Limited visibility
Focused on a narrow set of integrations and telemetry, with gaps across identity systems, cloud applications, and full log data.
RocketCyber provides managed detection and response for MSPs, but its approach is limited in visibility and depth. Blumira delivers full visibility across logs, cloud applications, identity, and endpoints with built-in detection and response (EDR + ITDR), so you can detect and stop threats across your entire environment, not just a subset of activity.
Coverage and control, side by side
Same MSP environment. Two very different depths.
The limits of RocketCyber
RocketCyber is designed to give MSPs a simple way to add MDR services. While it makes security monitoring easier to deploy, it often lacks the depth, visibility, and correlation needed for comprehensive protection.
How deep the detection goes
Lightweight MDR reaches the surface. The depth, visibility, and correlation needed for full protection sit below it.
Focused on a narrow set of integrations and telemetry, with gaps across identity systems, cloud applications, and full log data.
Limited correlation across environments makes it harder to detect complex or multi-stage attacks.
Detection and response are handled externally, reducing your ability to investigate and act independently.
Often requires additional tools to achieve complete visibility and coverage.
Simple MDR for MSPs, but limited depth, visibility, and coverage across your environment.
The alternative
Blumira goes beyond lightweight MDR to deliver full visibility and control across your environment. By combining SIEM with built-in endpoint detection and response (EDR) and identity threat detection (ITDR), Blumira helps MSPs and IT teams detect, investigate, and respond to threats across endpoints, cloud applications, identity systems, and logs in one platform.
01 / Full visibility
Monitor activity across endpoints, logs, cloud applications, and identity systems.
02 / Detection scope
Correlate activity across endpoints, identity, and cloud to identify complex threats.
03 / No tuning
Pre-built detections maintained by security experts so you don't have to write or manage rules.
04 / Built-in response
Investigate and take action directly from a finding with guided response workflows.
05 / MSP scale
Predictable pricing designed for MSP margins without adding tools or overhead.
06 / Expert + control
Get expert assistance when you need it, without relying on a fully outsourced model.
Built for full visibility and scalability, not just lightweight monitoring.
Capability by capability
Nine dimensions that determine whether you have lightweight MDR or a full security platform. Here's where each tool lands.
| Capability | Blumira | RocketCyber |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Full environment (logs, identity, cloud, endpoints) | Limited visibility |
| Detection Scope | Cross-environment correlation | Narrow |
| Identity Visibility | Built-in (ITDR) | Limited |
| Cloud App Visibility | Built-in | Limited |
| Log Management | Full SIEM with complete log visibility and retention | Limited |
| Response | Guided response with built-in automation | Managed response with limited control |
| Control | Full control over detection and response | Limited control, dependent on service model |
| Tool Consolidation | Single unified platform | Requires multiple tools for broader coverage |
| Scalability | Built to scale across environments and MSPs | Moderate scalability with limited depth |
Why lightweight MDR has limits
Lightweight MDR solutions are designed for simplicity, but that simplicity often comes at the cost of visibility, detection depth, and control. Without full context across your environment, it becomes harder to detect, investigate, and stop modern attacks.
Attacks move across endpoints, identity, and cloud environments, not just a single data source.
Without visibility across systems, threats can be missed or lack the context needed to respond effectively.
As environments grow, lightweight tools can become limiting and require additional solutions.
ROCKETCYBER
Provides lightweight MDR monitoring.
BLUMIRA
Delivers full visibility, detection, and response in one platform.
Outcomes that matter
Gain full visibility across your entire environment.
Detect complex threats with better cross-environment correlation.
Reduce tool sprawl and simplify your security stack.
Scale MSP security operations without adding complexity.
Make the call
The right solution depends on your security needs, team structure, and the level of visibility and control you require.
Choose Blumira if you:
01
Need full visibility across endpoints, identity, cloud, and logs.
02
Want to move beyond basic MDR to a more complete security platform.
03
Are looking to consolidate tools and reduce complexity.
04
Need security that scales as your environment grows.
05
Prefer guided detection and response without relying on external services.
If your MDR solution provides limited visibility or requires additional tools for full coverage, it may be time to move to a more complete and scalable approach.
