Why Choose Akita’s Managed MDR Services?
How Our MDR Services Work
Threat Investigation & Communication
All potential security threats are continuously monitored and initially classified as Escalations. These represent suspicious or unusual activity that requires further analysis.
Each escalation is investigated and monitored until it is either:
• Confirmed as a security Incident, or
• Determined to be non-malicious activity.
During the investigation process, we may contact you to request clarification or approval before resolving or confirming an incident.
Containment
Each identified risk is classified as either an Incident or an Escalation.
An incident represents confirmed malicious activity. Escalations are suspicious behaviour that requires further investigation and is not yet fully confirmed as malicious.
Containment is applied to confirmed and known incident types without requiring prior customer approval. Where activity aligns with known false-positive indicators, investigation and validation will be completed before any containment actions are taken.
Remediation
Following containment, a structured remediation process is applied based on the nature and severity of the incident.
• Removal of all identified malicious files, processes, services, and persistence mechanisms.
• Verification that the threat has been fully eradicated from affected systems.
• Restoration of normal system and network access where appropriate.
We then work with your organisation to implement security improvements and provide guidance on preventative controls, configuration changes, and user awareness where required.
Incident Reporting & Documentation
Following remediation and validation, a formal incident report is produced to provide full transparency, accountability, and assurance.
The report documents the incident lifecycle, actions taken, and recommendations for future prevention.
Why Do Organisations Need An MDR Service?
Modern businesses operate in an increasingly complex cyber landscape. Threats are becoming more sophisticated, and traditional security measures are no longer enough to keep attackers out.
A Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service provides proactive, expert-driven protection to detect, respond to, and mitigate cyber threats before they cause damage.
Here’s why MDR is essential for today’s organisations:
- Cyber attacks are more frequent & advanced – AI-driven threats, phishing, and zero-day exploits bypass traditional security.
- Traditional security isn’t enough – Firewalls & antivirus react to threats; MDR prevents them.
- Data breaches are costly – Avoid financial losses, downtime, reputational damage, and legal penalties.
- Rapid response minimises damage – MDR provides 24/7 monitoring to detect, contain, and mitigate attacks in real time.
- Ensures compliance – Supports GDPR, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus and industry regulations.
