eSentire vs. Mandiant Managed Defense

We need 7x24x365 network monitoring and proactive protection. eSentire can thwart an active attack which is the most critical part of the service. Unless you have your own SOC and have the ability to address potential breaches in your environment, you need a service like this. Most companies can't afford to run their own SOC.
