- Bitdefender is recognized for the fourth consecutive year in GartnerĀ® Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response (MDR).

Bitdefender has been included again as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 GartnerĀ® Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response (MDR), marking its fourth consecutive year. Gartner reports that over 600 providers worldwide offer MDR services, but only a few meet the strict criteria for inclusion in the guide. These criteria include visibility through Gartner client inquiries or Peer Insights reviews and providing user-focused services rather than purely technological solutions.
The MDR sector is growing quickly, driven by the increasing sophistication of cyber threats and a global shortage of skilled Cybersecurity personnel. While large enterprises traditionally had access to continuous monitoring and expert response teams, small and mid-sized organizations now recognize the need for similar protection without the resources to maintain in-house Security Operations Centers (SOCs).
Bitdefender MDR offers 24/7 monitoring by expert analysts supported by advanced detection technology and global threat intelligence. This service enhances organizational resilience and reduces alert fatigue by prioritizing critical alerts through AI-driven analytics. The MDR solution emphasizes proactive threat hunting to find hidden adversaries before they cause harm, enabling fast containment and minimizing business disruption.
Organizations using MDR typically see quicker threat detection, lower dwell times, and better incident recovery. The service also supports compliance requirements and improves response to attacks including Ransomware and supply-chain breaches. MDR provides continuous visibility and defense across cloud, identity, and endpoint environments.
When selecting an MDR partner, organizations should prioritize providers with capabilities in reducing exposure, identifying emerging threats early, and enabling prompt incident response. This strategy strengthens overall security posture and provides teams with confidence knowing experts monitor their environment 24/7.
