Managed Detection and Response Pricing in Australia — MDR Cost Per Endpoint Explained
MDR (managed detection and response) in Australia is normally priced per endpoint per month, and the price depends on the service tier, the coverage hours and what technology is bundled. CyberOM's online store publishes its managed packages in US dollars: SOC & Response at US$9.20, SOC & Extended Response at US$15.00 and Full Cyber Stack at US$35.00 per endpoint per month, billed monthly on a 12-month commitment. Current prices and inclusions are always the ones shown at cyberom.shop/packages.

What is MDR and what does it include?
MDR is the continuous monitoring of endpoints and environments by a security operations centre team, combining analyst-driven threat detection with coordinated response to contain incidents. It differs from basic antivirus, which mainly identifies known threats, and from an unmanaged EDR tool that generates alerts without a team continuously reviewing and responding to them. Read more about CyberOM's managed detection and response service.
What affects MDR pricing per endpoint in Australia?
- Number of endpoints
- Service tier: detection only, or detection with response and remediation
- Coverage hours: business hours or 24/7
- Technologies included, such as an EDR agent or email security
- Contract length
- Onboarding or setup fees
Providers quote in different currencies and configurations, so compare like for like.

How does MDR compare with building in-house security?
An in-house capability means accounting for salaries as well as security tooling, training and on-call cover. A managed service spreads those operating costs across many clients. Wage benchmarks are available from SEEK and the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Compare total cost of ownership rather than only the per-endpoint price.

What is the Essential Eight and how does it relate to a managed service?

CyberOM's Essential Eight service page describes support through gap analysis, practical recommendations, implementation planning, monitoring and ongoing improvement.
