F-Secure, a Finnish cybersecurity company, has unveiled the Rapid Detection & Response endpoint detection and response (EDR) solution for managed service providers (MSPs) and MSSPs.
MSPs and MSSPs can use Rapid Detection & Response to monitor customers' IT environments and their security status, according to a prepared statement.
Rapid Detection & Response offers data analysis, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning capabilities and allows MSPs and MSSPs to identify and visualize cyber threats, F-Secure said. It also comes equipped with Broad Context Detection and "Elevate to F-Secure" features.
Broad Context Detection empowers MSPs and MSSPs to evaluate security data and distinguish malicious behavior patterns from normal user behaviors, F-Secure indicated. That way, Broad Context Detection helps MSPs and MSSPs quickly identify cyberattacks.
Elevate to F-Secure provides cybersecurity guidance to MSPs and MSSPs, according to F-Secure. It leverages cybersecurity experts from F-Secure's managed detection and response (MDR) team who offer recommendations to help MSPs and MSSPs contain and remediate cyberattacks.
Rapid Detection & Response is now available via F-Secure's global network of certified partners.
