THF helps MSSP partners to reduce the detection time to few minutes and offers collaborative research with best industry experts.

Threat Hunting Framework has been recognized as one of the leaders in Network Detection and Response by the European analyst agency KuppingerCole Analysts AG.

With our MSSP & MDR program we don’t just provide our partners with the technology: we’ll be at their side from the moment they sign the agreement, during monitoring and response cases as well as customer success activities to ensure they are constantly showing the value to their clients. Our MSSP and MDR partners get ongoing support, special training from top threat hunters, and pre- and post-sales and marketing assistance. We help our partners to grow their own threat hunting team and develop mature SOC practice.
