    The rise of cloud computing, IoT devices, and IT-OT convergence has significantly expanded the attack surface, making enterprises more vulnerable to advanced cyber threats. Organizations struggle with managing complex security environments, bridging talent shortages, and balancing budget constraints while ensuring robust cybersecurity. As a result, they increasingly turn to Managed Detection and Response (MDR) providers for real-time threat visibility, automated incident containment, and seamless security integration. Providers are addressing these challenges by integrating cutting-edge innovations such as generative AI-driven threat detection, incident response, and threat investigation, Security Operations Center (SOC)-as-a-service for scalable cloud-based operations, and XDR capabilities for holistic telemetry coverage. The growing convergence of IT and OT security has also fuelled the demand for unified SOCs capable of managing diverse digital ecosystems. This compendium provides detailed and fact-based snapshots of 29 global MDR providers featured on the Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Services – Provider Compendium 2025. Each profile offers a comprehensive picture of the provider’s operations, delivery presence, solutions, investments, and market success.

    In this report, we assess SentinelOne’s evolving cybersecurity portfolio, emphasizing the strategic innovations showcased at the RSA Conference (RSAC) 2025. SentinelOne introduced Purple AI Athena, an agentic AI that autonomously triages, investigates, and remediates security incidents. It also enhanced Singularity Hyperautomation, a no‑code workflow engine that converts analyst actions into reusable playbooks and integrates with third‑party Security Information and Event Management  (SIEMs) and data lakes for a unified security‑operations view. These enhancements aim to tackle persistent Security Operations Center (SOC) challenges by filtering alert noise, expediting investigations, and orchestrating cross‑tool responses at machine speed. SentinelOne also strengthened its multi‑cloud workload‑protection capabilities and highlighted interoperability across containerized and serverless environments. However, the expanded automation features may overlap with established Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) platforms, and large enterprises will scrutinize Purple AI’s explainability and guardrails before adopting autonomous response at scale. SentinelOne’s future roadmaps must clarify integration depth with legacy security stacks and outline a robust AI governance framework.

    Gen AI is transforming how SOCs detect, respond to, and manage cyber threats. It enables automating repetitive tasks such as log analysis, alert triage, and incident investigation – freeing analysts to focus on strategic threat hunting and decision-making. Integrated effectively, gen AI enhances operational efficiency, reduces mean time to respond, and supports real-time risk profiling. This Viewpoint explores how gen AI fits across SOC architecture layers – from data collection and processing to analytics and incident response. It highlights real-world use cases, including AI-generated threat summaries, vulnerability detection through SAST/SCA automation, and intelligent response orchestration. Gen AI is also essential in workforce development, helping junior analysts upskill through guided workflows and natural language-based interfaces. While the benefits are compelling, organizations must navigate risks such as rising implementation costs, expanded attack surfaces, governance complexities, and the potential erosion of analyst skill development. Planning, budgeting, and responsibly integrating gen AI are key to realizing its full value. A structured SMART-G framework defined in this Viewpoint can guide enterprises through strategic alignment, infrastructure readiness, model optimization, workforce training, and governance. The result is a future-ready SOC – resilient, scalable, and built for a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
