SonicSentry MXDR — 24/7 Managed Extended Detection and Response
Cyber threats operate around the clock. SonicSentry MXDR puts the power of a 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) behind your security toolset, delivering managed extended detection and response across endpoints, cloud environments, and network perimeter devices.
The SonicSentry SOC — staffed by expert threat hunters — monitors security alerts continuously, correlates data across the entire attack surface, and responds to active threats with an average response time of just four minutes. For MSPs managing multiple customers, SonicSentry eliminates alert fatigue, closes coverage gaps, and provides the proactive threat hunting needed to stay ahead of adversaries — without requiring long-term contracts or minimum commitments.
Key capabilities:
- 24/7 SOC monitoring and active threat mitigation
- Cross-surface correlation across endpoint, cloud, and network telemetry
- Proactive threat hunting by certified security experts
- White-glove onboarding with no minimums and monthly billing
- Up to $1M cyber warranty when combined with qualifying SonicWall products
Network Security Manager (NSM)
Network Security Manager — Centralized Firewall Visibility and Risk Reduction
Effective cyber risk management requires deep, actionable insight into your firewall estate. SonicWall Network Security Manager (NSM) is a centralized security management platform that transforms network data into decisive action, helping teams surface hidden risks, detect misconfigurations, and simplify compliance across distributed environments.
NSM delivers real-time and historical visibility across all managed firewalls, automates credential auditing and password remediation, and generates security assessment reports that translate technical findings into clear risk posture metrics. Available as a cloud SaaS platform or an on-premises deployment, NSM supports governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) workflows at scale.
Key capabilities:
- Centralized firewall management with multi-tenant hierarchy for MSPs
- Real-time threat detection, misconfiguration identification, and automated remediation
- Advanced analytics and security assessment reporting for compliance alignment (PCI, HIPAA, SOX, GDPR)
- Zero-touch deployment and intuitive policy management workflows
- Encrypted configuration backups and automated TOTP credential protection
SonicSentry MDR for Cloud
SonicSentry MDR for Cloud — Managed Cloud and Email Security Across Your SaaS Environment
Modern businesses operate in the cloud — and so do today's most sophisticated attackers. With 83% of SOC-handled alerts tied to cloud apps and compromised credentials, cloud-focused protection is an essential layer of any cyber risk management strategy. SonicSentry MDR for Cloud addresses this as a combination of two solutions that work together: Cloud Email Security and Cloud Threat Analytics.
Cloud Email Security uses AI and machine learning to analyze every inbound email against more than 300 phishing indicators — detecting user and brand impersonation, spoofed senders, and business email compromise (BEC) before messages ever reach users' inboxes. This offering can operate as a standalone automated protection layer; SOC monitoring can be added as an option.
Cloud Threat Analytics adds the human layer to cloud SaaS apps: a 24/7 expert SOC that monitors anomalous logins, unauthorized admin role changes, multi-factor authentication modifications, and account takeover activity across business-critical SaaS applications — including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Slack, and Dropbox. When a threat is detected, the SOC responds immediately to contain and remediate compromised accounts.
Together, these two offerings form SonicSentry MDR for Cloud — providing automated email-level defense paired with around-the-clock human-led SaaS monitoring, with an average SOC response time of four minutes.
Key capabilities:
- - AI-driven email phishing detection across 300+ indicators, including impersonation and spoofed senders (Cloud Email Security — standalone, no SOC required)
- - 24/7 expert SOC monitoring for anomalous logins, MFA changes, and account takeover across SaaS apps (Cloud Threat Analytics)
- - Business email compromise (BEC) prevention before messages reach users
- - Coverage for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Slack, Dropbox, and more
- - No contracts, no minimums — flexible monthly billing
Reports
Security Compliance Reporting and Network Risk Visibility
Demonstrating security efficacy is as critical as achieving it. SonicWall delivers more than 140 pre-defined reports that track and measure network performance, threat activity, and security operations outcomes — giving teams the auditable data needed to quantify cyber risk posture over time. Custom reports can be built from any combination of security data, enabling compliance alignment with regulatory frameworks including PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOX, and GDPR. Whether supporting internal governance reviews or external audits, SonicWall reporting turns security data into a clear, defensible record of control effectiveness.
