Managed Security Services (MSS) are outsourced solutions provided by cybersecurity experts to monitor, detect, prevent, and respond to security threats 24/7. They give organizations enterprise-grade protection without the need to build an in-house SOC.
MSS typically includes:
-
24/7 threat monitoring and incident response
-
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
-
Endpoint, network, and cloud security management
-
Vulnerability management and patching
-
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)
-
Threat intelligence and proactive hunting
-
Compliance and reporting support
Unlike general IT support, MSS focuses exclusively on cybersecurity. It uses advanced threat intelligence, behavioral analytics, and real-time monitoring to defend against sophisticated attacks, ensuring a proactive rather than reactive approach.
