Vertek —
US-Based MSSP for ransomMDR, MXDR & SIEM

Vertek is a US-based managed security services provider (MSSP) specializing in SOC, SIEM, SOAR, MDR and XDR — delivering ransomMDR (anti-ransomware MDR), cyber360 MXDR (managed extended detection and response over Microsoft Defender), advanced SIEM services, a Microsoft Exposure Assessment and security professional services and consulting — fitting operating models whose security posture cannot rely on EPP/EDR alone against modern ransomware and data-exfiltration tradecraft, and whose detection-and-response posture demands a 24x7 US-based SOC rather than business-hours alert triage.

ransomMDR is built specifically for the ransomware kill chain — combining the Halcyon anti-ransomware platform (pre-execution AI, exploitation traps, behavioral detection, key-material capture and keyless recovery) with D3 Security Smart SOAR, threat and fraud intelligence and Vertek's 24x7 SOC for alarm enrichment, triage and incident response — fitting operating models whose threat posture has moved beyond run-of-the-mill malware, and whose recovery posture cannot accept the multi-week downtime and seven-figure remediation cost typical of a successful ransomware event.

cyber360 MXDR turns existing Microsoft Defender XDR licensing (Defender for Identity, Endpoint, Office 365 and Cloud Apps) into a fully managed 24x7 detection-and-response platform — layered with Halcyon ransomware protection and Vertek's US-based SOC for alarm enrichment, triage, isolate-user/isolate-device response and forensics reporting — fitting operating models whose Microsoft 365 footprint already carries E3/E5 security entitlements that are licensed but not operationalized, and whose security posture cannot rely on in-house staff to monitor and respond around the clock.

Vertek delivers managed SIEM on LevelBlue (master MSSP relationship) and on Microsoft Sentinel (Microsoft indirect CSP) — covering SIEM engineering, threat intelligence, artifact enrichment, alarm analysis, SOAR-driven response and monthly readouts — fitting operating models whose security stack has crossed three or four key products, and whose compliance or business posture demands log aggregation, cross-correlation and rapid response across the full estate rather than per-product alert silos.

The Microsoft Exposure Assessment is a 30-minute Vertek-led review that compares a Microsoft 365 tenant's actual security configuration to Vertek's recommended baseline across identity and access management, conditional access, Intune compliance, endpoint protection and messaging security — producing a scored snapshot, gap analysis and roadmap — fitting operating models whose Microsoft licensing already includes security features that are paid for but not enabled or not configured to current best practice.
