What is AV/EDR?

AV/EDR stands for Antivirus/Endpoint Detection and Response. AV solutions primarily focus on preventing malware infections through signature-based detection. EDR solutions provide more advanced threat detection, incident response, and forensic capabilities by continuously monitoring endpoints for suspicious activity, analyzing behaviors, and providing tools for investigating and remediating threats. AV/EDR solutions are commonly used to protect computers and networks from malware, ransomware, and other cyberattacks.
