MDR / SOC — 24×7 detection and response, validated against real attack paths

24×7 detection, response and SOC operations augmented with continuous attack-path validation that closes the loop between offensive evidence and detection engineering.

The problem

Where teams get stuck

Most MDR services watch alerts. Few can tell you whether the chains an attacker would actually run today are even visible to their detection stack — or whether yesterday’s detections still fire after a control change.

The KeenSafe approach

How we engage

KeenSafe runs the SOC and continuously validates the detection logic that powers it. Every attack path the platform finds is replayed against the SOC stack; gaps are converted into detection-engineering tickets with measurable SLAs.

Methodology

Four-step engagement model

Same rigour every engagement, calibrated to your environment, threat model and regulatory exposure.

STEP 01

Onboarding & telemetry mapping

Identity, endpoint, cloud, network and SaaS sources mapped to ATT&CK coverage targets.

STEP 02

24×7 monitoring & response

L1/L2/L3 analyst rotation, threat hunting, incident triage and containment SLAs.

STEP 03

Continuous detection validation

Platform-replayed attack paths verify which TTPs are actually detected, today.

STEP 04

Detection-engineering uplift

Gaps become tickets with example queries, acceptance criteria, and retest scheduling.

What you get

Deliverables

Every engagement ships these outputs — reproducible, evidence-backed and ready for executives, engineers and auditors.

24×7 SOC operations

Tier-1/2/3 analyst rotation, named SLAs for triage, containment and escalation.

Attack-path replay coverage

Every platform-found chain replayed against your detection stack, continuously.

Detection coverage matrix

Per-TTP, per-source view of detected / alerted / missed.

Executive incident narrative

Board-grade reporting tying incidents and near-misses back to business impact.

Scope of engagement

What this engagement covers

Concrete coverage. Clear boundaries. Optional add-on tracks where customers want to extend.

Included
  • 24×7 monitoring across endpoint, identity, cloud, network, SaaS
  • Tier-1 triage SLA: critical < 5 min, high < 15 min, medium < 1h
  • Tier-2 investigation + threat hunting (hypothesis-driven)
  • Tier-3 advanced threat hunting + detection engineering
  • Continuous attack-path replay against your detection stack (KeenSafe-validated chains)
  • Detection-engineering uplift: gaps converted to deployed rules
  • Monthly executive narrative + quarterly board-ready report
  • Named technical account manager + monthly business review
Optional add-ons
  • Active response (we contain, not just advise) — separate retainer
  • Forensic acquisition + IR escalation (covered by IR retainer)
  • Cleared-personnel SOC pod (defence / government)
  • Sector-specific detection content (financial / healthcare / energy)
  • Co-managed mode: your team + our team on one console
Out of scope
  • SIEM platform replacement (we run on top of yours)
  • Long-term forensic investigation post-incident (covered by IR)
  • GRC reporting (covered by Compliance Readiness)

Common questions

Frequently asked

Do you replace my SIEM/XDR?
No — we run on top of your stack (Splunk, Sentinel, Elastic, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, etc.) and add detection validation, threat hunting and 24×7 analyst coverage.
How fast is response?
Triage SLA from minutes to single-digit minutes for critical, depending on tier. Containment SLA depends on the response model contracted (advise vs. act).
How is this different from "MDR"?
Standard MDR watches alerts. KeenSafe MDR replays validated attack paths against your detection stack continuously — so missing detections become tickets with proof, not opinions.
