Ottawa, Ontario, November 9th / PRNewswire / -- Global cybersecurity company Field Effect specializes in Managed Detection and Response (MDR). The company stated that for the fifth consecutive year, it has been rated as a leader in the MDR quadrant in the "2026 Managed Detection and Response Quadrant Report" published by Info - Tech Research Group, and it received the highest overall score among the 15 products evaluated.
According to the verified customer feedback collected through the SoftwareReviews platform of Info-Tech, Field Effect MDR has a comprehensive score of 9.5 out of 10 (with a full score of 10). 97% of customers stated that they would be likely to recommend this solution, and the Net Emotion Index (Net Emotional Footprint) scores +98.
The company stated that this recognition is due to Field Effect's significant expansion of Field Effect MDR's capabilities over the past year, the introduction of new protections against emerging threats, and the enhancement of existing functions, all while bringing greater value to customers.
Field Effect, the founder and CEO, stated: "I am immensely proud of our team and the achievements we have built and accomplished. Based on customer feedback, we have been recognized as leaders in MDR for five consecutive years, which proves the professional competence, dedication, and hard work of our team. We have always believed that excellent cybersecurity means anticipating what will happen next, not just reacting to what has already occurred. This year, we have taken another big step forward by adding significant new capabilities and enhancements to Field Effect MDR, including AIDR, the next generation of ITDR, and NGAV. We are providing our customers with stronger protection, greater visibility, and more confidence in security. And we have just begun."
