The Problem
Antivirus Alone Is No Longer Enough
Traditional antivirus only catches what it already knows. Modern attackers are more sophisticated – they live inside your systems for days, weeks or months before striking, using legitimate tools to avoid detection.
Ransomware, business email compromise, and supply chain attacks all rely on this blind spot. By the time your antivirus flags something, the damage is already done.
Blowfish Technology’s Managed EDR service, powered by Huntress, closes this gap – giving your business the same level of protection that large enterprises rely on, at a price point built for SMEs.

How It Works
Huntress Managed EDR – Under the Hood
Huntress combines a lightweight agent on every endpoint with 24/7 monitoring by a dedicated Security Operations Centre staffed by real human analysts.
Deploy the Agent
A lightweight Huntress agent is deployed to every endpoint – Windows, Mac or Linux. It takes minutes, requires no reboots and uses minimal system resources.
Continuous Monitoring
Huntress’s platform monitors every endpoint around the clock – analysing process activity, persistence mechanisms and lateral movement to identify suspicious behaviour that automated tools miss.
Human Threat Hunting
When something suspicious is flagged, real human analysts at Huntress’s 24/7 SOC investigate. They don’t just alert – they actively hunt for threats and determine whether something is genuinely malicious.
Automated Response
Confirmed threats are automatically isolated and remediated where possible – stopping attacks in their tracks before they spread to other devices or cause data loss.
Clear Incident Reports
You receive plain-English incident reports detailing exactly what was found, what action was taken and what it means for your business – no jargon, no noise.
Blowfish Manages It All
As your managed IT partner, Blowfish Technology handles deployment, monitoring, escalation and ongoing management – you get full EDR protection without needing an in-house security team.
Key Features
Everything Included as Standard
Persistent Foothold Detection
Huntress specifically hunts for the persistence mechanisms attackers use to maintain long-term access to your systems – registry keys, scheduled tasks, startup items and more.
Ransomware Canaries
Huntress plants hidden canary files across your endpoints. If ransomware starts encrypting files, it hits these first – triggering an immediate response before your real data is affected.
Process Injection Detection
Attackers often hide malicious code inside legitimate processes. Huntress monitors for this behaviour in real time – catching techniques that bypass traditional security tools entirely.
Full Endpoint Visibility
A single dashboard gives complete visibility across every protected endpoint – what’s running, what’s been detected and the current security posture of your entire environment.
Automated Threat Isolation
When a threat is confirmed, affected endpoints can be automatically isolated from the network – stopping lateral movement and containing the incident while remediation takes place.
Windows, Mac & Linux
Full coverage across all major operating systems – protecting every device in your environment regardless of platform, including servers and remote worker devices.
Why Blowfish + Huntress
Enterprise Security for North West SMEs
Huntress was built specifically for the SME market – and Blowfish Technology was built to deliver it locally. Together, we give your business protection that was previously only available to enterprises with dedicated security teams.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between EDR and antivirus? ⌄
Antivirus relies on known threat signatures – it can only catch what it already knows about. EDR goes much further, monitoring device behaviour in real time and using human analysts to identify threats that have no known signature. Managed EDR catches attacks that antivirus completely misses.
Do I need to replace my existing antivirus? ⌄
No. Huntress Managed EDR is designed to work alongside your existing antivirus as a complementary layer of protection. It catches what your AV misses – you don’t have to choose one or the other.
How quickly can Huntress Managed EDR be deployed? ⌄
Blowfish Technology can typically have the Huntress agent rolled out across all your endpoints within a few hours. There are no reboots required and minimal disruption to your team.
What happens when a threat is detected? ⌄
Huntress’s SOC analysts investigate, confirm whether it’s a genuine threat and take appropriate action. You receive a clear, plain-English report explaining what happened. Blowfish Technology will also contact you directly for any incidents requiring your attention.
Is Huntress Managed EDR suitable for small businesses? ⌄
Yes – it was specifically designed for small and medium-sized businesses. The service is priced per endpoint, making it accessible and scalable for businesses of any size.
How much does Managed EDR cost? ⌄
Huntress Managed EDR is priced on a per-endpoint, per-month basis. Contact us for a tailored quote based on the number of devices you need to protect.
