Athena MDR
Continuous monitoring, investigation, and response for teams that cannot watch every minute themselves
Athena MDR extends security coverage beyond business hours and beyond what a lean internal team can realistically sustain alone. Powered by Athena’s virtual SOC model, it combines continuous monitoring, analyst investigation, threat hunting, and coordinated response workflows so organizations can move faster from signal to action when threats emerge.
Detection and response coverage
- Continuous threat monitoring
- Advanced behavioral detection
- Network intrusion detection support powered by Athena NIDS and Suricata-based visibility
- Endpoint detection and response support powered by Athena Core and Wazuh-based telemetry
- Threat hunting
- Incident investigation and forensics
- Alert validation and escalation
- Coordinated containment and remediation
- Root cause analysis
- Post-incident reporting
Response integration
- Endpoint isolation
- Automated rule deployment
- AWS WAF and firewall enforcement support
- Security group reconfiguration
- Integrated network response coordination
How the engagement works
- Onboard telemetry, priorities, escalation paths, and operating assumptions
- Continuously monitor and triage detections using endpoint, network, cloud, and contextual data
- Investigate validated alerts, correlate activity, and escalate or coordinate containment when response is required
- Review incidents, tune detections, and improve response playbooks over time so the service compounds in value
What clients receive
- 24/7 monitoring and analyst-driven investigation through a virtual SOC operating model
- Validated alerts with clearer context and escalation quality
- Threat hunting and cross-domain investigation support
- Coordinated containment and remediation guidance across hosts, network controls, and cloud environments
- Post-incident reporting and feedback loops that improve future response readiness
Common use cases
- Organizations that need full SOC outsourcing or meaningful after-hours coverage
- Security teams facing alert fatigue and inconsistent escalation quality
- Hybrid cloud environments where endpoint, network, and cloud signals must be correlated quickly
- Companies that want stronger ransomware, intrusion, and lateral-movement response readiness
How Athena MDR fits the platform
Athena MDR sits on top of the telemetry and controls provided by the broader Athena platform. Athena Core and Athena NIDS provide the raw signal, Pallas helps explain and summarize what is happening, and Athena XDR+ can support coordinated multi-layer response actions when high-confidence detections require action.
Extend your team with continuous detection and response coverage
Athena MDR helps organizations reduce alert fatigue, improve investigation quality, and respond with more speed and coordination when real threats appear.
