XMA
IT solutions provider XMA secures its operating footprint with 24x7 Managed Detection and Response services from Six Degrees.
Speak to an ExpertXMA is a growing IT solutions provider with a large and complex IT estate. Operating in today’s high-risk threat landscape, the business needed to improve its overall cyber security posture – strengthening detection capabilities, reducing incident response times, and gaining continuous visibility over its environment.
Internally, XMA’s cyber security team recognised a growing volume of security events and the limitations of relying solely on in-house tools and personnel. Manual analysis of threat data was becoming increasingly unmanageable, leading to concerns over missed threats and delayed response times. The business wanted reassurance that its environment was being continuously monitored and protected, with any potential
compromise swiftly identified, investigated, and remediated.
Furthermore, XMA sought a solution that could go beyond alerting – delivering threat intelligence, real-time human analysis, and hands-on investigation of potentially high-impact incidents. A key requirement was to partner with a provider that could operate as an extension of their team, contributing technical expertise while supporting the fine-tuning of detection and response strategies over time.
XMA secures its operating footprint with 24x7 Managed Detection and Response services from Six Degrees.
