Woburn, MA – February 4, 2025 – Advanced Data Risk Management (ADRM), a trusted leader in data-driven risk management solutions, is proud to announce the commercial launch of its revolutionary DEFENDER Managed Services Platform, setting a new standard for integrated security system management. With DEFENDER, ADRM continues to disrupt the security industry by delivering cutting-edge tools that empower organizations to safeguard critical assets effectively.
The DEFENDER platform provides a single-pane-of-glass view into systems including access control, video management, key control, visitor management, and more. DEFENDER offers real-time alerts, dashboards, and comprehensive reports. It redefines the managed services landscape by not only automating key processes but also addressing critical gaps in traditional managed services provider (MSP) offerings.
DEFENDER takes a proactive approach by performing daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly checks, managing software versions and licenses, ensuring warranties are upheld, and tracking service requests to completion. DEFENDER also delivers data-driven insights that enable informed decision-making, ensuring optimal system utilization and performance.
Available as a SaaS (Software as a Service) subscription model, DEFENDER provides organizations with a scalable, cost-effective solution tailored to their specific needs. This flexible approach ensures companies can easily adopt and implement DEFENDER without significant upfront investments, while benefiting from regular updates and ongoing support.
A key innovation of DEFENDER is its ability to notify administrators of impending system health issues, license expirations, and firmware updates, significantly reducing the risk of costly system downtime or vulnerabilities. With built-in integration to daily CISA reports, DEFENDER identifies cyber vulnerabilities and recommends immediate action to keep systems secure.
“Today’s corporate security environments are highly complex, and a single oversight can compromise an entire system,” said Dan O’Neill, President and CEO of ADRM.
“DEFENDER simplifies security management, ensuring every component of a network is properly maintained and operating at peak performance. By providing real-time insights and proactive alerts, DEFENDER minimizes downtime and protects against critical failures. DEFENDER significantly reduces vulnerabilities and liability for our clients.”
ADRM’s patented platform, DEFENDER, is now available to clients and other MSPs including Security Integration Firms, Consultants and Security Officer Providers. By receiving input from all components on the system, DEFENDER ensures administrators have a comprehensive understanding of their system’s health and performance—down to how many cameras are in operation—all accessible with a click of a button.
“DEFENDER was born from a deep understanding of the complexities in managing security systems and the environments they inhabit. We’ve crafted a platform that’s not only powerful and comprehensive, but also intuitive and visually appealing, ensuring that every detail—from abstract licenses to tangible assets—is easily managed,” said Matt Isgur, CTO of ADRM and formerly responsible for electronic security systems at MIT. “In an ever-evolving technology landscape, DEFENDER’s agile, modular foundation allows us to rapidly adapt to emerging challenges and meet client needs. As a result, development cycles that once took months can now be completed in a matter of days—empowering our customers to stay ahead of the curve,” added Isgur.
ADRM aims to elevate the industry as a whole, emphasizing that security is a shared responsibility. The DEFENDER Managed Services Platform empowers and prioritizes safety and reliability while delivering exceptional service.
Fully deployed, DEFENDER is now available for ADRM’s managed services clients and partner MSPs. Learn more: https://www.adrm-security.com/defender
