Key Benefits of a Risk-Based Approach to Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

Organizations today know that their cybersecurity initiatives must be designed not only to identify and protect their resources, but also to detect, respond, and recover. For a variety of reasons — both technical (e.g., threat landscape, regulatory compliance requirements) and operational (e.g., cybersecurity talent shortage, competing needs from IT budgets) — this has led to growth in the adoption of Managed Detection and Response (MDR). Join us on for this informative webinar, which features a conversation between Derek Brink, vice president and research fellow for Aberdeen Strategy & Research (a division of Spiceworks Ziff Davis) and Johnny Calhoun, senior vice president of MDR operations for Pondurance, about the key benefits of a risk-based approach to MDR. Topics include: - How much should organizations be investing in cybersecurity? How does your organization compare with others? - Key dimensions that enter into the choices and tradeoffs an organization makes to address its cybersecurity- and compliance-related risks - Drivers for partnering with trusted service providers, specifically MDR - Typical patterns of MDR relationships, from initial consultancy to a trusted extension of internal teams - A practical discussion about the value of shorter time for detection, response, and recovery
