Why Enterprises Move to Managed Security Services
Alerts across six consoles
Two people reading them, and nobody certain which alert mattered.
No cover after 8pm
Nights, weekends and festival breaks run unwatched.
Three-shift cover needs six analysts
That is a hiring plan you cannot fill at the salaries on offer.
The CERT-In six-hour clock
The window starts at detection and nothing is prepared in advance.
Good tools on default settings
Licences bought, tuning never done, detections never validated.
Security questionnaires stall deals
Enterprise buyers ask for evidence nobody has time to assemble.
What Our Managed Security Services Cover
Alerts across six consoles, two people reading them
One correlated queue
Telemetry from endpoint, network, cloud and identity lands in a single pipeline. Analysts work one ranked queue instead of six consoles.
No cover after 8pm or over festival breaks
Genuine 24/7 SOC cover
Three-shift staffing across the full calendar, including national holidays and festival breaks, with named escalation at every hour.
Three-shift cover needs six analysts you cannot hire
A team you rent, not recruit
You get the analyst bench, the tooling and the process without carrying six salaries, the attrition risk or the training overhead.
The CERT-In six-hour clock with nothing prepared
Reporting prepared in advance
Report templates, evidence collection and the escalation path are agreed during onboarding, so the six-hour window is met from a standing process.
Good tools running on default settings
Tuning before go-live
Detections are tuned against your estate and validated before monitoring starts, so your existing licences finally do what you bought them for.
Security questionnaires holding up enterprise deals
Evidence on demand
Control evidence, monitoring records and incident history are kept current, so a security review is answered from a pack rather than a scramble.
Why Choose NetNXT as Your Managed Security Service Provider in India
Built for Indian regulation
DPDP Act, CERT-In six-hour reporting and in-jurisdiction log retention are designed into the service rather than bolted on for an audit.
Vendor neutral by design
We run what you already own. Recommendations are made on fit, not on which licence we would rather resell.
Full stack, one accountable team
Endpoint, network, cloud, identity and compliance under a single team, so no incident falls into the gap between two suppliers.
Outcomes on record
500+ organisations secured over 11+ years, with partner awards from SentinelOne and JumpCloud for delivered client results.
What Our MSSP Services Include

MSSP vs MDR vs Managed SOC vs In-House Security
An in-house team gives you the deepest context on your own environment, and for a large organisation with the budget to staff three shifts it is the stronger long-term answer. The question is whether you can fund and retain six analysts before you need cover.
| Consideration | In-house team | NetNXT MSSP |
|---|---|---|
| Time to full cover | Six to twelve months of hiring and tooling | Four weeks to 24/7 monitoring |
| Headcount required | Six analysts minimum for genuine three-shift cover | None. The bench is ours |
| Cost shape | Fixed salary cost regardless of incident volume | Predictable monthly cost that scales with estate |
| Cover during attrition | One resignation reopens a shift gap | Continuous. Staffing is our problem, not yours |
| Threat intelligence | Bought separately and read when there is time | Included and applied to your detections |
| Compliance evidence | Assembled manually when an audit lands | Kept current as part of the service |
| Best fit | Large enterprises that can fund and retain a full team, and want deep in-house context | Teams that need cover now, or cannot justify six security salaries |
MDR is a narrower, sharper service: detection and response on your telemetry, and very good at it. If your compliance load is light and your devices are already well managed, a pure MDR provider is cheaper and the sensible choice. An MSSP earns its wider scope when device management and compliance evidence are also unowned.
| Consideration | MDR provider | NetNXT MSSP |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Detection and response on existing telemetry | Detection, response and management of the controls themselves |
| Telemetry covered | Usually endpoint, often extended to identity | Endpoint, network, cloud and identity |
| Firewall management | Out of scope. You keep managing it | Managed, reviewed and change-controlled |
| Vulnerability management | Typically not included | Continuous discovery and risk-ranked remediation |
| Compliance evidence | Incident records only | Control evidence maintained for audits and customer reviews |
| CERT-In six-hour report | Supplies incident detail, you file it | Prepared and filed inside the window from a standing process |
| Best fit | Well-managed estates with a light compliance load, where detection is the only real gap. Genuinely cheaper for that case | Estates where device management, compliance evidence and detection are all unowned |
A managed SOC watches and tells you. An MSSP watches, tells you, and then does something about it. If you have a capable internal team that wants alerts rather than intervention, a managed SOC is the cleaner fit and keeps remediation in your control.
