Overview

enhanced.io is a channel-only Open XDR SOCaaS built exclusively for MSPs, with 400+ integrations across endpoint, network, cloud, identity and IoT/OT. Every partner gets a named Fractional Security Director who works openly with your team and joins client calls where you lead.

N-able acquired Adlumin in November 2024. Adlumin's AI-powered XDR platform and expert-led MDR service detect threats from endpoints to DNS to shadow AI activity, and the vendor states its own AI autonomously mitigates over 70% of threats (vendor claim). It is not SIEM-only: it bundles tiered 24/7 MDR/SOC with SIEM, SOAR and UEBA, and states a vendor-agnostic approach with full customer access to underlying data and reporting.

Where

N-able Adlumin

falls short for MSPs

N-able ecosystem tie-in

N-able ecosystem tie-in

Now part of the N-able ecosystem following the November 2024 acquisition, which ties commercial and product decisions to N-able's broader RMM roadmap.

IoT/OT gap

IoT/OT gap

IoT/OT is not identified as a covered surface.

Network detection unconfirmed

Network detection unconfirmed

Network detection depends on SIEM log ingestion rather than a confirmed independent NDR sensor.

Unvalidated vendor claim

Unvalidated vendor claim

The 70%+ autonomous mitigation figure is a vendor claim without independent validation.

No named contact

No named contact

No named individual security contact is confirmed per MSP partner, despite the platform's genuinely strong data-access transparency.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is N-able Adlumin a good fit for MSPs?

N-able Adlumin is a good fit for MSPs who want a vendor-agnostic AI-powered XDR and MDR service with genuine full data access and reporting. It's now part of the N-able ecosystem following its November 2024 acquisition. For MSPs who want that same data transparency plus IoT/OT coverage, independent of any single RMM vendor's roadmap, that's where enhanced.io comes in.

What's the difference between enhanced.io and N-able Adlumin?

enhanced.io adds IoT/OT as a correlated surface, which Adlumin doesn't cover, and assigns a named Fractional Security Director to every partner. Adlumin's data-transparency model, full customer access to underlying data and reporting, is a genuine comparable strength worth noting.

How long does it take to get started with enhanced.io

Onboarding is typically 30 to 45 days, scoped to what's being onboarded. The MSP completes the intake forms and enhanced.io handles onboarding from there. The MSP supplying information promptly is the main driver of speed.
