Managed cybersecurity services and solutions for real business challenges

Managed cybersecurity services are now essential for staying ahead of fast-moving, complex threats. In 2025, protecting your business means cutting through alert noise, closing security gaps, and staying one step ahead.

That’s where managed cybersecurity solutions come in. From managed IT security services and cybersecurity as a service (CaaS) to monitoring and vulnerability assessment services, companies need trusted cybersecurity solution providers that do more than detect—they take action.

UnderDefense delivers cybersecurity services built for real risk. From MDR and SOC as a Service to cloud security, compliance, and offensive testing, we help you find and fix weaknesses before attackers strike.

You stay in control of your tools—we make them smarter. With 24/7 visibility, expert response, and proactive support, we help you stay secure, scale confidently, and stand alongside the best cybersecurity service providers.

Key types of managed cybersecurity services

The old way of handling cyber threats—waiting for alerts and reacting after the fact—just doesn’t cut it anymore. Managed cybersecurity services stay ahead of attacks, not chase them. That’s exactly what UnderDefense delivers: real-time threat detection, fast incident response, and cybersecurity support services you can trust, powered by a team that sees threats early and takes action before they escalate.

Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

Managed Detection and Response (MDR) gives businesses around-the-clock threat detection, expert investigation, and rapid response to attacks. It's built to catch and stop threats before they disrupt operations or cause serious damage.

UnderDefense delivers MDR services that combine 24/7 cybersecurity monitoring, expert threat hunting, and immediate incident response—giving you real protection, not just alerts. Our team stops attacks early and keeps your operations running securely.

Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS)

SOCaaS provides businesses with a fully operational Security Operations Center without the cost and complexity of building one internally. It delivers 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, incident investigation, and escalation support across your environments.

UnderDefense's SOCaaS team offers continuous cybersecurity monitoring services for cloud, hybrid, and on-premises infrastructures, ensuring no threat goes unnoticed and no alert is left unresolved.

Incident Response Services

Incident response services help organizations quickly investigate, contain, and recover from cyberattacks, minimizing damage and downtime. Speed, expertise, and a structured response process are critical to success.

UnderDefense specializes in rapid incident response, focusing on ransomware containment, threat eradication, and full recovery support—getting your business back on its feet faster.

Managed SIEM

Managed SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) services turn raw security data into actionable insights, combining event collection, monitoring, correlation, and alerting in one place.

UnderDefense helps businesses get real value from their SIEM platforms by fine-tuning rules, monitoring events, and actively responding to alerts, transforming your SIEM from a noisy dashboard into a real-time security advantage.

Cloud Security Services

Cloud security services focus on protecting data, applications, and infrastructures across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments. These services detect misconfigurations, secure access, and defend against cloud-native threats.

UnderDefense secures AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid cloud environments, giving you full visibility, rapid threat detection, and protection, without slowing down your cloud innovation.

Compliance Security Services

Compliance security services help organizations meet regulatory requirements such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 while improving their security posture.

At UnderDefense, our information security services are built to simplify compliance. We help design, implement, and maintain security controls that meet regulatory demands and strengthen day-to-day defense.

Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) Services

A vCISO service gives organizations access to experienced security leadership on demand, providing strategic guidance, risk management, and security program development without the need for a full-time hire.

UnderDefense offers vCISO services to help businesses align security goals with business objectives, manage evolving risks, and build strong, scalable security programs with flexible engagement models.

Penetration Testing Services

Penetration testing simulates real-world cyberattacks to uncover vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. It's an essential part of risk management and proactive defense.

UnderDefense provides thorough penetration testing across networks, applications, and cloud infrastructures, delivering clear, actionable reports that help you fix weaknesses before they become real problems.

How does UnderDefense deliver managed cybersecurity services?

Managed cybersecurity services that start before the first alert

UnderDefense helps security-conscious enterprises, mid-market companies, and regulated industries stay ahead of enterprise-level threats, especially when they don’t have a full 24/7 security team in-house.

We combine AI-native technology (UnderDefense MAXI) with expert threat hunting to catch and stop stealthy attacks like ransomware, insider breaches, APTs, supply chain compromises, and cloud threats. We customize detection, fine-tune your tools, and keep you in control, building long-term, cost-effective protection that evolves with you.

How we work: A three-phase approach
When you work with UnderDefense, onboarding isn’t just a handoff — it’s a full-cycle partnership. We start helping long before the first tool connects and stay with you every step after.

Pre-onboarding phase: Setting the foundation

Strong cybersecurity partnerships start with real preparation. Before we touch your systems, we work together to:

  • Conduct initial discovery: Meet your team and understand your business model, goals, and risks.
  • Review existing security posture: Look at your current tools, gaps, and critical assets.
  • Design a customized protection plan: Map the right managed cybersecurity solutions (MDR, SOCaaS, Managed SIEM, Compliance, Incident Response) tailored to your environment.
  • Assign your concierge team: Before onboarding begins, a dedicated team of security analysts, engineers, and success leads is assigned.

