Open Systems, Microsoft Collaborate on New Security Services

  • Written by Edward Gately
  • May 9, 2022
More will be coming from this collaboration between Open Systems and Microsoft.

Open Systems has collaborated with Microsoft to develop Microsoft Security Experts. It’s a new set of managed threat hunting and response security service offerings.

Microsoft Security Experts, an expansion of Microsoft’s existing portfolio, launched Monday.

Open Systems’ Managed Detection and Response Plus (MDR+) platform allows organizations to mitigate both threats and risks. It does so by leveraging the Microsoft security tool stack as a multicloud, multi-device control plane.

Big Opportunities for Open Systems Partners

Alex Berger is Open Systems’ senior director of product marketing.

“Partners will be able to offer customers Open Systems MDR+ as a complement to … Microsoft Security Experts managed extended detection and response (MXDR) service. Using both, … our partners’ customers get the benefits of Microsoft’s standardized threat detection and alert triage augmented with tailored protection and localized response delivered by MDR+.”

In addition, Open Systems can help partners’ customers adopt core Microsoft security technologies required by the Microsoft Security Experts services.

Here’s our most recent list of new products and services that agents, VARs, MSPs and other partners offer.

The combination of Microsoft Security Experts and Open Systems MDR+ is an “extremely compelling” managed security services solution, Berger said. Unlike competitive solutions, it “leaves no stone unturned” thanks to the combination of globalized threat detection and alert triage with localized response.

“To realize these benefits, the Microsoft MXDR service will provide additional signals and data for integration into MDR+, to enable a seamless experience for customers,” he said.

More to Come From Collaboration

Andrew Conway is Microsoft’s vice president of security marketing.

“Open Systems has played an important role in helping shape the direction of Microsoft Security Experts,” he said. “We look forward to helping to protect our mutual customers through integration with Open Systems’ industry-leading security MDR services offering.”

Berger said Open Systems is continuing to co-innovate with Microsoft and both companies will share more details at Inspire, Microsoft’s worldwide partner conference in July.
