Cyber threats aren’t just more frequent, they’re more sophisticated, faster-moving, and increasingly difficult for traditional tools to stop. That’s why businesses need more than just firewalls and antivirus software. They need visibility, intelligence, and real-time defence.

Arc’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provides 24/7 monitoring, rapid threat detection, and expert-led response. We combine leading threat detection technology with human analysis to spot and stop malicious activity before it causes damage.

MDR works best when integrated with a broader cybersecurity approach. At Arc, we help you build a layered defence that includes:

Endpoint Security for device protection

Email Security to stop phishing and malware

Penetration Software Testing to identify system vulnerabilities

User Awareness Training & Policy Development

Our goal is to deliver protection, visibility, and control without overcomplicating your day-to-day operations.

What Is Managed Detection and Response?

MDR is a fully managed cybersecurity service that continuously monitors your IT environment, detects suspicious behaviour, and responds to confirmed threats. It goes beyond passive monitoring, offering active investigation and response from a team of specialists.

Our MDR offering includes:

  • 24/7 threat monitoring and alerting

  • Behavioural analytics to detect stealthy attacks

  • Rapid incident triage and escalation

  • Root cause analysis and remediation support

  • Full integration with existing security tools

It’s ideal for organisations that need round-the-clock protection but don’t have the in-house resources to build and run a full Security Operations Centre (SOC).

 

Key benefits

  • Rapid Threat Detection

    Spot and contain attacks before they spread across the network. 
  • 24/7 Security Coverage

    Cyber threats don’t work 9–5. Neither do we. Our UK-based team monitors your systems at all times. 
  • Expert Response

    Our analysts don’t just flag alerts, they investigate and provide clear, actionable guidance. 
  • Reduced Dwell Time

    The faster an attacker is identified, the less damage they can do. MDR drastically shortens the response window. 
  • Stronger Compliance and Audit Readiness

    Supports your efforts to meet GDPR, Cyber Essentials, and other regulatory requirements.
