Why do MDR providers not publish exact pricing?

MDR pricing depends on environment-specific variables like asset count, event volume, integrations, retention, and response scope. Publishing a single price without these inputs would not reflect the actual cost for most customers.

What is a typical MDR price range?

MDR pricing typically ranges from a few hundred dollars per month for foundational monitoring to tens of thousands per month for full managed security operations partnerships. Griffendo starting pricing begins at $650/month for NOW and $3,500/month for SHIELD.

Is managed SIEM included in MDR pricing?

With Griffendo, yes. SIEM, SOAR, UEBA, AI-SOC, and threat hunting are all included within the managed security operations plans — not sold as separate add-ons.

Q: How do I get Griffendo pricing for my organization?

Contact Griffendo to request a pricing review scoped to your environment, assets, event volume, integrations, compliance needs, and response requirements.

Quick answer

MDR pricing is typically scoped to your environment based on asset count, event volume, integrations, log retention, compliance requirements, and response authority. Most providers require a discovery call before quoting. Griffendo provides starting pricing upfront — beginning at $650/month for NOW and $3,500/month for SHIELD — so organizations can understand the investment range before scoping.
