Managed Detection and Response in 2023

Managed Detection and Response in 2023 (PDF)


Alongside other security solutions, we provide Kaspersky Managed Detection and Response (MDR) to organizations worldwide, delivering expert monitoring and incident response 24/7. The task involves collecting telemetry for analysis by both machine-learning (ML) technologies and our dedicated Security Operations Center (SOC). On detection of a security incident, SOC puts forward a response plan, which, if approved by the customer, is actioned at the endpoint protection level. In addition, our experts give recommendations on organizing incident investigation and response.


In the annual MDR report, we present the results of analysis of SOC-detected incidents, supplying answers to the following questions:


Who are your potential attackers?
How do they currently operate?
How to detect their actions?

The report covers the tactics, techniques and tools most commonly used by threat actors, the nature of high-severity incidents and their distribution among MDR customers by geography and industry.
