The SOC doesn’t need another security silo. It needs control.
We won’t patronize you with stats. You know the CVE count, you know the cost of a breach. And no Rubik’s Cube of cybersecurity acronyms is going to solve all that.
From our conversations with the 1,000+ CISOs and dozens of MSSPs we work with, it’s clear that organizations are facing two primary challenges. The first is an exploding attack surface, targeted by an exponentially growing number of attacks.
The second challenge isn’t talked about nearly enough: strained security teams are juggling fragmented tools that compound coverage gaps across AI agents, identities, cloud environments, exposed assets, and endpoints. Each of these represents a facet of your attack surface, a.k.a. wherever work happens. For MSSPs, that challenge is amplified: more customers, more environments, more complexity… and more pressure to scale without adding operational overhead.
Beyond the silos themselves, these “solutions” are often riddled with multiple heavy agents, vendor lock-in, cloud-only deployments, and bolted-on AI built more for investors than analysts. In short, a fundamental lack of control.
The lifeblood of SOC teams is detection and response: the signals and context needed to understand threats, paired with the actions to investigate and remediate them. So how do you detect and respond in this siloed, post-Mythos world?
That’s where we come in.
Introducing Workspace Detection and Response
Back in 2018, we entered the endpoint space. Today, we own it. And while the 3+ million endpoints we protect remain a primary target for attackers, they’re far from the whole story. Now, we are extending our mastery of detection and response to the entire workspace. Your workspace—endpoints, identities, exposed assets, cloud environments, AI agents—is the new frontline. We cover all of it.
To be clear, we don’t believe one platform can or should do everything. That would require compromising the performance of the best-in-class solutions within it, and that’s something we refuse to do. But the market is consolidating, from hundreds of tools to a handful. We will be one of them.
Our Workspace Detection and Response (WDR) Platform tackles the unprecedented threats and fragmentation teams face. If that sounds like XDR with a new coat of paint, let’s just say we’re solving for X. Gartner’s recognition of Workspace Security as an emerging category reinforces the shift we’re leading.
At HarfangLab, that starts with a single lightweight agent and flexible deployment: on-premises, air-gapped, and private or public cloud. It’s your security, your choice. We are and always will be open by design, from custom detection rules to a 100% open API. And because great technology is only as useful as it is for the people using it, we built Kio, our native AI assistant.
We get it. Security teams don’t need another interface that summarizes what they already know. They need tech that turns signals into decisions and decisions into action. Kio gives analysts natural-language access to HarfangLab’s security knowledge and telemetry, helping them investigate events, analyze PowerShell scripts, navigate documentation, connect the dots across an incident, and accelerate remediation. All with full data confidentiality.
And this is just our first step toward an increasingly agentic SOC, where AI goes beyond answering questions to autonomously investigate, reason, and act.
What’s Inside the Platform?
Together, these core capabilities translate into six solutions, unified in one platform:
- Attack Surface Management (ASM)
Identify vulnerabilities and exposed assets before attackers do. Vulnerability management prioritizes the CVEs that matter to your environment, while Shadow IT discovery surfaces unknown and unprotected assets. Patching keeps operating systems and applications up to date.
- Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)
Protect endpoints against threats with signature-based antivirus, local firewall controls, and USB security. Block malicious activity before it becomes an incident.
- Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)
Detect, investigate, and respond across the endpoint. Multiple detection engines combine signature-based YARA rules, behavioral Sigma rules, AI detection, and more to identify threats. File integrity monitoring detects unauthorized changes, while tasks, commands, and Remote Shell give analysts the tools to investigate and remediate. The result? Industry-leading performance, validated by MITRE.
- Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR)
Bring identities into the same detection and response picture. Native connections to Entra ID and Active Directory let you visualize human and non-human identities across groups, hierarchy, location, and AI agents to detect, investigate, and quarantine compromised or rogue identities.
- Email Security
Protect the inbox and control the flow of email with detection and filtering for malware, spam, phishing, and malicious URLs. Secure gateway capabilities, S/MIME signing, customizable disclaimers, and encryption and decryption give organizations control over email security without sacrificing flexibility.
- AI Detection and Response (AIDR)
Artificial Intelligence isn’t just changing how the SOC operates. It is also changing what the SOC needs to protect. AI agents are already a part of your workspace. That makes them part of your attack surface. AI Detection and Response brings visibility and security controls to this new class of non-human actors.
Combined, these solutions give the SOC the visibility and control to detect and respond across the workspace.
No fragmentation. More coverage. One unified platform powered by a single lightweight agent and AI built for cyber.
Certified by ANSSI and BSI, and recognized by Gartner and Forrester, we extend detection and response to protect the modern workspace—from on-prem to the cloud, wherever work happens.
HarfangLab is the European leader in Workspace Detection and Response.
