Why Huntress? Cybersecurity That Actually Has Your Back
Why Huntress? Cybersecurity That Actually Has Your Back
Huntress is the managed security platform built to protect your business from cyberattacks without burying your team in notifications.
We combine purpose-built technology with a 24/7 AI-centric Security Operations Center (SOC) to spot and remediate threats.
One platform. Full coverage.
Managed EDR doesn't just watch your endpoints—it’s a complete solution. From the second a threat appears until it’s eliminated, we handle everything. You get 24/7 continuous protection, detection, and response that disrupts and remediates threats.
Backed by human SOC analysts who isolate attacks and take remediation steps to give round-the-clock endpoint detection and response across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Finds and stops identity-based threats in Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace—because identity is the new endpoint, and attackers know it. Huntress Managed ITDR is designed to detect, respond to, and resolve critical identity-based threats like account takeovers, business email compromise, unauthorized logins, and more.
Supports compliance and delivers threat insights that make a real difference in your security posture by collecting and correlating logs with Smart Filtering.
Improves SAT for your team through engaging, expert-backed, personalized training content built on real-world threat intelligence and created by Emmy® Award-winning animators to reduce human risk and build a strong security culture.
Locks down your Microsoft 365 security settings by continuously finding and closing misconfigurations, risky access, and policy drift so those attack paths stay closed.
Reduces user device risks by hardening endpoints to defend against attacks like ransomware and infostealers, and prevent breaches.
Huntress vs. competitors: How we stack up
Enterprise platforms can be too complex, and single-feature tools leave you stitching solutions together. Huntress gives you complete security without the bloat:

Huntress & Microsoft: Why we're better together
Get stronger security for the setup you already own.
Microsoft provides powerful built-in security, but keeping up with the risky app permissions, bad settings, and constant attacks is exhausting.
Huntress takes that work off your plate. Our 24/7 SOC continuously monitors and corrects drift in your Microsoft Entra ID baselines and stops threat actors in real time.
You get complete identity resilience without burning out your team.

“The team at Huntress allowed us to deliver more value to our clients.”
— Kent Goodrow, CISO at Systems Engineering
“[Huntress] was amazing because it really started uncovering a lot of the issues and a lot of the attacks that we were starting to see. It was a huge game changer.”
— Joe Seiler, Director of Security and Shared Services at 415 Group
Village Bakery needed round-the-clock protection without a multi-week rollout. Huntress deployed Managed EDR and Managed ITDR in under two days, providing a 24/7 SOC that was ready to hit the ground running.
The team at Your IT Guys was overwhelmed with false positives from scattered tools while client phishing attacks climbed. They deployed Huntress Managed EDR, Managed SIEM, Managed SAT, and Managed ISPM in 20 minutes per site for strong protection without a wave of false positives.
The 415 Group needed a security solution that wouldn’t miss active threats or take up to an hour to spot token theft. They standardized Huntress Managed EDR and ITDR across all client environments, reducing their threat response and remediation times to mere seconds.
Iron Dome ran the numbers and realized that providing 24/7 SOC staffing in-house to tackle rising supply chain risks would mean hiring five to 10 more engineers. They adopted the Huntress Managed Platform suite instead to gain round-the-clock protection for one predictable price.
