As a Huntress partner, Netcentrix delivers managed detection and response (MDR) that catches what conventional security tools miss. Serving businesses of all sizes with enterprise-grade security.
Cyber criminals don’t work office hours, and neither does the protection we provide. A 24/7, human-led security operations centre (SOC) working alongside your existing IT setup, and alongside us, to hunt down hidden threats, contain them, and stop them from becoming a breach.
Bringing Huntress into our managed IT services means your business gets enterprise-grade detection and response without the cost or complexity of building it in-house. Whether you’re a CISO strengthening an existing headcount, or an SME owner who simply wants peace of mind that someone’s watching – Huntress and Netcentrix work together to keep your business protected.
Managed Detection & Response (MDR) is about more than raising an alert and leaving your team to work out what it means. With Huntress, every flagged incident is reviewed by a real analyst before it reaches you, so you’re only dealing with genuine threats – not a queue of low-priority noise.
That combination of technology and expert oversight means threats are detected, investigated and contained faster than most internal teams could manage alone – especially out of work hours, when a large percentage of attacks take place. For IT Directors juggling limited resources, it’s the difference between reacting to a breach and stopping one before it happens.
Not every threat announces itself. Attackers often establish a quiet foothold in a network – a small piece of persistence designed to let them back in later, even after the original entry point is closed off. These footholds are exactly the kind of hidden risk that traditional security tools are built to miss, since there’s often no obvious malicious file or signature to flag.
Huntress’s threat hunting goes looking for these hidden risks directly, drawing on known attacker behaviours to uncover persistent mechanisms before they can be used. It’s a proactive layer of defence that complements (rather than replaces) the security you already have in place.
Identity is now as much a target as the endpoint itself, and Microsoft 365 environments are a prime target for account takeovers, business email compromise and unauthorised access. Huntress Managed Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) monitors your Microsoft 365 tenancy for exactly this kind of compromise – suspicious sign-ins, unusual mainbox rule changes and other behaviours that suggest an account has been compromised.
For businesses that rely heavily on Microsoft 365 for email, file storage and collaboration, this identity-focused layer of protection closes a gap that endpoint security alone doesn’t cover, giving CISOs and IT Directors visibility across both devices and user accounts.
Enterprise-grade cybersecurity has traditionally been out of reach for smaller businesses, simply because building and staffing a 24/7 security operation isn’t feasible without a substantial budget and headcount. Huntress was built specifically to close that gap, giving SMEs access to the same standard of detection, threat hunting and expert oversight that much larger organisations rely on – without needing to hire a single security analyst.
For SME owners, that means real protection against ransomware, phishing and persistent threats, delivered as a managed service rather than another system to configure and monitor yourselves.
Bringing Huntress into your business is only part of the picture. As a Huntress partner, Netcentrix helps get it set up and working as part of your wider managed IT and security service, so you’re supported by a team who already understands your infrastructure – not a vendor you’ve never spoken to.
Our UK-based team works alongside the Huntress SOC to ensure detections don’t fall through the cracks and that your wider security posture (from endpoint protection through to Microsoft 365) stays consistent. Backed by our own accreditations, including our status as a Microsoft Solutions Partner and our ISO 27001 certification, Netcentrix gives CISOs, IT Directors and SME owners a single, trusted point of contact for managed cyber security, rather than another disconnected tool to manage.
Huntress is a managed cybersecurity platform built to find and eliminate threats that slip past traditional defences. Rather than relying on automation alone, Huntress pairs its detection technology with a 24/7 human-led Security Operations Centre (SOC) – real analysts who investigate suspicious activity, confirm genuine threats, and cut through the noise of false positives.
Founded by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress now protects millions of endpoints and identities for businesses worldwide, with a particular focus on organisations that don’t have the resources for a full in-house security team. It works quietly in the background of your existing systems, continuously monitoring for signs of compromise and acting fast when something’s wrong.
Beyond the managed detection and response covered above, Huntress’s platform spans managed Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), and managed SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) – giving you one joined-up view across devices, identities and the wider network, rather than separate tools that don’t talk to each other.
Huntress is built to serve organisations of every size, from SMBs through to businesses approaching the Fortune 1000, with the specific aim of protecting the 99% of companies below that top tier who are too often left underserved by enterprise-only security vendors. Whether you’re a growing mid-market business or an SME with no security team at all, Huntress scales with you rather than being something you’ll outgrow.
Huntress has worked with managed service providers since 2015, building its platform specifically around the needs of MSPs and the businesses they support, rather than adapting an enterprise product down-market. That MSP-first approach is part of why Netcentrix brought Huntress into its own managed cybersecurity offering.
Traditional antivirus is built to recognise known threats, matching files and behaviour against a library of existing signatures. It’s a necessary layer of protection, but it isn’t designed to catch an attacker who’s already found a way past it, or one using techniques that haven’t been seen before.
Huntress works differently. Rather than just scanning for known malware, it actively hunts for the persistence mechanisms and unusual behaviour that indicate someone is already inside your systems, then puts a human analyst in the loop to confirm and respond. Antivirus asks “is this file bad?” Huntress asks “has someone already got in, and what are they doing?” – and answers with people, not just software.
Cyber threats don’t stop at 5pm, and neither do we. If you’re ready to close the gaps that traditional security tools leave open, get in touch with Netcentrix to find out how Huntress could fit into your security strategy – whether that’s strengthening an existing setup or building managed detection and response into your business for the first time.
