Create an MDR Portal Account & Invite Users

The Field Effect MDR Portal is at the center of your deployment, as it is where you will interact and configure your service. you should create an account for the MDR Portal as soon as possible. After creating your account, invite technical members from your organization to create their own accounts.

Set Up Cloud Monitoring

Enrolling a cloud service is usually as simple as providing administrator credential for each cloud service in the MDR Portal. Our Help Center has setup guides for every cloud service supported by Field Effect.

Of our cloud services, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 support Active Response. So, it’s important to set up Active Response prior to setting up cloud services, as you will be given a chance to enable Active Response when setting up services that support it.
