Gartner Selects Netswitch as Representative of New
Breed of Cyber-Security Managed Detection and
Response Vendors
The Gartner Group has just issued a new market guide for Cyber-Security services
describing what it is calling “Managed Detection and Response” and naming
Netswitch Technology as a market representative provider in the space.
South San Francisco, CA, May 17, 2016 - The Gartner Group has just issued a new market guide
for Cyber-Security services describing what it is calling “Managed Detection and Response” and naming
Netswitch Technology as a market representative provider in the space.
The report, targeted to security leaders and available to Gartner subscribers was authored by senior
Gartner security analysts, Toby Bussa, Craig Lawson and Kelly M. Kavanagh, identifies new service
providers that are emerging to support organizations seeking to improve their threat detection and
incident response capabilities.
“We are delighted that Gartner has included us in this category of market leaders along with Cisco,
Raytheon and FireEye”, says Steve King, COO and Chief Security Officer of Netswitch. “Our unique SaaS
offering is based on our Securli Advanced Threat Protection platform and our SecurliXF extended threat
intelligence service. This service correlates disparate data feeds from a variety of sources both public
and proprietary to provide predictive threat intelligence along with our monitoring, incident response
and remediation capabilities. The result is actionable threat intelligence delivered on a 24x7 clock.”
As Marc van Zadelhoff, the head of IBM Security recently pointed out, “Even if the industry was able to
fill the estimated 1.5 million open cyber security jobs by 2020, we’d still have a skills crisis in security.”
Managed Detection and Response providers fill that critical security skills gap by providing expert
detection and remediation service to deal with today’s increasingly complex threats. Private businesses
and public companies will find it challenging to deal with these threats alone.
Netswitch’s business model allows them to manage the monitoring tools selected by the customer and
through their three partner SOCs - two in the U.S. and one in Hong Kong - provide 24/7 monitoring,
incident investigation, alerting and remediation services with a 15-minute response SLA. Netswitch is
predominantly used by midsize organizations today, but is also targeting enterprises with its MDR
service. The service is priced on the number of log sources and the security monitoring tools selected
from theNetswitch technology portfolio.
Gartner points out that by 2020, 15% of midsize and enterprise organizations will be using services like
MDR, up from less than 1% today. And, by 2020, 50% of worldwide MSSPs will offer MDR-type services.
Gartner recommends that IT security leaders should
1) Use MDR services to augment existing security monitoring capabilities to address gaps in advanced
threat detection and incident response before investing in more security monitoring tools (e.g., security
information and event management [SIEM], network, and host-threat detection), and associated staff
and expertise.
2) Consider managed security service providers (MSSPs) that offer MDR-like services when device
management and compliance use cases are required.
3) Look for MDR providers who can incorporate your existing security controls in the scope of their
services to improve context and coverage.
Security leaders should use this research to understand the MDR services market and it’s fit for their
security monitoring and incident response requirements.
