About this list

Co-management can cover monitoring, investigation, detection engineering or tool operation. The useful distinction is which tasks the provider performs inside your environment and which remain internal.

Agree ownership of the queue, detection changes, escalation and approved response actions. Confirm whether SIEM administration, engineering hours and incident response are included in the contract.

Questions

How is co-managed SOC different from MDR?
MDR usually centers on detection, investigation and response for covered signals. Co-management shares broader operating work such as SIEM tuning, detection engineering or SOC processes. Offers can overlap.
How should responsibilities be documented?
Map each task to an owner, including after-hours work, approvals and handoffs. Test the workflow during onboarding and agree how scope changes are priced.
