Mandiant Managed Defense - Managed Threat Detection

What is Mandiant Managed Defense?

Mandiant Managed Defense is a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service from Google Cloud. Mandiant’s experienced security analysts monitor your entire IT environment around the clock and actively respond to detected threats. The service is built on Mandiant’s frontline intelligence from thousands of incident response engagements worldwide.

Unlike traditional managed security services, Managed Defense goes beyond pure alerting. Analysts investigate incidents, conduct threat hunting, and initiate concrete countermeasures.

• Proactive threat hunting: Active search for attackers based on current frontline intelligence
• Multi-cloud coverage: Monitoring of Google Cloud, AWS, Azure, and on-premise environments
• Direct response: Analysts initiate countermeasures, not just notifications
