Overview
Secureworks Taegis VDR leverages 40+ internal and external factors to yield a meaningful prioritized list of vulnerabilities, so you know what to fix first, and what can wait. Other vulnerability management products may require substantial upfront configuration, as well as ongoing manual intervention. Our objective is to automate as much of the VM process as possible, automating manual tasks you normally must do daily, weekly and monthly.
Our holistic view of vulnerabilities across machines, connected devices, and web applications allows Secureworks to deliver a significantly more meaningful risk score for each vulnerability, one that accounts for each vulnerability's unique circumstances, surrounding environment, and operational context.
VDR's Contextual Prioritization has been shown to reduce the number of critical vulnerabilities on some networks by a factor of 15. More importantly, Secureworks' prioritization engine identifies seemingly low criticality vulnerabilities that are actually high priority, surfacing serious security issues that might otherwise be neglected.
Perhaps the most compelling element of VDR is its exclusive Contextual Prioritization. No other VM solution on the market delivers a prioritization capability that understands the asset's operational context, accounts for the unique characteristics of your network, and yields a vulnerability risk score unique to each network - and even unique to the same vulnerability on different parts of the network.

Advanced detections have exposed credential abuse early and stop lateral movement across environments
Reviewed on Jan 13, 2026
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for SecureWorks Taegis VDR was initially conducting a proof of concept after we were using McAfee. I rolled it out to a pilot set of devices to understand how it functions, and the results were amazing because it provided detailed analysis.
A specific example of how SecureWorks Taegis VDR helped my team during that pilot was detecting early credential abuse and lateral movement across my hybrid environment. Since we had SecureWorks Taegis VDR in place, we wanted to assess how it would detect these threats, and it was able to detect multiple servers using Kerberos and NTLM attacks. It also detected the lateral movement using valid credentials and captured the suspicious administrative commands that were executed in this multi-stage incident.
My main use case for SecureWorks Taegis VDR is that it is definitely one of the best tools in terms of high-fidelity detections, with initial access, credential abuse, lateral movement, and these elements mapped appropriately in terms of the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
What is most valuable?
The best features SecureWorks Taegis VDR offers that stand out to me are the dashboard and the automated response. Based on severity, it can isolate the affected device and disable the compromised account or reset the password for the compromised account, and also block suspicious networks while notifying the SOC analysts with enriched text content.
SecureWorks Taegis VDR has positively impacted my organization by correlating identity, endpoint, and network signals to detect credential-based attacks early and responding before lateral movement escalation in most of my scenarios.
What needs improvement?
I would like to improve SecureWorks Taegis VDR by enhancing the dashboard to provide a holistic view with granular data.
I also request the product engineering team for enhancements regarding integration, reporting, or user experience.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SecureWorks Taegis VDR from 2022 until today.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
SecureWorks Taegis VDR is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
SecureWorks Taegis VDR's scalability is notable.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is good.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Negative
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used McAfee, which had become very traditional, so I had to switch.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment, specifically in terms of time saved.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I think the pricing, setup cost, and licensing of SecureWorks Taegis VDR are acceptable compared with CrowdStrike and other tools.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I chose SecureWorks Taegis VDR because I trust SecureWorks, having worked with McAfee, Symantec, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, Carbon Black, Cylance, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Cortex XDR , and more. I know these products have evolved from traditional antivirus to EDR, and I would say SecureWorks Taegis VDR is outstanding among all the other vendors in terms of functionality, ease of access, and UI friendliness.
What other advice do I have?
I found this interview absolutely fantastic.
I would advise others looking into using SecureWorks Taegis VDR that it is one of the reliable solutions anyone should try, and if it yields good results, I would definitely recommend switching to SecureWorks.
I recommend SecureWorks Taegis VDR because it is highly scalable by design and well-suited for mid-sized to very large enterprises, including global hybrid and cloud-heavy environments. Its cloud-native elastic architecture is built as a cloud-native SaaS platform that automatically scales compute and storage as telemetry volume increases without requiring customer-side infrastructure scaling, and it can handle bursty workloads such as incident spikes and ransomware attacks. I gave this product a rating of eight out of ten.
