Tools We Use

We engineer the tools you already pay for.

We don't have a platform to upsell. We operate the vendors below — across SIEM, EDR/XDR, cloud security, network, and identity — to make the tools you've already invested in actually do their job. If your tool isn't listed, ask: we work with most of them.

SIEM

SIEM & log analytics

The platforms we operate as managed-SIEM engagements.

Splunk

SIEM / observability

Splunk Enterprise Security and the SOAR module power some of our largest managed-SIEM deployments. We engineer ingestion, write detections, tune correlation, and operate the platform 24/7.

Our take

Right answer when you already pay for it and want detection engineering that ages well.

Microsoft Sentinel

SIEM / cloud-native

Azure-native SIEM with deep M365 / Entra ID integration. Strong choice for orgs already standardized on Microsoft.

Our take

Best total-cost-of-ownership when your stack is mostly Microsoft and you want to consolidate.

EDR / XDR

Endpoint & extended detection

Where attackers land, and where most incidents are detected and contained.

CrowdStrike Falcon

EDR / XDR

Endpoint, identity, and cloud telemetry on a single platform. We operate Falcon as part of our MDR — from initial deployment through tuned detection-as-code.

Our take

Our default EDR recommendation. Fast, well-staffed vendor, strong threat intel.

SentinelOne

EDR / XDR

Autonomous endpoint protection with strong rollback and forensics features. Common in mid-market deployments.

Our take

Comparable to CrowdStrike at a different price point. Solid for cost-sensitive deployments.

Microsoft Defender

EDR / XDR

Native Microsoft endpoint and identity protection. Often the right answer for E5 customers — value is already paid for.

Our take

Underrated when you already have E5 licenses. We help orgs operationalize it correctly.

Cloud

Cloud security posture

Where modern environments live — and where misconfiguration costs the most.

AWS Security Hub

Cloud security posture

Centralized findings across GuardDuty, Inspector, Config, and Macie. We integrate Security Hub with your SIEM and operationalize the findings.

Our take

Necessary for AWS-heavy orgs. Most value comes from triage and tuning, not the raw feed.

Azure Defender for Cloud

Cloud security posture

CSPM and CWP across Azure subscriptions, with extensions to multi-cloud. We deploy, scope, and tune for actionable signal.

Our take

Required when running production workloads in Azure. Configuration matters more than the license.

Wiz

Cloud security posture

Agentless CNAPP across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes. We help mid-market orgs evaluate and deploy Wiz alongside MDR.

Our take

Excellent for visibility across multi-cloud. Best when the rest of the program can act on findings.

Network

Network & perimeter

Firewalls, SASE, network segmentation — still the spine of most architectures.

Palo Alto Networks

Network security · NGFW · SASE

PAN-OS, Prisma Access, and Cortex XSOAR. We architect, deploy, and operate Palo Alto stacks — including SD-WAN cutovers and SASE migrations.

Our take

Strong NGFW story; Prisma Access is the SASE platform we recommend most often for regulated industries.

Fortinet

Network security · NGFW

FortiGate firewall + FortiAnalyzer / FortiSIEM. Common in mid-market and industrial environments.

Our take

Good economics for mid-market. Configuration discipline is the difference between safe and breached.

Cisco Secure

Network · Identity · Threat

Cisco Duo, Umbrella, Secure Endpoint, and Secure Network. We operate Cisco stacks for clients standardized on the platform.

Our take

Best when you're already deep in Cisco — Duo in particular punches above its weight.

Identity

Identity & access

The blast radius of every modern breach. Where we spend the most time hardening.

Okta

Identity

Workforce and customer identity. We harden Okta tenants, design lifecycle automation, and integrate with privileged access.

Our take

The right answer for most non-Microsoft-first orgs. Post-Lapsus, configuration discipline is non-negotiable.

Microsoft Entra ID

Identity

Identity and access management for Microsoft 365 and beyond. We harden Entra tenants and design conditional access policies that don't break the business.

Our take

Default choice for Microsoft-first orgs. Conditional Access is what makes or breaks the deployment.
