Introducing HyperDEF AI SOC Platform. It's FREE. You Only Pay for the Analysts Behind It

Key Highlights (TL;DR)

  • The HyperDEF AI SOC Platform is completely free for every HyperDEF Managed Detection and Response (MDR) customer.
  • No software licensing fees, platform subscriptions, or hidden dashboard costs.
  • You only pay for what truly protects your business: experienced security analysts monitoring and responding to threats.
  • Evidence-based AI investigations with confidence scoring and transparent decision making.
  • Human approval for high-impact response actions unless your organization explicitly enables automation.
  • Cryptographically verifiable audit logs for compliance and forensic integrity.
  • Executive and technical reports generated from the same trusted evidence.
  • Works with leading security technologies including Microsoft Defender XDR, CrowdStrike Falcon, Huntress, VirusTotal, Microsoft Teams, Jira, ServiceNow, Microsoft Entra ID, and more.
  • Evaluate the platform with a 14-day trial before beginning your MDR engagement.

The Traditional SOC Model Is Broken

For nearly two decades, organizations purchasing a Security Operations Center (SOC) solution have typically paid for two separate products:

  • A security platform requiring ongoing software licensing.
  • A managed security team charging separately for monitoring and response.

In many cases these components even came from different vendors. When incidents occurred, organizations often found themselves managing multiple contracts, multiple support teams, and multiple points of accountability.

Meanwhile, companies continued paying software licensing fees regardless of whether the platform improved detection quality or reduced analyst workload.

We believe cybersecurity should work differently.

That's why HyperDEF has fundamentally changed the pricing model.

Introducing the HyperDEF AI SOC Platform

Starting today, the HyperDEF AI SOC Platform is included at no additional licensing cost for every HyperDEF MDR customer.

This isn't a limited edition. This isn't a basic version. This isn't a temporary trial.

You receive the complete AI SOC Platform because we believe the platform exists for one purpose:

To make our security analysts better at protecting your business.

Instead of charging separately for software, we charge only for the cybersecurity outcome that matters a professional Managed Detection and Response team actively defending your environment.

Why We Removed Platform Licensing

Every SOC buying conversation eventually arrives at the same question:

"What exactly am I paying the platform license for?"

Modern AI already performs alert triage. Security analysts provide the expertise. The software enables the workflow.

If the platform's only purpose is helping analysts perform better, charging customers separately for access no longer makes sense.

Instead, we want customers to evaluate us based on measurable security outcomes, not software licensing.

Built Around Trustworthy AI

HyperDEF is not simply another SIEM with an AI chatbot attached. Every capability was designed around one guiding principle:

The platform never fabricates evidence.

Capability How HyperDEF Works
Evidence-Based Investigations Every AI conclusion is backed by stored evidence. If sufficient evidence doesn't exist, HyperDEF clearly reports "Insufficient Evidence."
Confidence Scoring Each finding includes confidence levels linked directly to supporting evidence.
Transparent Metrics Measured metrics are shown as actual values. Estimated figures are clearly labelled with their assumptions.
Human Approval Critical actions such as endpoint isolation or account suspension require analyst approval unless your organization enables automated execution.
Immutable Audit Logs Every action is hash-chained to provide tamper-evident audit records for compliance and forensic investigations.
Executive & Technical Reporting Generate board-ready summaries or detailed technical reports from the exact same evidence source.

AI That Knows When It Doesn't Know

One of the biggest risks in modern AI systems is overconfidence.

HyperDEF intentionally avoids pretending to know something it cannot verify.

If available evidence cannot support a reliable conclusion, the platform openly states that additional investigation is required.

That transparency helps security teams make better decisions while maintaining trust in every investigation.

Designed Around Human Decision Making

AI can investigate alerts within seconds.

However, certain actions should remain under human control.

HyperDEF therefore proposes response actions together with the evidence, reasoning, and confidence behind every recommendation.

Your organization determines:

  • Which actions can execute automatically
  • Required confidence thresholds
  • Severity requirements
  • Approval workflows

The AI performs the investigation. Your security team remains in control.

Works With Your Existing Security Stack

Organizations shouldn't need to replace their existing investments just to adopt a modern SOC.

HyperDEF integrates with technologies you already trust, including:

  • Microsoft Defender XDR
  • CrowdStrike Falcon
  • Huntress
  • VirusTotal
  • GreyNoise
  • AbuseIPDB
  • Slack
  • Microsoft Teams
  • Jira
  • ServiceNow
  • Microsoft Entra ID (Single Sign-On)

You retain full ownership of your integrations while HyperDEF accelerates onboarding through built-in default services where appropriate.

Simple Pricing That Aligns With Security Outcomes

Service Cost Included
HyperDEF AI SOC Platform FREE Dashboard, AI investigations, response workflows, threat intelligence enrichment, reporting, audit logs and role-based access.
HyperDEF Managed Detection & Response (MDR) Paid Service Dedicated security analysts monitoring, investigating and responding to threats using the HyperDEF platform.

No additional software licensing. No platform renewal negotiations. No dashboard subscription fees.

Just one accountable security team supported by one modern AI SOC platform.

Try Before You Commit

Organizations can evaluate HyperDEF through a 14-day assessment period using their own security environment.

Connect your existing EDR, observe real investigations, inspect evidence-backed findings, and review the complete audit trail before beginning your MDR engagement.

A Better Way to Buy Security Operations

Cybersecurity should never charge organizations for software that doesn't directly make them safer.

We believe customers should invest in expertise, accountability, and measurable security outcomes, not unnecessary platform licensing.

That's why the HyperDEF AI SOC Platform is free.

You simply pay for the analysts protecting your business.
