Our take
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
- Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response
Best for: Small and mid-sized teams with no security staff
Arctic Wolf earns its place because the same provider also runs incident response, managed risk and awareness training, so a company with no security staff can cover several gaps with one contract. Ask which containment actions the analysts can take without your approval, because that is where MDR services differ most.
