Huntress Resource Center

As the cybersecurity industry enters another year full of acronyms, jargon and alphabet soup, we’re pulling the curtain back on one of the tech categories that matters most right now—EDR.

There’s no denying the need to defend your devices from today’s bad actors. But what exactly is endpoint detection and response, and what role does it play in your security practice?

Join members of the Huntress team for a discussion about EDR. Attendees can expect some helpful insights and actionable recommendations around the following:

• Defining core EDR capabilities and where they fit into your cyberstack
• Understanding the differences between managed and unmanaged EDR offerings
• A (brief) look at Huntress Managed EDR and how we help businesses strengthen their defenses

There’s an overwhelming number of strategies available to grow your business. Testing different strategies can be exhausting and often futile. What if you could “hack” the system and identify proven strategies to level up your IT provider business?

The IT provider industry is highly collaborative in sharing best practices to increase knowledge and grow your business with online and in-person communities.

Join us for an interactive, on-demand webinar featuring a panel of three MSP executives who will share how they have leveraged various communities to grow their businesses. You’ll learn to identify the proper channels and connect with other industry professionals.

Cloud 9 Computing, Universal Data, and Stronghold Data will give you an inside look at how they approach and engage with the following communities:  

• Virtual communities
• Local communities
• Events and conferences
• Peer groups

Hackers are constantly evolving. We’ve seen this firsthand in Australia and New Zealand with a number of high profile breaches in recent months.

But not to fear, Huntress’ Threat Hunters and account team is officially in ANZ. Come join us to learn how we’re teaming up with MSPs in the region and making the hackers fight for every inch!

The Huntress team will be discussing:

• Where we came from: We’re still the Huntress you love, now with boots on the ground, a managed security platform and a team of 24/7 Threat Hunters backing our EDR solution.

• What we’re up to now: How Huntress’ Managed EDR and Security Awareness Training solutions are key weapons in your fight against hackers; and

• Where we’re going: What is Huntress’ product roadmap? How will we continue to evolve the hunt for partners in the region? Learn what we’re building now and our vision for the future.

Picking the right EDR solution just got easier.

In order to combat today’s threats, businesses need endpoint detection and response (EDR). But how do you pick the best solution for your business?

Don’t worry—we got you. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to find the right EDR solution for your business.

Download our guide to learn:

• How to properly evaluate your EDR needs
• What capabilities to consider (and avoid) when searching for your ideal solution
• The differences between managed and unmanaged EDR offerings

What would you do if you had a security incident that could ruin your client relationships and your business? It’s a nightmare scenario - and it’s one that a New York-based MSP faced a year ago.

Progressive Computing was one of the victims of the attack on the Kaseya VSA RMM tool on July 2, 2021. Hackers installed ransomware across their entire client base, simultaneously affecting 2,500 endpoints across 80 clients with 200 physical sites in four different time zones.

Watch our webinar to hear from the team at Progressive Computing as they share their story of the last 12 months. It’s not just a story of the technical side of recovery and restoring their systems, it’s also one of fighting through a mass-scale attack and coming out the other side scarred, but wiser and stronger.

Although antivirus tools are nothing new, they may be more essential than ever when it comes to thwarting attacks aimed at SMBs. Leveraging an AV with a managed component gives an extra layer of protection against ever-evolving attacks.

It’s been six months since we launched our Managed Antivirus service in general availability - and what a ride it’s been. Today, tens of thousands of endpoints are now protected by the top-rated Microsoft Defender and the watchful eyes of the Huntress global ThreatOps team.

Watch Kyle Hanslovan and other members of the Huntress team dive into the story of Huntress Managed Antivirus, exploring the types of threats we’ve seen in the wild, the shenanigans that have been thwarted and how IT teams are seeing more value from their Huntress investment by deploying Managed Antivirus.

We’ll cover real-world examples of how Huntress partners have made the switch to Microsoft Defender. Plus, get a sneak peek of what’s next for the platform from Huntress product owners.

Let’s address the elephant in the room: No business is 100% protected against cyberattacks. Instead of waiting around to become the next victim, modern businesses are adding managed detection and response (MDR) capabilities to stay one step ahead of today’s determined cybercriminals. 

MDR is a combination of technology and human expertise that tightly focuses on detecting, analyzing, and responding to the threats that have snuck past preventive tools.

• How managed detection and response works
• Where MDR fits into your overall security strategy
• What capabilities to look for in MDR or managed services

You know who really knows their way around cybersecurity? Threat actors.

To stand a chance against them, we as defenders have to expand our security stacks to include tools that go past prevention—because it’s important to be able to seek out threat actors who sneak in and quietly lurk in your environment.

And that’s where Huntress shines.

Watch a product demo to see the power of managed detection and response backed by human threat hunters. We’ll show you how Huntress can help you defend against threats with Managed Antivirus, as well as how our 24/7 human SOC team responds once an active threat is detected.

Specifically, we’ll cover these main features of The Huntress Managed Security Platform:

• Persistent Foothold detection
• Ransomware Canaries
• External Recon
• Partner Enablement
• Managed Antivirus
• 24/7 Global SOC coverage
• Host Isolation

Most organizations have spent the past year scrambling to virtualize their events and expand their webinar calendar - and attackers have taken notice. Huntress has discovered zero-day vulnerabilities in multiple virtual event platforms used in the MSP and Fortune 500 communities.

‍

Microsoft detected multiple zero-day exploits being used to plunder on-premise versions of Microsoft Exchange Server in what they claim are “limited and targeted attacks.” But from our research, the spread is much larger.The Huntress team has checked over 2,000 Exchange servers and found ~400 vulnerable. The scary thing is that the majority of these endpoints have antivirus or EDR solutions installed—meaning the exploits slipped past most preventive security products.
