NetWitness MDR
Platform-native MDR for organizations using or adopting NetWitness Platform XDR. Public materials describe a customized service where analysts connect to a NetWitness XDR environment for threat hunting, incident management, system administration, patching and upgrades. Current public partnership material also describes Lumifi-delivered MDR for NetWitness IT and OT deployments. Pricing, contractual response SLAs, analyst staffing ratios and standard containment authority are not published.
