What we do
(it’s more than what’s in the SLA)
The combination of the Expel Workbench™ and Expel analysts monitoring your environment 24x7 provide transparent managed security that finds attackers and gives you the answers you need to kick them out and keep them out.
Monitor 24x7
Our analysts monitor your environment and identify threats
Investigate and respond
We find out exactly what happened and tell you what to do about it
Hunt for threats
We proactively hunt for malicious activity in your environment
Help you improve
We tell you how to address the root cause of recurring incidents
What you get
(hint: it’s not alerts)
Want to spend less time operating products and massaging alerts?
Expel tells you what you need to know and what you should care about.
Focus on what matters
We use your products to detect threats, filter out false positives and quickly engage you on the threats you need to care about.
Get specific actions for each incident
When we confirm an incident, we recommend specific actions to resolve each issue. And we write them in plain English so anyone can understand.
Improve your resilience
You get recommendations, based on your environment and past trends, so you can fix the root cause
of recurring events or even prevent them from happening in the first place.
Track your improvement
Are you getting better? Measure how we’re doing, see how much better you’re getting and in what ways.
Transparent managed security
Transparency means you see exactly what our analysts see. It also means there’s never any doubt about what we’re doing on your behalf. It’s a pretty radical idea. But we couldn’t imagine running the service any other way.
- See exactly what our analysts are doing
- Draw a straight line from the money you spend to the value you get
