MXDR Buyer’s Guide
Download the complete guide to evaluating Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) solutions. Cut through the noise, ask the right questions to make an informed decision.
Why You Need This Guide
Not all MXDR solutions are created equal. Many vendors promise “detection and response” but deliver nothing more than alert triage. Make your next security investment one that truly responds.
Identify your security challenges
Pinpoint the gaps holding back your security operations — whether it’s lack of 24/7 coverage, slow response times, alert overload, or limited in-house expertise.
Explore core MXDR capabilities
From advanced behavioral analytics and AI-driven detection to human-led investigation, containment, and remediation — see what true MXDR should deliver.
Evaluate MXDR providers with confidence
Use our structured evaluation matrix to compare providers on what really matters: coverage, response depth, integration, and service flexibility.
Understand where MXDR fits
Break down the differences between various security models. Learn how MXDR complements your existing tools — and when it’s the smarter choice.
What’s Inside?
Understand the fundamentals of MXDR
Get clear on what sets MXDR apart from traditional detection and response. Learn how it unifies telemetry across your stack to deliver full-scope visibility and faster detection.
Identify your security gaps
Use our guided checklist to pinpoint the most pressing security challenges in your organization. Know exactly what to look for in an MXDR provider based on your needs.
Evaluate real coverage, not just promises
Learn how to assess a provider’s ability to detect, investigate, and respond across cloud, endpoint, identity, and SaaS.
Go beyond alerts: measure true response
Some providers notify. Others act. We help you evaluate how hands-on a vendor gets — from automation through SOAR to real-time, human-led containment.
Understand the role of people, process, and AI
Explore what to expect from 24/7 SOC teams, direct analyst access, and how AI, ML, and automation power faster, more effective outcomes.
Compare vendors with confidence
Use our expert-built evaluation matrix to compare vendors across critical criteria: threat intelligence depth, response speed, customization, and compliance readiness.
