Stellar Cyber’s Open XDR model gives you more visibility, more automation, and more control—without sacrificing flexibility.

If you run an MSP (Managed Service Provider) or SOC (Security Operations Center), you already know—today’s market is unforgiving. Cyber threats are growing in speed and sophistication, while clients expect you to deliver enterprise-grade protection without blowing their budgets.

You need a platform that keeps you competitive, makes your operations leaner, and integrates seamlessly with the tools you already rely on. That platform is Open XDR, and specifically, Stellar Cyber.

This isn’t just another tech option. It’s a recommendation for MSPs and SOC providers who want to reduce tool chaos, increase detection speed, and improve margins—without being trapped in a vendor’s closed ecosystem.

Why Open XDR Matters for MSPs and SOC Providers

In today’s evolving cybersecurity landscape, MSPs need flexible solutions that integrate seamlessly with diverse tools. Open XDR platforms offer this adaptability, enabling MSPs to:

• Integrate with existing security tools, avoiding vendor lock-in.
• Enhance threat detection by correlating data across multiple sources.
• Streamline operations with centralised visibility and automated responses.

By adopting an open integration approach, MSPs can deliver robust, scalable security services tailored to their clients’ needs.

The Reality: Tool Sprawl is Inevitable

Every MSP and SOC supports a unique mix of environments:

• Fortinet for one client, Palo Alto or Checkpoint for another.
• Coro in one stack, Cynet or SentinelOne in another.
• M365 everywhere, plus AWS and Azure workloads.

This diversity is your reality—but it also creates headaches:

• Siloed data means security intelligence is scattered.
• Operational drag as analysts waste time switching platforms.
• Missed threats because gaps in correlation hide attacks.
• Higher costs from duplicate tools and wasted licenses eating into margins.

Trying to shoehorn this into a closed XDR model is a fast track to inefficiency.

Why We Recommend Open Integration

An Open XDR platform doesn’t dictate your tools—it unites them. It ingests, normalises, and correlates data from all your security layers, no matter the vendor. This gives you a single source of truth and a faster, more automated response capability.

For MSPs and SOC providers, the operational benefits are huge:

• Faster detection and response—see threats sooner and shut them down faster.
• Centralised workflows—one pane of glass for all alerts, playbooks, and investigations.
• Automation at scale—automatically trigger firewall blocks, endpoint quarantines, and ticket creation.
• Tool consolidation—keep what works, drop what doesn’t, and still have full visibility.

Why Stellar Cyber is Our Pick

Stellar Cyber is built for open integration from day one. No lock-in. No forced bundles. Just deep interoperability with the tools you and your clients already trust.

It integrates with:

• Firewalls: Fortinet, Palo Alto, Checkpoint, Cisco, Sophos, and more.
• EDR/XDR: SentinelOne, Cynet, Coro, Microsoft Defender, ESET, Kaspersky, Watchguard, Crowdstrike and others.
• Cloud: AWS, Azure, GCP.
• M365: Email, identity, endpoint.
• SIEM & logging: Splunk, QRadar, LogRhythm.
• ITSM & PSA: Jira, ServiceNow.

You bring your stack—Stellar Cyber brings the correlation, automation, and unified visibility.

Our Recommendation

If you’re an MSP or SOC provider, closed XDR platforms will slow you down and erode your margins. In contrast, Stellar Cyber’s Open XDR model gives you more visibility, more automation, and more control—without sacrificing flexibility.

Your clients aren’t all the same. Your security platform shouldn’t be either.

We strongly recommend MSPs and SOC providers evaluate Stellar Cyber to unify their stack, streamline their SOC, and improve profitability.
