McAfee announced that it is partnering with ECS to offer managed threat detection and response capabilities through McAfee MVISION EDR. ECS is the first North American MDR partner for McAfee MVISION EDR and will leverage MVISION EDR and supporting vendors to deliver a scalable, repeatable and customizable program that enables organizations to focus on only verified threats.

"Protecting an organization against threats and attacks is a difficult endeavor that requires innovative technology coupled with technical know-how," said Anand Ramanathan, vice president of product and marketing, McAfee.

"We have a rich history of working with McAfee to defend some of the most important endpoints in North America," said Andy Woods, vice president of enterprise managed services at ECS. "This MDR offering with McAfee MVISION EDR is another step in the direction of building on our relationship and providing our customers with the industry leading products and solutions that they need to enable their businesses and operations to run effectively."

McAfee and ECS have partnered for years to deliver managed endpoint security and monitoring for up to 1.4 million endpoints for the U.S. Army.

ECS leverages the powerful capabilities of McAfee MVISION EDR augmenting with security orchestration, automation, security analytics, threat intelligence platform and refined SOC practices.

According to a Gartner report, Ask These Critical Questions and Consider These Risks When Selecting an MDR Provider, when looking for an MDR solution organizations should ask themselves questions like, "Do we need the provider to ensure service continuity, recovery and resiliency of its operations? If it has an issue and cannot provide 24/7 monitoring and response of threats as contracted, that creates a gap and risk for its customers."