| Consideration | Managed SOC | NetNXT MSSP |
|---|---|---|
| Monitoring and analysis | Yes, this is the whole service | Yes, and it is the starting point |
| Who remediates | Your team, from the SOC's ticket | NetNXT, on your confirmation |
| Device and firewall management | Not included | Included and change-controlled |
| Identity and cloud posture | Monitored if you feed it in | Monitored and managed |
| Tool tuning before go-live | Usually your responsibility | Done during onboarding and validated |
| Number of suppliers | SOC plus whoever manages the controls | One accountable team |
| Best fit | Organisations with a capable internal team that wants alerting and intends to keep remediation in-house | Organisations that want detection and remediation owned by the same team |
Managed Security Services Pricing in India
Managed security is usually priced one of three ways: per endpoint or user per month, per volume of logs ingested, or a fixed monthly retainer. What moves the number is estate size, how many services you take, number of sites, the response tier you need and how long logs must be retained.
Essential
For teams whose first gap is that nobody is watching out of hours.
- 24/7 SOC monitoring
- Endpoint and identity telemetry
- Monthly reporting
- Escalation to your team
Enterprise
For estates where detection, network and cloud all need an owner.
- Everything in Essential
- Network, cloud and firewall management
- Response and containment
- Vulnerability management
Regulated
For BFSI, healthcare and any business facing regular audits.
- Everything in Enterprise
- CERT-In reporting inside six hours
- In-jurisdiction log retention
- Audit and questionnaire evidence pack
Estimate your annual cost
Indicative annual cost
Assumptions behind these figures
In-house assumes 6 analysts, the minimum for genuine three-shift cover, at ₹18 L each per year fully loaded. It adds ₹1,200 per endpoint per year for log platform licensing and ₹2,500 per endpoint per year for EDR and security tooling, a fixed ₹15 L per year for training, certifications and tooling, and ₹1 L per site per year for collectors and network kit.
Managed assumes ₹170 per endpoint per month for the first service and ₹55 per endpoint per month for each additional service, plus ₹9,000 per site per month.
All figures exclude GST. Log volume is the largest real variable and is not modelled here, because it depends on your sources and retention period. Response tier and forensic retention are quoted separately. This is a planning estimate to size the decision, not a quotation.
Managed Security Services for DPDP Act, CERT-In and ISO 27001 Compliance

How to Choose a Managed Security Service Provider
Ten questions worth putting to any provider you are evaluating, including us. If a provider cannot answer these plainly, that is the answer.
- Do they staff three genuine shifts, or forward alerts to an on-call phone after hours?
- Is the time-to-detect figure contractual, or marketing copy?
- Do they remediate, or only tell you what they found?
- Will they manage the tools you already own, or insist you re-buy their stack?
- Who files the CERT-In report inside the six-hour window, you or them?
- Where are your logs stored, and for how long?
- Do they tune detections before go-live, or start monitoring on defaults?
- Can they produce audit evidence on demand, or assemble it when asked?
- Is there one accountable team, or several suppliers pointing at each other?
- Will they tell you when a narrower service like MDR is the better fit, including us?
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing usually follows one of three models: per endpoint or user per month, per volume of logs ingested, or a fixed monthly retainer. What moves the number is estate size, how many services you take, number of sites, response tier and log retention period. The calculator on this page gives a planning estimate against in-house cost. A costed proposal follows the assessment, once actual log volume and response tier are known.
MDR focuses on detecting and responding to threats in your existing telemetry, usually endpoint and identity. An MSSP covers that and also manages the controls themselves, including firewalls, cloud posture, vulnerability management and compliance evidence. If your devices are already well managed and your compliance load is light, a pure MDR provider is cheaper and the sensible choice. An MSSP earns its scope when those areas are unowned.
CERT-In requires certain incidents to be reported within six hours of detection, and logs to be retained in-jurisdiction for 180 days. An MSSP prepares that in advance: report templates, evidence collection and escalation paths agreed during onboarding, plus retention configured to the required period. Under the DPDP Act, personal data is mapped and access controlled so breach notification can be produced from a standing process rather than assembled under pressure.
No. NetNXT is vendor neutral and builds on the stack you have. Most estates already own capable tooling that was never tuned past its default settings, so onboarding starts by validating and tuning what is there. We recommend a replacement only where a genuine capability gap exists, and we will say when your existing licence covers it. Around 400 tool integrations are supported.
Four weeks for a typical estate. Week one is assessment, discovery and log source mapping. Weeks two and three connect collectors and integrations and tune detections against your environment. Week four goes live with validated detections, agreed escalation paths and reporting templates already in place. Larger or more fragmented estates take longer, and we agree the timeline against your actual environment during the assessment.
