Mandiant has announced new cybersecurity services to support Microsoft technologies

The new services bring together Mandiant’s expertise and intelligence with Microsoft security products to provide customers with unprecedented security capabilities.

Kevin Mandia, CEO at FireEye, said, “Every day on the frontlines we see our adversaries growing more advanced and accelerating the pace of attacks. By coming together with Microsoft, we will help customers fundamentally improve their security programme with insights from Mandiant experts who are experienced in defending against the most sophisticated adversaries in the world.”

Mandiant will initially focus on delivering joint incident response commitments across Microsoft and third-party technology. Later in the year, Mandiant Managed Defense will introduce support for Microsoft 365 Defender, providing its customers with managed detection and response services.

Ann Johnson, chief vice-president security, compliance, and identity business development, Microsoft, commented, “Combining Microsoft security technology with Mandiant intelligence and expertise helps give our customers an increased ability to prevent, detect and respond to the ever-evolving and complex threat landscape.”

In the coming quarters, Mandiant Managed Defense will include support for additional Microsoft Security solutions to ensure comprehensive customer protection.

Mandiant Solutions, a part of FireEye, brings together the world’s leading threat intelligence and frontline expertise with continuous security validation to arm organisations with the tools needed to increase security effectiveness and reduce organisational risk.
