Red Canary delivers alert fatigue relief for security teams

DENVER, Colorado, October 1, 2020 — Red Canary, a leading provider of security operations solutions, introduces Red Canary Alert Center – a single destination that intelligently prioritizes alerts from across the security stack improving security outcomes. This new offering is complementary to Red Canary Managed Detection and Response (MDR), and significantly reduces the number of alerts security teams must manage.

Alerts that matter can quickly be found through prioritization, analytics, tuning and Red Canary’s CIRT investigating high-severity alerts that correlate with endpoint telemetry.
