Field Effect

Managed Detection and Response

One Service. Cloud, Network, Devices.

Field Effect monitors all three at once. Its analysts investigate, then tell you what to do in plain language. The platform was built by people who came out of signals intelligence work.

Cloud Network Devices Analyst review Then a plain instruction
3 surfaces Watched Together

Cloud, network and endpoint in one service. Most incidents cross at least two of them.

Ottawa Where It Is Built

A Canadian company serving North America and the UK. Data residency is a fair question to ask early.

Plain English What You Receive

Findings arrive as instructions. No interpretation homework for your team.

Two tiers Sized To The Client

A lighter tier exists for very small environments. Ask which one you are being quoted.

Where coverage breaks

Most Stacks Watch One Layer

An endpoint tool sees endpoints. That is the whole problem, stated simply.

The blind spot

The Attack Starts Somewhere Else

A cloud account is phished. No endpoint is touched. Mail is read for weeks. Your endpoint product never had anything to say, and it was working correctly the whole time.

The cost

Found Late

Discovery usually comes from a customer, a bank, or a bounced invoice.

Network

Traffic Tells On Attackers

Command and control has a shape. You only see it if something is watching the wire.

Cloud

Identity Is The New Perimeter

Sign-ins, consent grants and mail rules are where modern intrusions live.

Endpoint

Still Necessary

Ransomware still lands on a machine. One layer is not enough; none of them are optional.

What the service provides

Monitoring, Then A Decision

The platform is called Covalence in older material. Field Effect now markets it as Field Effect MDR.

Honest qualification

Who Should Buy This

Strong fit

Small Teams, Real Exposure

Organizations under a few hundred staff with no security specialist. Especially those with an on-site network worth watching: clinics, law firms, manufacturers, professional services.

Weaker fit

You Already Run A SOC

A staffed operations centre with its own tooling will find heavy overlap. The honest conversation is about a specific gap, not a replacement.

Ask first

Network Coverage Needs Hardware Placement

Traffic monitoring means something sits on your network. Confirm what gets installed, where, and who maintains it.

Ask first

Who Acts, And Who Advises

Get it in writing: which actions the analysts take themselves, and which they hand to you. That single answer changes what you still need to staff.

In short

Find The Layer Nobody Watches

Name the three surfaces you run. Say who currently watches each one. The gap is usually obvious within five minutes.
