Integrity360 partners Darktrace

Pan-European cyber security specialists, Integrity360 is partnering Darktrace to help organizations address the burgeoning threats of surface attacks across the extended perimeter.

Under the terms of the agreement, Integrity360 will act as a channel partner offering the entirety of 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 Managed Detection and Response (MDR) offering. 

 

The managed service will see 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, consolidating Integrity360’s reputation as a leading MDR provider.
 
“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 organizations 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,” says Brian Martin, Director of Product Management, Integrity360.

Integrity360’s MDR enables customers to select the right combination of XDR, SIEM, EDR and NDR technologies for them, depending upon the size of the organization, its risk profile and compliance requirements. 

 

The Darktrace technologies will be offered across three incrementally advanced managed service tiers including: Managed Platform – an entry level offering for those looking for an optimally implemented, monitored, and managed NDR platform with alert forwarding; Managed Threat Detection – adds SOAR integration, threat intelligence enrichment, alert triage, incident investigation and notification, and ongoing alert tuning; and Managed Detection and Response – adds response and containment, proactive threat hunting, and threat intelligence reporting.

Delivery of the Integrity360 Darktrace MDR Services involves a comprehensive assessment of the organization’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 by virtue of the Darktrace Threat Visualizer console and can advise upon incident management and compliance reporting.
 
“We are thrilled to partner with Integrity360, to help strengthen their MDR offering and expand the protection Integrity360 offers,” says Eloina Pesce, Vice President of Channel, EMEA, Darktrace.  “Darktrace’s Self-Learning AI Engine, combined with Integrity360’s deep cybersecurity expertise and support services can provide vital, proactive, defense to customers no matter how complex their environment.  We look forward to extending our partnership.”

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.
