WatchGuard Managed Detection & Response (MDR)

MDR is a fully managed service that secures every part of your environment, including devices, user accounts, cloud applications, and the traffic between them. Instead of sending you unnecessary alerts, it filters noise, investigates threats, and responds on your behalf. It’s 24/7 protection powered by WatchGuard's Unified Security Platform, so every signal connects, every response is faster, and every action is visible in one place.

MDR goes beyond alerting. It combines continuous monitoring, expert investigation, and real threat response in one service. Instead of handing you alerts to handle on your own, MDR validates threats and takes action to contain them, day or night.

WatchGuard MDR provides 24/7 monitoring, investigation, and real-time threat containment across devices, user identities, cloud services, and network. AI and human analysts work together to reduce noise, stop attacks quickly, and give you clear visibility and reporting through one unified platform.

WatchGuard offers options based on your coverage needs. Core MDR and Core MDR for Microsoft focus on endpoints and Microsoft 365, but threats that move through identity, cloud, or the network may still be missed. Total MDR covers the full WatchGuard stack coverage across endpoint, identity, network, and cloud. Open MDR fits mixed environments that rely on third-party tools.
