DNV Cyber is thrilled to announce its inclusion in the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA). This prestigious recognition underscores the company’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions and to protecting its clients’ digital assets. In addition to the MISA membership, DNV Cyber’s MXDR service has now been recognized with the Microsoft-verified Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) solution status. 

MISA is an ecosystem of independent software vendors and managed security service providers that have integrated their solutions with Microsoft’s security technology to ensure world-class protection capabilities against cyber threats. Being part of this association allows DNV Cyber to collaborate with other industry leaders, share insights, and enhance its offering to better serve its clients.

“We are honored to be part of MISA,” says Jan Mickos, Director of DNV Cyber’s Managed Services. “This recognition not only validates our efforts in the cybersecurity space but also provides us with an incredible opportunity to collaborate with Microsoft and other cybersecurity organizations. Together, we can drive innovation and deliver even more robust security solutions to our clients.”

“Our solutions are recognized by Microsoft, reflecting the quality and effectiveness of our cybersecurity offering. MISA membership is, by nomination only, making this achievement even more significant for us,” Mickos continues.

Through the MISA membership, DNV Cyber gains access to extensive resources that can be utilized for the benefit of its customers. This includes exclusive training, support, and tools from Microsoft, making it possible to stay ahead of emerging threats and continue to provide top-tier security services.

Since joining MISA, DNV Cyber has been working closely with Microsoft on developing its MXDR solution. DNV Cyber is therefore excited to announce that it has achieved the Microsoft-verified Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) solution status. By achieving this status, DNV Cyber has proven its robust MXDR services, including a Security Operation Center (SOC) with 24/7/365 proactive hunting, monitoring, and response capabilities, all built on tight integrations with the Microsoft Security platform. This solution combines expert-trained technology with human-led services and has been verified by Microsoft engineers.

DNV Cyber’s vision for protecting clients is to play a key role in identifying, protecting, detecting, and responding seamlessly to achieve one goal—secured business continuity 24/7. By using a powerful combination of Microsoft SIEM and XDR, the DNV Cyber Managed XDR monitors the complete environment using both native cross-domain detections in XDR and expert-crafted detections based on SIEM-connected data sources. DNV Cyber's SOC detects threats, investigates security incidents and mitigates any identified threats. In addition to the 24/7 detection and response capability, DNV Cyber Managed XDR service includes continuous, proactive technology and security posture management for the XDR platform.

“With malicious attacks on the rise, we understand security is front and center for our customers. That is why I am excited to congratulate DNV Cyber on achieving Microsoft Verified: Managed Extended Detection and Response solution status. Their solution closely integrates with Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel and has been verified by Microsoft Security engineering to ensure that it provides comprehensive service coverage across the Microsoft Security portfolio,” said Rob Lefferts, CVP, Modern Protection and SOC, Microsoft.

DNV Cyber continuously develops, expands, and improves its services and solutions. We stay closely involved and attentive to the activities of our technology partners, ensuring that we are always at the forefront of innovation in the cybersecurity industry. The latest additions to our service offering include Defender for Cloud support as part of Managed XDR and Managed XDR introductory workshops, which are offered to new customers in collaboration with Microsoft.
