Build a robust MDR platform delivering SOC services: 24/7 monitoring, threat hunting, incident management, reporting, and compliance enablement

Client challenge

We rebuilt the MDR backend on a modern, cloud-native stack - enabling 24/7 threat monitoring, fast investigations and automated incident response across hybrid environments.

The client needed a scalable MDR backbone to unify telemetry, accelerate investigations, and standardize incident response across heterogeneous customer environments.

Key requirements included 24/7 monitoring, advanced threat hunting, prioritized investigations with expert recommendations, and strict compliance.

All the deliveries needed to have high reliability and smooth integration into existing tooling and workflows.

Key results

  • Always-on coverage with centralized telemetry and real-time alerting.
  • Measurably lower MTTD/MTTR through automated triage and guided remediation.
  • Seamless identity and access control via Amazon Cognito (zero-trust aligned).
  • Reliable, repeatable releases with CI/CD and end-to-end test automation.
  • Compliance-ready audit trails and policy-driven, pre-approved actions (PAAs).

Qualysoft solution

  • Cloud-Native Backend (Quarkus on AWS) — High-performance microservices running on AWS with Lambda for elastic compute and event-driven processing.
  • Identity & Security — Amazon Cognito for authentication/authorization and fine-grained, least-privilege access; encrypted data paths and auditable actions.
  • Operations & Delivery — CI/CD pipelines, immutable builds, canary deployments; TestCafe automated UI/regression suites for stable, frequent releases.
  • Integrated Communications — Amazon SES for secure, policy-controlled notifications and reports.
  • AI-Assisted Workflows — Amazon Q integrated to assist analysts with context retrieval, playbook guidance, and investigation summaries (human-in-the-loop).
  • Pre-Approved Actions (PAAs) — Policy-driven response actions with role-based approvals, ensuring compliant and rapid containment.

Top platform components

  • MDR Portal & Reporting
  • 24×7 Security Coverage & Telemetry Ingestion
  • Threat Hunting Workspace
  • Incident Root-Cause & Impact Analysis
  • Expert Recommendations & Playbooks
  • Pre-Approved Actions (PAAs)

Business Outcomes

  • Faster detection and response with automated triage, analyst assist, and standardized playbooks—lowering operational risk.
  • Operational reliability at scale via serverless elasticity, observability, and automated testing.
  • Seamless customer experience with unified portal, consistent reporting, and policy-driven notifications.
  • Compliance & audit readiness through traceable actions, approval workflows, and immutable logs.
  • Future-ready architecture that supports new data sources, response actions, and tenants without disrupting service.
