MDR vs SOC como Servicio: Which Is Right for You?
Both MDR and SOC como Servicio outsource your security operations — but they differ in scope, pricing, and who controls the response. Here's how to choose.
What is MDR?
MDR (Detección y Respuesta Gestionada) focuses on threat detection and active response. The provider manages technology deployment, monitoring, and incident containment. MDR is typically narrower in scope but deeper in capability — the provider owns the response.
What is SOC como Servicio?
SOC como Servicio es un fully outsourced Seguridad Operaciones Center. It covers everything MDR does, plus compliance reporting, vulnerability management, security awareness training, and broader governance. It's a more complete outsourced security program.
