It’s 3:00 am and your phone buzzes with an urgent alert. Ransomware is spreading across a client’s network—endpoint to endpoint—encrypting files that keep their business running. One click gave attackers a foothold, and now the clock is ticking.
For MSPs, this is a familiar nightmare. You’re expected to stop attacks in their tracks, restore operations before clients feel the pain, and do it all without adding overhead your team can’t absorb. Prevention alone won’t cut it. Clients need you to be their first and last line of defense—ready to detect, respond, and recover at any hour.
That challenge is also your opportunity. Every late-night alert is a chance to prove value, strengthen trust, and expand services. With the right platform, MSPs can not only shut down threats faster but also build recurring revenue and deliver the kind of protection that wins and keeps business.
This is how OpenText™ endpoint security helps MSPs win.
OpenText endpoint security delivers next-generation protection and advanced detection and response through one lightweight agent—giving your MSP the edge to outpace attackers, outperform competitors, and capture market share.
OpenText endpoint security: one agent, one platform, complete protection
OpenText endpoint security reshapes how you deliver cybersecurity for your clients. By unifying endpoint protection and endpoint detection and response in a single lightweight agent and centralized platform, you can reduce complexity, strengthen defenses, and scale services with ease. It’s the modern foundation for protecting your clients and growing your business.
And if you want 24/7 expert coverage without expanding your team, OpenText Managed Detection & Response (MDR) adds round-the-clock monitoring and incident response on the same trusted platform.
The innovation that changes everything:
- Single unified platform
Managing too many tools steals time from your team and slows client outcomes. Our Secure Cloud platform brings endpoint protection, detection, response, SIEM, SOAR, and vulnerability assessment into one console. With pre-built policies and centralized oversight, your team works smarter and can focus on adding value instead of wrestling with tool sprawl. - Single agent, lightning-fast deployment
One agent, instant coverage. Skip the headaches of clunky installs. Our feather-light agent rolls out fast, scales effortlessly, and runs so quietly your clients will only notice the stronger protection—not any slowdown. - Built-in SIEM and SOAR
Why pay extra for features that should come standard? Unlike other vendors that bolt on SIEM modules or separate SOAR tools, adding cost and complexity, OpenText delivers these capabilities natively—no additional purchases required. With correlation and automation built into the platform, your team can run advanced SOC workflows from one console and deliver enterprise-grade services without the enterprise-sized investment. - Aviator agentic alert management
Think of it as your virtual security analyst, always on shift to prioritize alerts, provide contextual threat insights, and recommend response actions in plain language. Aviator’s agentic alert management fights alert fatigue, slashes false positives, and removes skill barriers so you can deliver SOC-level protection without adding headcount.
Why now's the time to upgrade your OpenText EP customers to EDR
Prevention alone isn’t enough anymore. OpenText Core Endpoint Protection stops countless threats at the door, but attackers today move too fast and too deep. Your MSP needs more than prevention—you need the visibility and speed to contain what slips through.
That’s where OpenText™ Core EDR comes in. It builds on your existing endpoint protection with continuous monitoring, built-in SIEM and SOAR, AI-powered triage from Aviator, and integrated vulnerability assessment. You get the context to detect advanced threats and the automation to shut them down quickly—without adding extra tools or operational complexity.
Your clients can’t afford delays—and neither can you. According to a Unit 42 report, 70% of attacks hit three or more fronts, underscoring the need to secure endpoints, networks, cloud, and people together. A phishing email bypasses a gateway, lands on an endpoint, and detonates in minutes. Endpoint protection blocks many of these attempts, while EDR uncovers and shuts down anything that slips through.
Together, OpenText endpoint security delivers true end-to-end defense. Your clients stay protected, your operations stay streamlined, and your MSP gains a growth-ready service that strengthens trust and expands revenue.
Proven results, real growth
MSPs running OpenText endpoint security see the difference fast: quicker incident response, lower overhead, and happier clients who know their data is protected. But the real win is growth. By packaging endpoint protection, detection, and response into a single service, MSPs deliver value competitors can’t match—and grow recurring revenue in the process.
The market is moving your way. Today, 65% of cyber insurers require organizations to have EDR or MDR in place. With OpenText, you can check that box instantly, help clients stay insurable, and win new business that others leave on the table.
OpenText endpoint security isn’t just stronger protection—it’s a growth engine. It equips you to safeguard client trust, expand your services, and prove your value every time an attacker makes a move.
