eSentire

eSentire, Inc. is a Waterloo, Ontario-headquartered cybersecurity company and, in its own words, "the Authority in Managed Detection and Response (MDR)". Founded in 2001, it protects 2,000+ organizations across 80+ countries and 35 industries with 24/7/365 Managed Detection and Response, Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR), and Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), delivered from its own Atlas Security Operations Platform and staffed Security Operations Centers. Its public machine-readable surface is narrow but real: an llms.txt at the marketing host, an OAuth 2.0 authorization-server and protected-resource metadata pair at api.esentire.com, and an authorization-gated MCP server behind that same host. There is no public OpenAPI, GraphQL schema, or developer portal — the API and the Atlas/Insight portal are reachable only by contracted customers and partners.

eSentire publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Cybersecurity, Managed Detection and Response, and Threat Intelligence.

eSentire’s developer surface includes engineering blog, signup flow, and 19 more developer resources.
