the evidence and recommended next steps, and can send urgent findings to the person on call. The step itself, such as taking a machine off the network, is taken by someone on your side with the authority to take it.
Not when it runs on-premises: the platform and its AI model run on your hardware, and external AI fallback can be switched off. If you choose the hosted service, it reads from your tools over the connections you set up.
By quote, sized to what you protect, with no charge per person who reviews. Running the investigations costs about $0.10 of compute each on your own hardware, which is a running-cost estimate, not our price.
