MXDR Services have the following features:

  1. MXDR Portal. Customer shall have read-only access to and use of the MXDR Portal, which is made available by Accenture to the Customer for use solely with respect to MXDR Services during the applicable Service Commitment.
  2. MXDR Full Stack Infrastructure. Accenture will provision and maintain an environment for Customer
    on Accenture’s multi-tenant platform to deliver the MXDR Services for the Service Commitment. Accenture will use the Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) Platform to normalize, index, correlate and analyze Customer’s log data to detect security events, triage and prioritize response actions. Accenture will use the Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) Platform to support its coordination, investigation, and response to security events, including automated containment or escalation in accordance with agreed Playbooks. Customer will have read-only access to the SIEM/SOAR via the Accenture MXDR Portal. All MXDR Full Stack components such as SIEM and SOAR are maintained and managed by Accenture.
  3. CyberHub. Accenture’s will provide Customer with read-only access to its CyberHub log collection tool, which is provided by Accenture and installed by Customer on virtual infrastructure. Further details on the CyberHub and Customer infrastructure requirements can be found in the CyberHub deployment guide distributed by Accenture (“CyberHub Deployment Guide”).
  4. Cyber Intelligence. Accenture will supplement native cyber intelligence capabilities of the SIEM and SOAR Platforms with API feeds from Accenture’s proprietary Cyber Intelligence (ACI) to support the provision of the MXDR Services for the Service Commitment. Customer supplied threat intelligence is not supported.
  5. Security AI Assistant. The MXDR Services includes the use of generative AI-powered tools (“Gen AI Tools”) to enhance accuracy, efficiency and/or user experience of the services. Accenture shall be exclusively responsible for complying with any terms and conditions provided by the supplier(s) of the Gen AI Tools. The use of Gen AI Tools is required for the use of Security AI Assistant Tool. The Customer that purchases Security AI Assistant acknowledge that Accenture will input Customer data, including MXDR Personal Data into the Gen AI Tools to prompt the relevant context, and Accenture warrants that such Gen AI Tools will not retain any Customer data nor reuse it for any purpose other than to reply to such users’ prompts.
  6. Security Operations Centers. MXDR Services are performed remotely by Accenture security staff aligned to one of Accenture’s Security Operations Centers (“SOC(s)”). A list of SOC locations can be found in Attachment 1 to this Schedule. Accenture may provide Customer with information and notices about the MXDR Services electronically, including via email through the MXDR Portal. Notice is given as of the date it is made available by Accenture.
  7. Continuous Threat Hunting. As Cyber Intelligence feeds identify new threats, Accenture will perform a retrospective threat hunt over the preceding 12 months of log data using SOC Infrastructure capabilities.
  8. Scheduled Maintenance. Accenture will, from time to time, schedule regular maintenance of the platform and the SOC Infrastructure. Accenture will provide notice of upcoming maintenance via the MXDR Portal.
  9. Emergency Maintenance. Accenture might on rare occasions schedule emergency maintenance due to unforeseen circumstances.
  10. Supported Device(s). The Supported Products List – Full Stack (“SPL-FS”) specifies, on the MXDR Platform, the list of supported technologies that may be integrated with MXDR Services.
  11. Technical Support. Customer is responsible for maintaining its Devices. Accenture will provide reasonable technical assistance for issues regarding integration of Customer Devices with the MXDR Services.
  12. Permitted Nodes. The term “Node Count” shall mean the total number of Nodes owned or used by Customer (and/or any Affiliate Entity of Customer) that are active in the MXDR Service for at least four hours within a 24-hour period.

Customer remains responsible for the remediation of any identified vulnerabilities unless separately agreed.
  2. Penetration testing or vulnerability scanning activities.
  3. Any audit or compliance assessments of relevant security controls or related attestations; any expert testimony or litigation support services, such as (a) depositions, fact witness testimony, expert witness testimony, affidavits, declarations, expert reports; (b) responding to discovery requests, subpoenas; (c) eDiscovery services; and/or (d) other forms of litigation support or participation in any legal proceeding relating to the subject matter of the engagement (including those involving a governmental entity); and (e) activity which Accenture reasonably determines is likely to breach applicable law or infringe the rights of a third party, of which Accenture will notify Verizon if it determines that it cannot perform such activities.
