The Company was recognized as a Representative Vendor in the 2021 report for the 4th year in a row
Seattle, WA ‒ November 10, 2020 ‒ Critical Insight, a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service provider specializing in protecting the networks of life-saving organizations and critical infrastructure, announced that it has been recognized in the 2021 Gartner “Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response Services” report. Critical Insight was named in the Managed Detection and Response category.”1
Critical Insight has been recognized as a Representative Vendor by Gartner for the fourth year in a row in the 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response Services. The company was previously recognized under the company’s former name, CI Security.
“MDR service providers offer a turnkey experience, using a predefined technology stack (covering areas such as endpoint, network and cloud services) to collect relevant logs, data and contextual information,” the 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response Services explains. “This telemetry is analyzed within the provider’s platform using a range of techniques. This process allows for investigation by experts skilled in threat hunting and incident management, who deliver actionable outcomes.”
Critical Insight is redefining the detection and response category by proving MDR is more than just eyes-on-glass. It’s everything to do with an incident. Pre-Incident planning (tabletop exercises, playbooks, clear IR plans), the identification of an incident, and then the resolution of that incident through response and recovery. Critical Insight includes options for organizations to choose from a set of affordable services aimed at preventing, defending, and recovering from an attack.
Critical Insight now offers automated response and manual incident response (IR) with a specialist 24×7, significantly reducing the impact of a breach and allowing customers to sleep better at night. Based on research, Critical Insight will be the first organization to offer this approach to clients within the defined MDR/EDR space. Critical Insight is redefining MDR, providing organizations with multi-faceted solutions to prepare (security risk assessments, awareness training, continuous vulnerability identification), identify (MDR, EDR, Office 365 monitoring), and resolve (IR playbook, regular tabletop exercises, IR retainer, Rapid Quarantine) incidents.
