Integrity360 and Darktrace partner on MDR solution

Integrity360 to offer Darktrace/Detect and Respond/Network solutions.

Integrity360 has announced a partnership with Darktrace to sell its portfolio of IT/OT services.

Acting a as a reseller, Integrity360 will initially offer the Darktrace/Detect and Respond/Network solutions as part of its managed detection and response (MDR) offering. Darktrace/Detect and Respond provide threat detection and autonomous response capabilities to address the burgeoning attack surface across the extended perimeter.

Under the terms of the agreement, Integrity360 will act as a channel partner offering the the Darktrace ActiveAI Security Platform, including its AI-powered solutions: Prevent, Detect, Respond and Heal, with the Detect and Respond Network services also available as part of Integrity360’s MDR offering. The managed service will result in Detect and Respond telemetry data fed into Integrity360's Security Operations Centres (SOCs) and supplemented with support services. Integrity360 plans to add the Darktrace/OT offering integrated with MDR later in the year.

Delivery of the Integrity360 Darktrace MDR Services involves a comprehensive assessment of the organisation’s architecture and appliances prior to Darktrace sensors being strategically placed across the network. The sensors continuously collect metadata, which is fed into the Darktrace platform where the detection engine uses advanced behavioural modelling techniques powered by ML and AI-driven threat hunting algorithms. All telemetry is then analysed in a SOAR and alerts are passed to the Integrity360 SOC team, who have complete visibility of the environment through the Darktrace Threat Visualizer console and can advise upon incident management and compliance reporting.

Brian Martin, director of product management, Integrity360, said, "Security teams are struggling to monitor increasingly complex environments and adhere to compliance frameworks amid the noise of alerts. NDR can facilitate rapid detection across these networks, giving real-time visibility into attack paths associated with ransomware, supply chain attacks, crypto-mining and insider threats, for instance. At the same time, autonomous response can help arrest the attack. But organisations don’t necessarily know what to do with that telemetry. That's where MDR comes in, providing that extra service layer over the technology to meet investigative and compliance demands. It’s a value add that turns a useful solution into an indispensable one."

Key markets for Detect and Respond include large enterprise, critical national infrastructure and associated industries, highly regulated sectors subject to strict compliance mandates, and those with high-value or sensitive data sets.

"We are thrilled to partner with Integrity360, to help strengthen their MDR offering and expand the protection Integrity360 offers." said Eloina Pesce, VP of channel, EMEA at Darktrace. "Darktrace's Self-Learning AI Engine, combined with Integrity360’s deep cybersecurity expertise and support services can provide vital, proactive, defence to customers no matter how complex their environment. We look forward to extending our partnership."
