How Our MDR Service for BalckBerry CylancePROTECT Works

Critical Start MDR adapts to your environment to deliver the full power of BlackBerry CylancePROTECT.

Our bi-directional integration ingests every endpoint alert from BlackBerry CylancePROTECT into the Cyber Operations Risk & Response™ platform, where they’re compared against known good behaviors in the Trusted Behavior Registry® (TBR) and playbooks auto-resolve known good alerts at scale. Alerts not matching the TBR are escalated to our SOC analysts for further enrichment and investigation. Best of all, we can take response actions on your behalf and we will work with you until remediation is complete.
