    Now Available: Bulk Rule Management For MSPs

    To all our MSPs: You’ve asked for this feature and we wanted to get it into your hands as early as possible! We will continue to refine it based on your feedback – please reach out to our team at ideas@blumira.com.

    As an MSP administrator, you're extremely busy managing multiple client accounts with limited time to spend on one security tool. With that in mind, Blumira has released Bulk Rule Management, a feature of our MSP Portal that increases visibility into all detection rules, while saving you time managing and configuring detections across all of your client accounts. Bulk Detection Rule Management is a necessary building block towards Bulk Detection Filter Management which will be released in 2025.

    Within the MSP Portal, MSPs can now:

    • Set a default state for detection rules, overriding the Blumira default for newly onboarded accounts
    • Bulk enable or disable detection rules across accounts
    • See all potential detection rules in one place (not only ones for log types sent)

     Use preset filters to sort your list of rules:

    • Findings past 24 hours
    • Created in the past month
    • Blumira or custom default state
    • Default enabled or disabled
    • Enabled or disabled for account
    • Different from default state

    Access this feature from your MSP Portal > Bulk Actions. Log into app.blumira.com to walk through how the feature works.

    Picture 1 - Bulk Management - Detection Rules

    In the MSP Portal > Bulk Actions menu, you'll find key information about your detections, such as:

    • A list of all potential detections in the platform, even if you aren't sending that type of data yet
    • Total amount of findings from each detection across all of your accounts
    • Count of both enabled and supported accounts
    • Blumira's default state of each rule at time of deployment to the account
    • Creation date of every rule, so you know which rules are newly added to the app

    Blumira’s Incident Detection Engineering (IDE) team manages the detection rules that power Blumira’s platform to identify indicators of compromise early and often for our customers. They:

    • Conduct threat hunting & release new detections every week
    • Ensure actionable findings are sent within minutes (or less) of initial detection for the fastest response times

    • Blumira or custom default state
    • Default enabled or disabled
    • Enabled or disabled for account
    • Different from default state
