About DefendEdge
DefendEdge runs its security operations center from Chicago, Illinois, and staffs it entirely with United States citizens and military veterans. Monitoring runs 24 hours a day, every day of the year, across three shifts, so alerts are reviewed by people rather than left to automated tools alone. Services include managed detection and response with human led triage, endpoint detection and response across workstations, servers, and cloud assets, and SIEM log collection and analysis with threat hunting and compliance reporting. DefendEdge supports and monitors next generation firewalls from vendors such as Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, Check Point, and SonicWall. Clients in healthcare, finance, government, and education, including small and medium sized organizations, rely on DefendEdge for steady monitoring, quick escalation, and clear incident handling.
