Detailed Review
Eye Security positions its MDR at the mid-market. The service watches endpoints and servers through EDR technology and reads logs from Microsoft 365 and Google Cloud tenants, with analysts making the calls.
The company groups MDR with a 24/7 SOC, incident response and cyber insurance that follows the same defence model, so a single supplier handles prevention, response and financial recovery.
Data handling stated in the FAQ
Eye says telemetry that produced no detection is deleted after 7 days and that file content is only collected after a validated incident.
The pages read do not name the storage location, which should be asked before signing.
Quick rollout
The FAQ describes rolling out the EDR and cloud detection across a business in as little as two hours, with a few minutes of installation per workstation.
Response and insurance
When an incident is confirmed the security team investigates and, where necessary, isolates systems. A dedicated DFIR team stands by, and the insurance product is described as aligned to the same model that defends the customer.
Limitations to Consider
Eye Security publishes no prices and does not state a SOC city or data location on the pages read. The service is EDR-based and aimed at mid-sized firms, so large estates with custom log sources or on-premise SIEM requirements may find a bespoke SOC such as Northwave or NVISO a better match. Insurance terms are not shown and sit with a separate legal entity.
Who Should Use Eye Security
Dutch and European mid-market companies without their own SOC that want one contract covering monitoring, incident response and insurance.
