The WithSecure Elements portfolio is geared to help mid-sized companies move from reactive to proactive cyber security measures. Elements bundles are sold pre-packaged. One bundle is for MSPs with small to mid-sized clients who need reactive security covering protection, detection and response. A separate bundle is for MSPs serving mid-sized or higher-risk clients who need proactive and reactive coverage, including AI-powered exposure management. WithSecure MDR handles 24/7 detection and response. WithSecure runs a security operations center that monitors customer environments 24/7, detecting, triaging and responding. MSPs manage, monitor and respond across all customer environments from one management portal, with MSP reporting. WithSecure describes a single console from which endpoints, identities, cloud workloads and threats are managed.^[1][7][9]

For endpoints, WithSecure experts monitor, investigate, and respond to endpoint threats 24/7, powered by Broad Context Detection. The included product is WithSecure Elements Endpoint Security, which covers Mac, Windows, and Linux workstations and servers. One lightweight agent blocks known and unknown threats, including fileless attacks and malware with no known signature. The endpoint offering detects threats in real time and maps them to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. Users can isolate a device, kill a process, quarantine a file, or block a network connection in one click from the management console. Software Updater can apply OS updates and patches for 2,500+ third-party applications automatically.^[9]

For mobile devices, WithSecure offers phishing protection, malware defence, and network-level security for iOS, Android, and ChromeOS, managed from the same console. The mobile offering blocks access to phishing sites and malicious URLs by checking site reputations in real time. A network gateway intercepts mobile traffic and validates URL reputations at the network level, and it is available in selected countries. WithSecure mobile protection detects and blocks malicious and phishing SMS messages before users interact with them. Administrators can send messages, trigger malware scans, request diagnostic files, and check device status remotely. WithSecure mobile protection deploys and manages via Microsoft Intune, VMware Workspace ONE, Google Workspace MDM, Miradore and Samsung Knox.^[9]

WithSecure offers AI attack path simulation for Windows and unmanaged devices, which identifies the fewest fixes that break the most attack paths. WithSecure scans devices for missing patches, misconfigurations, and software vulnerabilities. WithSecure models how an attacker would chain device exposures together to reach critical assets, then identifies the specific choke points where the minimum number of fixes break the high-risk attack paths. For identities, WithSecure experts detect and respond to Entra ID credential theft, privilege escalation, and business email compromise 24/7. The included product is WithSecure Elements Identity Security, which is for Microsoft Entra ID. The Elements VM REST API is used by customers and Scan Nodes. WithSecure Elements endpoint agents are updated automatically.^[2][9][10]
