At Corelight, we’re thrilled when a respected cybersecurity leader like Mandiant introduces a new offering based on our solution. This week, Mandiant Managed Defense unveiled support for Corelight Open NDR, a move that strengthens our existing relationship and integration across the Google Cloud Security portfolio. By combining our expertise in network evidence with Mandiant's Managed Defense, we are uniquely positioned to help organizations bolster their defenses against even the most sophisticated cyber threats.
The pace of change in modern organizations is relentless, as are the threats that target it. The emergence of well-funded and increasingly sophisticated adversaries, coupled with the complexity of hybrid, multi-cloud environments, presents a significant challenge for organizations striving to maintain a secure environment. The persistent shortage of skilled cybersecurity analysts further complicates this situation, driving many organizations to seek assistance from managed security vendors to bolster their internal Security Operations Center (SOC) teams. This is where our collaboration with Mandiant shines!
This integrated solution empowers the Mandiant Managed Defense team with Corelight’s unique visibility and detection capabilities to shift the advantage back to defenders. With Corelight’s effectiveness in identifying threats faster with our innovative open NDR technology and Mandiant's prowess in 24/7 managed detection and response, joint customers will have a powerful solution to help maintain a higher level of protection.
We are truly inspired by Mandiant’s trust in Corelight’s ability to provide rich, high-fidelity network data that enables SOC teams to identify threats at every stage of an attack. Whether it’s early-stage reconnaissance or a full-scale breach, the combination of Corelight’s evidence-driven approach and Mandiant’s frontline experts ensures that security teams can not only detect but also proactively respond to even the most pernicious advanced and emerging threats.
For Mandiant Managed Defense clients, this partnership offers two primary benefits. First, it enhances the capabilities of Mandiant’s renowned team of experts by giving them access to Corelight’s correlated alerts, logs, and selective packet data. This rich network evidence enables more effective threat hunting, faster investigations, and more accurate incident response, all of which contribute to keeping client environments secure.
Secondly, Mandiant clients can offload much of the heavy lifting and augment their internal SOC teams with Mandiant’s threat hunting, detection, and response expertise. With Mandiant experts providing a highly capable backstop to an organization’s SOC team, in-house analysts can focus more on high-priority tasks instead of working through the mountain of alerts generated across their security stack. This additional bench strength will allow internal teams to work more efficiently and effectively, while lowering the risk of missing critical threats.
We initially announced our mission-focused strategic partnership with Mandiant last fall, and this week’s announcement at Mandiant’s 2024 mWISE conference in Denver builds on that momentum. Our combined expertise, advanced technologies, and shared commitment to delivering exceptional security solutions will ensure that more organizations are better equipped to outpace the threats they face. Together, we’re enabling defenders to take back control with unparalleled visibility and actional insights across their network environments.
