A threat detection service finds attacks while they are happening, not weeks later when the damage is done. DegTech monitors your computers, user accounts and network 24/7, investigates suspicious activity and acts to contain it, so a small problem does not become a business-stopping one.
What our threat detection service looks for
- Ransomware and other malware trying to run on your devices
- Unusual activity on user accounts and computers
- Suspicious behaviour on your network
- Devices that are missing protection or have fallen out of date
It is delivered through endpoint detection and response (EDR and MDR) tools, backed by our team, who review alerts and decide what needs action.
How detection and response works
- Monitor: security software on every managed device reports back around the clock.
- Detect: unusual or malicious activity raises an alert.
- Investigate: we work out whether it is a real threat or a false alarm.
- Contain and fix: real threats are isolated and removed, and we tell you what happened.
Why speed matters
Attackers rely on going unnoticed. The longer someone stays inside your systems, the more they can see, copy and lock. Finding a threat early limits the damage, the downtime and the cost of recovery. It also gives you something just as valuable: a clear record of what happened if you ever need to explain it to a client or insurer.
Threat detection works best alongside managed security and reliable backup and disaster recovery, so you can recover even if the worst happens.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between antivirus and a threat detection service?
Antivirus blocks known threats on a single device. A threat detection service watches behaviour across your devices and network, flags threats that antivirus can miss, and has people ready to respond.
What are EDR and MDR?
EDR (endpoint detection and response) is software on each device that records activity and can isolate a device when something looks wrong. MDR (managed detection and response) adds a team who monitor those alerts and respond for you.
Will it slow our computers down?
Modern endpoint security tools are designed to run quietly in the background. If you have older machines, we will talk you through it before anything is installed.
