Sectra Managed Detection and Response

Sectra Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a managed security service focused on monitoring and protecting industrial and OT environments, including SCADA, Historian, and HMI systems used in critical infrastructure sectors such as energy, industry, and healthcare. Sectra implements and dimensions a monitoring solution based on the customer's needs and threat landscape, handling installation, configuration, and ongoing updates. Network traffic and production systems are monitored around the clock by Sectra's Security Operation Centre (SOC), where analysts with experience in industrial network security identify and analyze both known and new cyber threats. The service is delivered on a subscription basis, giving customers a fixed and predictable annual cost instead of investing in their own monitoring technology, hardware, and specialized staff. In the event of an attack, Sectra can deploy an incident response team to help contain or stop the attack. The offering is positioned as an alternative to organizations building in-house OT monitoring capabilities, which the vendor notes often requires significant technical procurement expertise, specialized recruitment, and ongoing maintenance, and can result in fragmented visibility when different security products do not integrate well with each other.
