Are you ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certified?

We align our practice to recognised frameworks — ISO 27001, NIST, CIS — and we describe only the certifications we actually hold. "Aligned to ISO 27001" is not "ISO 27001 certified", and SOC 2 is an attestation, not a certification. We will tell you exactly what we hold.

Managed Detection & Response (MDR) — Ghana

Kronix Shield provides managed detection and response (MDR) in Ghana — 24/7 security monitoring, threat detection, triage, and response for banks, government, critical infrastructure, and enterprise. We operate within Ghana's Cyber Security Authority (Act 1038) regime and describe only the certifications we actually hold. Since 2001.

The gap between a breach occurring and it being detected — the dwell time — is where the damage compounds. Managed Detection & Response (MDR) closes that gap by watching continuously, so threats are seen and dealt with around the clock, not discovered weeks later in an audit. Kronix Shield has provided institutional cybersecurity in Ghana since 2001. Request a security assessment — or discuss your security posture: +233 20 531 3333.

What MDR Covers

24/7 Security Monitoring

Continuous monitoring across networks, endpoints, identities, and cloud workloads — because threats do not keep office hours, and the most dangerous window is the one nobody is watching.

Threat Detection & Triage

We detect anomalies and known threats, then triage them — separating noise from genuine signal so your team responds to what is real, not what is loud.

Response & Containment

When a genuine threat is confirmed, we contain, investigate, and coordinate recovery — to a defined playbook agreed before the incident, not improvised during it.

Honest About Frameworks & Licensing

We align to ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS, and we operate within Ghana’s CSA / Act 1038 regime — and we describe only the licences and certifications we actually hold.

Why 24/7 Monitoring Matters

Most institutions cannot staff a security operations capability around the clock internally. Attackers know this — which is why intrusions are timed for nights, weekends, and holidays, when in-house teams are thinnest. The single biggest factor in how much damage an incident does is dwell time: the longer a threat goes undetected, the deeper it embeds and the more it costs to recover from. MDR compresses dwell time by watching when your team cannot.

What We Deliver

| Capability | What it covers | |---|---| | 24/7 security monitoring | Networks, endpoints, identities, cloud | | Threat detection | Anomalies and known threats, surfaced early | | Triage | Real signal separated from noise | | Response & containment | Contain, investigate, coordinate recovery | | Reporting | What was seen, actioned, and what it means |

How an MDR Engagement Works

Onboard & instrument — bring your estate into view.
Monitor around the clock — 24/7, when your team cannot.
Detect & triage — real threats, not false positives.
Respond & contain — to a playbook agreed in advance.
Report & improve — stronger rules, shorter dwell time.

What It Costs — Honestly

MDR is scoped and quoted as a proposal — the size and complexity of your environment, the telemetry sources in scope, and the response depth you need drive it, so there is no flat published rate. We scope it properly and quote against your actual environment.

Regulated & To Standard

Ghana’s Cyber Security Authority (CSA) licenses and accredits cybersecurity service providers under the Cybersecurity Act, 2020 (Act 1038) — a mandatory regime with enforcement from 2026; Ghana is the first in Africa to license providers. We operate within it and state our licensing status honestly — never a licence or accreditation we do not hold
We align our practice to ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS — and we are precise that alignment is not certification; we describe only the certifications we actually hold

Frequently Asked Questions

What is managed detection and response (MDR)? A managed service combining continuous monitoring, threat detection, triage, and response — analysts watching your environment around the clock so real threats are caught and dealt with. A services capability, not a product.

Why is 24/7 monitoring necessary? Because attackers operate continuously and intrusions are timed for nights and weekends. Continuous monitoring compresses dwell time — the single biggest factor in how much damage an incident does.

Is cybersecurity licensing mandatory in Ghana? Yes — under the Cybersecurity Act 2020 (Act 1038) the CSA licenses providers and the regime is mandatory with enforcement from 2026. We operate within it and state our status honestly.

Are you ISO 27001 / SOC 2 certified? We align to ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS and describe only the certifications we actually hold — “aligned” is not “certified”, and SOC 2 is an attestation. We will tell you exactly what we hold.
