OneDot61 works with Discern Security on a commercial basis.

**Discern Security is an agentic, proactive security platform. Its AI agents connect to the tools you already own, find gaps in your security controls, prioritise fixes by real risk and business impact, and drive remediation to closure with guardrails and approvals.**

It sits across your existing stack and turns posture data into tracked action, so security teams can focus on fixing while executives can see the progress.

## What Executives See 

**Executives get a single "Are we protected?" view** of posture and gaps, so they can see progress and risk hotspots without reading raw tool dashboards. Trend charts show posture improving over time, and executive dashboards are ready for quarterly business reviews (QBRs). Security teams and executives work from the same data: the team sees what to fix next, and leadership sees whether it's getting fixed. 

Under [ASD Essentials](https://www.onedot61.au/asd-essentials-demonstrate-effectiveness/), executives carry greater accountability for cyber security, and deployment alone doesn't demonstrate effectiveness. Discern's posture trends can help executives **see whether controls are working over time, and show it.**

## What It Helps Security Teams Fix

- **Baseline health checks** across the tools you already use, rather than occasional reviews
- **Drift detection** across endpoint, identity, email and cloud controls
- **Focused remediation** that weighs exposure, business context and risk
- **Audit and insurance evidence:** framework-aligned and easy to pull when needed, instead of spending weeks gathering proof

Discern maps controls to frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, MITRE D3FEND, NIST and CIS.

## Works With the Tools You Already Have

Discern works alongside your existing tools rather than replacing them. Its [integrations](https://www.discernsecurity.com/all-integrations?ref=onedot61.au) cover EDR, identity, email security, SASE and zero trust, cloud, vulnerability management, SIEM and SOAR, and IT service management, including CrowdStrike Falcon, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Netskope, Zscaler, Tenable, Qualys, Armis, Jamf, ServiceNow and Jira.

## You Choose the Level of Automation

Discern doesn't force one way of working. For each type of action, you choose one of three tiers:

- **Recommend only:** Discern recommends the fix, and your team decides what to do
- **Approval required:** Discern takes the action only after someone approves it
- **Autonomous execution:** Discern acts itself, within the scope you've authorised

Mix the tiers: for example, autonomous for routine fixes and approval required for anything sensitive. Every automated action is logged, and you can pause automation at any time.

## Meet the Agents

Six named AI agents each handle part of the work:

- **Scout** discovers and enriches assets, exposures and risks, and turns security best practices into practical health checks
- **Oracle** explains what changed, why it matters and what to do next
- **Pathfinder** turns long lists of vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and risky assets into a prioritised plan, highlighting the ten issues to tackle first
- **Resolve** turns prioritised findings into tracked remediation actions with guardrails, approvals and accountability
- **Atlas** turns plain-English questions into dashboards, charts and reusable queries
- **Mesh** aligns policies, priorities and coverage across tools so the programme works as a whole

## Built for MSPs and MSSPs

Discern has a dedicated set of [MSP and MSSP use cases](https://www.discernsecurity.com/use-cases-for-msp-mssp?ref=onedot61.au), including:

- One-click executive dashboards showing health score, coverage, risk trends and top exposures for any client
- Consistent, multi-tenant reporting even when clients run different tool stacks
- Coverage gaps, such as partly deployed EDR or MFA, that show where a client is exposed, under-protected or under-licensed, turning client insight into growth
