    Pros
    Mandiant
    • Excellent across all major tenant of incident response (detection, containment, eradication, etc.)
    • Has a strong backend support system to perform advanced incident response activities (reverse malware engineering, etc.)
    • Very scalable - no matter how small or large the incident, Managed Defense can tackle it, or escalate to Mandiant IR if the incident is complex and/or large enough.

    Cons
    Mandiant
    • Due to split from FireEye Mandiant no longer can provide its own End Point Protection as part of MDR for customers that want to transition after incident is complete .
    • Single remediation response with no-ongoing monitoring

    We are a quiet shop with few incidents, however, MD's response to questions and access to our assigned MD consultant is excellent.
