EDR, MDR & XDR: Demystifying the security acronyms
Safeguarding your digital assets is a considerable challenge for organisations and it feels like there is an ever growing list of tools you need to protect yourself in this connected world.
This series will focus on three of the most popular security tools: EDR, MDR, and XDR, exploring their significance, understanding their benefits, and discovering the scenarios where each shines.
Understanding EDR, MDR & XDR
- EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) focuses on predictive threat detection for endpoints. It identifies advanced persistent threats and never-before-seen malware, leveraging cyber threat intelligence and machine learning. EDR records and analyses suspicious activities, aiding incident response and containing breaches.
- MDR (Managed Detection and Response) is a fully managed solution. It provides continuous monitoring, threat detection, and incident response across endpoints. MDR teams actively hunt threats and integrate seamlessly with your existing security operations.
- XDR (Extended Detection and Response) offers broader visibility beyond endpoints. It unifies data from various sources (endpoints, network, cloud) to provide a holistic view. XDR emphasises context, automation, and protection across the entire attack surface.
In summary, EDR is endpoint-focused, MDR is outsourced and comprehensive, and XDR extends visibility across multiple environments.
