Contain threats faster and cut attacker dwell time from days to minutes. Virteva runs Microsoft Defender XDR as a managed detection and response service, which means response is included. When Defender flags a compromised identity or endpoint, our Minnesota-based analysts investigate and contain it, then hand you a documented incident, not a notification and a problem to solve yourself.
Defender XDR is four products under one name: Defender for Endpoint, Office 365, Identity, and Cloud Apps. Most teams buy it through E5, deploy the agents, and stall in the noisy default state. We turn it into a service: detections tuned to your environment, response playbooks mapped to Defender’s automated investigation so low-severity events resolve themselves and analysts get to what matters, licensing placed against the SKUs you actually need, and Sentinel integrated where SIEM correlation adds value. Tuning typically cuts alert volume by 60 to 70 percent while raising the signal.
Detection and response sit under one roof here, on your own Microsoft licenses, run by a US-based team you can call. There is no separate vendor to hand an incident to and no offshore queue between you and an analyst.
This is the managed Defender XDR product layer. For the full SOC operating model, the broader Defender suite, or the human-risk layer, see the related services below.
