What is Binary Defense

Binary Defense is a managed detection and response (MDR) service that provides 24/7 security monitoring, threat detection, and incident response support for organizations that want to augment or outsource parts of their security operations. It combines a managed SOC with endpoint telemetry and security analytics to identify and triage suspicious activity across endpoints and other data sources. The product is typically used by mid-market and enterprise teams that need continuous monitoring, guided remediation, and escalation support without building a full in-house SOC.

pros

24/7 managed SOC coverage

Binary Defense centers on continuous monitoring and analyst-led investigation, which fits organizations that need around-the-clock detection and response. The service model supports alert triage, escalation, and incident handling workflows rather than only delivering software alerts. This can reduce the operational burden on small security teams that cannot staff a full SOC.

Incident response expertise included

The offering emphasizes response support in addition to detection, including guidance on containment and remediation steps. This is useful when customers need help translating detections into actions and coordinating response activities. It aligns with MDR buying criteria where service depth matters as much as tooling.

Endpoint-focused visibility

Binary Defense includes endpoint monitoring capabilities that help detect suspicious behavior on workstations and servers. Endpoint telemetry is a common foundation for MDR programs because it supports investigation and containment actions. This can be a practical fit for organizations prioritizing endpoint-driven detection and response workflows.

cons

Service dependence and variability

As an MDR-first offering, outcomes depend on service processes such as triage quality, escalation paths, and analyst responsiveness. Organizations with strict internal playbooks may need to validate how the provider handles approvals, communications, and after-hours response. Some teams may prefer more direct control than a managed model provides.

Integration scope may vary

MDR programs often rely on integrating multiple log and security data sources beyond endpoints (for example, identity, cloud, email, and network telemetry). The breadth and depth of supported integrations and the effort to onboard them can vary by environment. Buyers typically need to confirm which sources are supported natively versus requiring custom work.

Less suited for DIY teams

Organizations primarily seeking a standalone EDR tool with minimal managed services may find the MDR-centric packaging less aligned to their operating model. Teams with mature internal SOC capabilities may overlap with services they already run. In those cases, the value depends on whether the provider can complement existing tooling and processes rather than replace them.

Plan & Pricing

Pricing model: Investigation-based / subscription (priced by number of monthly investigations)

Public list prices: Not published on Binary Defense’s official website—customers are instructed to contact sales for quotes or demos.

Known contract & fee terms (publicly stated):

  • Payment terms: 100% of total fees/expenses are due and payable for each year of the subscription term before Binary Defense has any obligation to perform services. (See Terms).
  • Overage charge: If a client exceeds their contracted monthly investigation maximum for multiple months, Binary Defense reserves the right to charge $300 per investigation for overages beyond the contracted maximum.
  • Threat-hunting / analysis rates: Certain investigative or threat-hunting work is billed at $350/hour (specified for Threat Hunting and CounterIntelligence further investigations).
  • Proof-of-Concept / trial: Binary Defense may, at its discretion, offer Proof of Concept (trial) services; these are limited, discretionary, and not guaranteed as a standard public trial.

Endpoint / EDR product (BDVision / Vision): Binary Defense’s BDVision / Vision endpoint platform is presented on the vendor site with product capabilities and “Get a demo” / licensing references (EULA/System Fee described in legal docs), but no per-endpoint or per-seat public pricing is published; customers are directed to request a demo/quote.

Summary (vendor-published): Public pricing is not published as fixed tiers or per-endpoint rates; the vendor uses an investigation-based pricing model and requires contacting sales for quotes.
