The MSSP reality

Alert volume is up. Margins are down. Clients want more for less.

Every new tenant means more alerts your SOC has to triage, more analyst hours you can't bill for, and more pressure on margins that were already thin. Detection-first stacks scale linearly with headcount. That's not a business model anymore. It's a treadmill.

Shield changes the math.
Why MSSPs choose INTRUSION

Three outcomes that move the P&L.

Shield doesn't add to your SOC workload. It subtracts from it, while opening a new revenue line.

8.5B
IP reputation records

Fewer alerts reach the SOC

Malicious traffic is blocked at the network layer before it becomes an incident, backed by proprietary intelligence built since 2001. Your analysts spend less time on noise, more time on client value.

1 SOC
Unlimited tenants

Overhead stays flat as you scale

Multi-tenant by design. One console, clean per-client isolation, alerts auto-tagged for routing. Add tenants without adding analyst headcount, so your cost-to-serve drops every month.

Day 1
Billable service line

Recurring revenue you didn't have

Sell Shield standalone, bundle it with MDR, or lead with prevention to unseat detection-first competitors. Observe-only mode means you can prove value before a client commits.

How it works

Three steps. One clean story you tell your clients.

1

Deploy

Stand up Shield in observe-only mode on cloud, on-premise, or both. Map tenants. Confirm visibility. No client disruption.

2

Block

Shield blocks malicious traffic bi-directionally using 8.5B IP reputation records. Autonomous. No analyst babysitting.

3

Report & prove

Per-tenant dashboards, block volume, threat attribution. Client-ready QBR outputs that justify the monthly spend.

Questions MSSPs ask first

Straight answers.

No. Shield coexists with your MDR, SIEM, EDR, and firewall layers. Most partners deploy it as a prevention layer in front of the rest of their stack. It reduces the alert load those tools generate, so you get more value out of what you already have.
You can start with one tenant in observe-only mode to validate fit before committing to a broader rollout. We structure partner terms to scale with your business. Specifics are covered in the partner application conversation.
Observe-only mode lets you show value within days of deployment. Most partners move from signed agreement to first billable client inside the same quarter. Your named partner contact maps out the specifics based on your ramp.
No agents required for core coverage. Shield operates on network traffic metadata. Observe-only mode runs as a passive tap with no inline changes to client environments. You can deploy without scheduling maintenance windows.
Named partner success contact (not a ticket queue), direct escalation path to INTRUSION engineering, deal registration, co-sell support, and sales enablement materials including client-ready battle cards and objection handling.
You do. INTRUSION handles the intelligence layer, platform operations, and escalation support. You own the client, the reporting conversations, and the QBRs. Clear lines, no land grabs on your book.
