Huntress

Who are Huntress?

With a powerful blend of purpose-built technology and human expertise, Huntress works with IT providers to monitor for suspicious activity, detect potential threats, and stop hackers in their tracks. By partnering with Huntress, we are able to provide enterprise-grade protection for a fraction of the cost. This means you don’t need to stress about cybersecurity because you have a 24/7 team of experts watching your back.

Why do we need it?

Hackers are getting smarter – it’s not a matter of just having an antivirus to protect your organisation any more. They’re finding new ways to avoid detection and breach environments. To stay protected, organisations must be able to determine weaknesses in their infrastructure, detect when there’s a potential breach, and so much more.

How does the Huntress solution work?

With a powerful blend of purpose-built technology and human expertise, Huntress works with IT providers to monitor for suspicious activity, isolate machines to stop hackers in their tracks, and proactively remediate endpoints to eliminate threats. Using a lightweight agent monitored by a 24/7 human-led security operation centre (SOC) Huntress quickly detects, investigates, and responds when cyber threats arise.

What is Huntress ITDR?

Huntress Managed Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) is a fully managed security service that monitors and protects your Microsoft 365 identities around the clock.

It detects and responds to threats like:

• Credential Theft – Stops attackers from exploiting stolen usernames and passwords.
• Session Hijacking – Prevents unauthorised access via stolen session tokens.
• Rogue OAuth Apps – Identifies and removes malicious third-party apps.
• Location & VPN Anomalies – Flags suspicious login behaviour.
• Business Email Compromise (BEC) – Protects inboxes from takeover attempts.

What is EDR?

Here’s a sobering stat from our partners Huntress: 70% of breaches are attributable to compromised endpoints.

The number of endpoints needing protection has exploded with the rise of remote work. But without the right protection, each and every network-connected printer, laptop, desktop, and even smartwatch becomes an exploitable entry point.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions serve as a vital line of defence, providing comprehensive, multi-layered protection to detect, analyse, and remediate intrusions.

EDR goes beyond traditional endpoint security like antivirus (AV) software. With EDR, you get a comprehensive detection and response solution capable of identifying unknown threats across your endpoints, while AV solutions only scan for known malware.
