SilverSky is positioned for mid-market and enterprise organizations whose security operating model needs 24x7 Managed Detection and Response delivered with measurable, machine-driven analytic depth. Lightning MDR combines 250+ ML and AI-based behavioral-analytic detections with a human SOC team — delivering 96% automated case creation, 97% alert reduction versus best-in-class SIEM-plus-automation, and 95% reduction in false-positive time. Unified detection across MDR, MNDR (Fortinet), MEDR (SentinelOne), and Incident Response under one operator. Fibi sources and negotiates SilverSky on your behalf, at no cost to your business.
Portfolio
A unified MDR, network-detection, endpoint-detection, and incident-response platform with 250+ ML and AI behavioral-analytic detections — paired with vCISO, vulnerability management, penetration testing, and KnowBe4 security training under one operator.
SilverSky's flagship 24x7x365 Managed Detection and Response service — built on a multi-tenant Next-Generation SIEM running 250+ ML and AI-based behavioral-analytic detections. The platform delivers 96% automated case creation, 97% alert reduction versus best-in-class SIEM-plus-automation, and 95% reduction in time spent on false positives.
The Lightning Next-Gen SIEM is the platform underneath the MDR service — combining log management with advanced ML and AI-based analytics that automate detection, then route high-confidence cases to the SOC. Built and tuned by SilverSky in-house rather than licensed from third parties, which is the structural reason the platform delivers higher automation and lower false-positive rates.
Managed Network Detection and Response operating through Fortinet Next-Generation Firewall telemetry — extending the MDR detection layer to network traffic patterns, lateral-movement indicators, and command-and-control signals. Feeds back into the Lightning platform so SilverSky operates a unified detection layer rather than running network detection as a separate managed service.
Managed Endpoint Detection and Response on SentinelOne with 24x7 monitoring and analyst-led response — feeding into the same Lightning platform as MDR and MNDR. The integration is the difference between an MDR provider and an MSSP that sells endpoint and network monitoring as separate SKUs without unified detection.
Compromise-response practice for forensic investigation, containment, eradication, and recovery — paired with MDR (so the SOC and IR practice work the same incident continuously rather than handing off to a third-party DFIR vendor) or on emergency basis for non-customer organizations facing an active breach. The retainer model fits buyers whose risk profile or compliance requirements demand a documented IR partner before the breach happens.
Virtual CISO services delivered as project-outcome, hourly, or structured-framework engagements — appropriate for organizations needing executive-level security leadership without standing up a full-time CISO role. Paired with the rest of the SilverSky portfolio so the vCISO engagement sits inside the operator's broader security-program context.
SilverSky Insight Vulnerability Management runs continuous or monthly next-generation vulnerability scanning, paired with Penetration Testing engagements covering internal, external, web app, and phishing scenarios. Technical Gap Reviews provide professional review of deployed security technology against best-practice configuration.
Managed Security Training and Awareness through KnowBe4 — covering the human-layer gap that ranks among the top breach vectors. The proactive practice wraps around the reactive MDR posture so program-level security maturity moves forward continuously rather than living in the SOC alone.
Ideal For
Banks, credit unions, asset managers, and fintechs whose compliance frameworks demand 24x7 detection, documented IR, and analytics-depth that exceeds what an in-house team can investigate.
Hospitals and health systems whose HIPAA posture and breach-response obligations require continuous detection and a documented IR partner before the breach happens.
Law firms, accounting firms, and consulting practices whose client-data confidentiality requirements drive 24x7 detection, IR retainers, and vCISO engagement.
Mid-market enterprises whose false-positive volumes from a typical SIEM exceed in-house investigation capacity — Lightning's 97% alert reduction is the structural reason to consolidate under one operator.
Why SilverSky
Structural advantages that justify SilverSky as a single MDR + MNDR + MEDR + IR + vCISO operator rather than a portfolio of single-signal vendors.
Built and tuned by SilverSky rather than licensed from third parties — the structural reason the Lightning platform delivers 96% automated case creation, 97% alert reduction versus best-in-class SIEM-plus-automation, and 95% reduction in time spent on false positives.
Lightning ingests endpoint (SentinelOne MEDR), network (Fortinet MNDR), and log telemetry into one platform — the difference between an MDR provider and an MSSP that sells endpoint and network monitoring as separate SKUs without unified detection.
Incident Response is delivered by SilverSky's own DFIR practice — meaning when the worst case happens, the SOC that detected the incident and the IR team that contains it are the same operator on the same platform, rather than a third-party DFIR handoff during the worst week of the year.
vCISO, Penetration Testing, Vulnerability Management, Technical Gap Reviews, and KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training wrap around the reactive MDR posture — program-level security maturity moves forward continuously rather than living only in the SOC.