Onboarding phase: Connecting and protecting

Once the strategy is set, we start integrating and optimizing your environment:

  • Tool and platform integration: Connect your SIEMs, EDRs, cloud platforms, and networks to our SOAR-driven UnderDefense MAXI platform for real-time visibility.
  • Fine-tuning and rule optimization: Adjust detection rules and response playbooks to fit your unique systems and risks.
  • Go live with 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting: Active monitoring across cloud, hybrid, and on-prem environments begins.
  • Incident response playbook setup: Build clear escalation paths and custom response strategies so no time is wasted when threats surface.

Post-onboarding phase: Continuous protection and improvement

Once you’re live, we stay fully engaged — not just monitoring, but proactively improving your defenses:

  • 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting: Our team monitors the area around the clock, looking for known threats and early warning signs.
  • Automated and expert-led incident response: When incidents happen, we act immediately, with human experts in the loop.
  • Ongoing reporting and analytics: Regular reports give you visibility into threats, incidents, trends, and recommendations.
  • Continuous improvement and advisory: We don’t just monitor; we recommend ongoing improvements based on real-world intelligence.
  • Proactive security reviews: Periodic health checks and tuning sessions to keep your security posture strong as your business evolves.

How does managed security improve business resilience?

Companies today face more pressure than ever: relentless cyberattacks, expanding cloud environments, growing compliance demands, and rising operational costs.

UnderDefense was built to help businesses turn these cybersecurity challenges into real advantages. With AI-powered automation and expert threat hunting, we help organizations strengthen defenses, cut costs, and stay compliant—all while staying one step ahead of threats.

Here’s how we help your security grow smarter, not just bigger:

Strengthen your security infrastructure

Legacy defenses can’t keep up with modern attacks. UnderDefense helps optimize and fine-tune your existing tools, boosting performance without ripping and replacing your whole environment. Our UnderDefense MAXI platform connects across 250+ integrations, cuts false positives by up to 99%, and delivers 360-degree visibility across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises systems.

Cut operational costs and maximize ROI

Security shouldn’t drain your budget. UnderDefense reduces alert fatigue, streamlines your security stack, and eliminates unnecessary complexity—delivering up to 830% ROI over three years. For many clients, we’ve cut alert noise by over 80% and slashed security costs by 40% through tool optimization and workload reduction.

Respond faster to threats

Speed matters. With UnderDefense MAXI, our average alert-to-triage time is under two minutes, and threat containment averages just 15 minutes. Thus, with AI-powered enrichment and 24/7 SOC experts' contributions, we respond via Slack/Teams 10x faster than industry norms.

Simplify compliance and audit readiness

Security is only half the battle—regulations keep tightening. UnderDefense helps you stay ahead with built-in compliance controls, automated evidence collection, and real-time reporting. Preparing for audits becomes faster, easier, and far less stressful.

Build a resilient, mature cybersecurity program

We don’t just respond to today’s threats—we help you grow into a stronger security posture over time. Our services are designed to mature continuously, moving you closer to Level 5 SOC Maturity, where your defenses are proactive, predictive, and fully optimized for evolving risks.

Test your defenses to strengthen your strategy

Defense is only half the equation. UnderDefense offers advanced offensive security services—like penetration testing, red teaming, and adversary emulation—to simulate real-world attacks and uncover blind spots. By thinking like an attacker, we help you fix weaknesses before they’re exploited and strengthen your defenses from the inside out.

What to look for in a trusted cybersecurity service provider

Choosing the right cybersecurity partner isn’t just about tools or pricing—it’s about trust, expertise, and long-term value. Whether you're evaluating managed cybersecurity services for the first time or switching from a legacy provider, it helps to know what sets the best cybersecurity service providers apart.

Here’s what to look for when selecting a partner you can rely on:

Proven experience across environments

Look for a provider with experience across cloud, hybrid, and on-prem infrastructure. The best cybersecurity solution providers deliver managed cybersecurity services that adapt to your business, not the other way around.

24/7 Human-led monitoring and real-time response

You need more than dashboards. A trusted cybersecurity partner offers always-on cybersecurity monitoring services, backed by real experts who take action, not just send alerts.

Customization and tool optimization

Your provider should fine-tune detection rules, integrate with your existing platforms, and actively reduce alert noise. The right partner won’t force you to replace your tools—they’ll make them work better.

Transparent pricing and clear ROI

Top cybersecurity companies are upfront about costs. Look for managed cybersecurity solutions that scale with you and deliver measurable results, like reduced risk, faster response, and lower operational costs.

Built-in compliance support

Whether it’s PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, or SOC 2, information security services should include controls, evidence collection, and reporting to help you stay compliant without the stress.

Offensive and defensive capabilities

Choose a provider who can both defend and test your defenses. Leading partners offer penetration testing, red teaming, and advanced threat simulation—so you can close gaps before attackers find them.

Operational maturity you can notice

You want a cybersecurity provider with more than just certifications—you want a team that’s seen real-world threats, tuned hundreds of environments, and knows how to respond fast under pressure. A mature provider brings deep operational experience and discipline across every layer of service delivery.

Clear communication, consistent support

Great cybersecurity support feels like part of your team. Look for providers with clear handoff processes, named points of contact, and well-orchestrated communication—especially when it matters most.

Proactive guidance and informative reporting

You need more than alerts. The right provider delivers regular, actionable reports, threat trends, and forward-looking recommendations—so you’re not just reacting, you’re making smarter decisions with real visibility.
