    [Artic Wolf SOC-as-a-Service is] great if you don't have a large team nor the time to look at all the systems in your network. They monitor 24x7x365 taking that burden away from a reduced IT team.

    • Excellent across all major tenant of incident response (detection, containment, eradication, etc.)
    • Has a strong backend support system to perform advanced incident response activities (reverse malware engineering, etc.)
    • Very scalable - no matter how small or large the incident, Managed Defense can tackle it, or escalate to Mandiant IR if the incident is complex and/or large enough.

    • Due to split from FireEye Mandiant no longer can provide its own End Point Protection as part of MDR for customers that want to transition after incident is complete .
    • Single remediation response with no-ongoing monitoring

    Their portal is easy to use and they raise important incidents to us via email or phone. They have been good with us customizing the way we want to get important information. Sometimes there is a delay between when we have resolved and issue and it is updated on the portal.

    We are a quiet shop with few incidents, however, MD's response to questions and access to our assigned MD consultant is excellent.

    The biggest issue with Crowdstrike was their sales staff - they were not very responsive. AWN does frequent check-ins with us, which helps communication. We have not had any issues with the service creating downtime. Whereas Crowdstrike had an issue in July 2024 that created many problems. This combined with the sales issues made it easy for us to go back to AWN.

    • IT/SOC time saved by monitoring alerts
    • Improved time to remediation due to 24/7 eyes on glass
    • Hopefully less impact from security incidents due to early detection and containment
