EDR

As cybersecurity threats evolve in complexity and stealth, relying solely on Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) may leave gaps in your organization's defense strategy. While EDR plays a critical role in monitoring and responding to threats at the endpoint level, it is not comprehensive.
  • A study by the Ponemon Institute reveals that organizations utilizing both EDR and NDR solutions report a 50% faster response time to threats compared to those using EDR alone.
  • A 2021 Study found 94% of the top 26 EDR solutions could be bypassed using at least one standard evasion method.

Despite AI and machine learning advancements, many EDR systems primarily use rule-based methods for identifying behaviors and patterns.

Network Detection and Response (NDR) complements EDR by providing visibility into network behaviors and anomalies, offering a more holistic approach to cybersecurity.

Understanding how EDR and NDR work together can empower your security teams to detect and respond to threats more effectively, ensuring a robust security posture.
