Security teams are overstretched, and traditional operations can't keep pace. Selecting a managed detection and response (MDR) partner to multiply your resource-constrained team is a critical, complex decision. To choose a strategic, transformative partner — not just a vendor — you need a clear vetting framework.

For CISOs and SOC leaders alike, the Managed Services Buyer’s Guide delivers the practical structure you need to measurably improve your security posture and scale with your growth.

What you’ll take away:

  • The High-Performer Checklist: Key capabilities that separate top-tier MDR from the rest.
  • Zero-Compromise Vetting: Avoid the hidden traps and select a provider aligned with your long-term goals.
  • The Right Questions to Ask: Specific questions to ask to ensure you’re selecting the right partner for now and into the future.
