Outcome · Threats that get caught

Detection that actually detects.

Antivirus tells you what already happened. EDR/XDR tells you what is happening — across endpoints, cloud workloads, identities, and network — and gives the team time to respond before it becomes a board-level incident.

// 01 · Why this matters now

The problem we solve.

Most security teams find out about breaches the same way the <em>public does</em>.

Signature-based antivirus catches yesterday's malware. Modern adversaries do not bring malware, they bring stolen credentials, living-off-the-land techniques, and lateral movement that looks indistinguishable from normal admin activity.

The defensive answer is multi-vector telemetry, behavioural detection, and a SOC that runs the loop 24/7, not a console with red lights nobody is watching.

// 02 · What you'll have

A posture you can prove.

Detection at the speed adversaries actually move, with the SOC to act on it.

// 03 · Detection vectors

Four telemetry vectors. One correlation engine.

XDR widens the picture. Stopping at the endpoint misses lateral movement, identity abuse, and cloud-side attack paths, so we light up four telemetry sources and correlate across them.

// vec.01

Endpoint

Process trees, behavioural baselines, on-host containment, the EDR fundamentals, tuned per environment.

// vec.02

Cloud workload

AWS, Azure, on-prem virtualisation, runtime visibility, config drift, suspicious API calls.

// vec.03

Identity

Stolen credentials, impossible-travel logins, privilege escalation, IDP and directory telemetry correlated.

// vec.04

Network

East-west traffic anomalies, DNS, beaconing, the lateral movement signal AV alone never sees.

// 04 · In practice

What this looks like delivered.

A typical engagement runs 4–6 weeks of onboarding (agent deployment, log source integration, baseline tuning) followed by 8 weeks of fine-tuning before steady-state SOC operations.

// 06 · FAQ

Honest questions.

Q.01How is EDR/XDR different from AV?

Signature-based AV catches yesterday's malware. EDR/XDR uses behavioural detection, ML correlation, and threat intel across endpoints, cloud workloads, identities, and network, catching the techniques modern adversaries actually use.

Q.02What does onboarding look like?

4–6 weeks of onboarding covers agent deployment, log source integration, and baseline tuning. A further 8 weeks of fine-tuning brings the detection signal-to-noise ratio down before steady-state SOC operations.

Q.03Who runs the SOC, your team or ours?

Ours. The SOC analyst bench is composed from our Outsourcing service, named tier-1, tier-2, and tier-3 engineers covering 24/7 shifts, with full visibility into your tooling and runbooks.

Q.04Does this cover cloud workloads or only endpoints?

Both. Telemetry sources span endpoints, cloud workloads (AWS, Azure, on-prem virtualised), identity (AD/IDP), and network, XDR means the correlation crosses vectors instead of stopping at the endpoint.

Q.05What about regulator reporting?

Detection-to-report flow is built in. Most KSA cyber incidents now require board notification within hours. The platform produces the artefacts the regulator and the board both need, without a separate reporting workstream.
