24/7 managed cybersecurity, built to work with Microsoft
Huntress protects more than 5 million endpoints and 16 million identities with fully managed security and a 24/7 security operations centre. It gets more from the Microsoft security you already own, without the cost and complexity of running your own security team.
Works with Microsoft Defender • Average response in 8 minutes
Why we work with Huntress
Huntress was founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, with a mission to make enterprise-grade security accessible to every business, not just those with big budgets. Its platform and its 24/7 security operations centre are built together and never separated, so every customer gets both the technology and the people behind it.
That focus on outcomes over alerts is why Huntress sits on our featured partner list. Many of the organisations we work with already own strong security through Microsoft 365 Business Premium, E3 or E5, but have nobody whose job is to run it day to day. Huntress puts those tools to work, adding its own detection on top of Microsoft’s signal and a team that investigates and resolves threats on your behalf.

Managed protection, built around Microsoft
Microsoft’s security tools are powerful, but they are designed with large security teams in mind and take real expertise to configure, tune and monitor. Huntress runs them for you. Built on Azure and integrated with Defender, Entra and Microsoft 365, it layers its own detection on top of Microsoft’s signal. In practice, it changes three things.
More from what you already own
Huntress manages Microsoft Defender alongside its own detection, so the security in your licences works harder and overlapping third-party tools can often be retired.
Response measured in minutes
The Huntress SOC monitors around the clock and responds in an average of 8 minutes. Because Huntress runs its own agent, it can contain and fix threats directly on your devices, not just raise a ticket.
An extension of your team
Every alert that reaches you is checked by a person and comes with context and clear next steps, so your team spends its time on planned work rather than triage.
Huntress Managed EDR
Managed endpoint detection and response for Windows, macOS and Linux workstations and servers. Huntress manages your Defender configuration and adds its own detection for persistence, lateral movement and hands-on-keyboard activity.
Huntress Managed ITDR
Identity threat detection and response for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Continuous monitoring of sign-ins and account activity stops business email compromise, session hijacking and rogue OAuth apps, with rapid response from the SOC.
Huntress Managed ISPM
Microsoft 365 hardening, done for you. Huntress sets and maintains best-practice policies across Entra, Exchange and SharePoint, and fixes configuration drift within minutes of a change.
Huntress also offers Managed SIEM for log monitoring and compliance, and Managed Security Awareness Training built on real-world threat intelligence. We scope whichever combination your estate needs.
From free trial to full protection, handled
Huntress runs the protection. We make sure it fits your Microsoft environment, get it live without disrupting your team, and stay accountable for it as part of your wider IT relationship with us.
Built around your Microsoft setup
We review your Microsoft licensing and existing security tools, so you get the most from what you already own and nobody pays twice for overlapping coverage.
Live without disruption
The Huntress agent rolled out through the management tools you already run, Microsoft 365 and Entra connected, and response contacts agreed before go-live.
Supported beyond go-live
Your Highgate account manager stays in the loop, and because we can also support your licensing and devices, Huntress’s recommendations turn into changes that actually get made.
Yes. Huntress is designed to work with Defender, not replace it. For many organisations the right move is Defender plus Huntress, retiring overlapping antivirus or endpoint tools for a simpler, Microsoft-first setup.
