What is EDR?

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a cybersecurity technology that continuously monitors endpoints (desktops, laptops, servers, etc.) for suspicious activity and malicious behavior. It provides real-time threat detection, automated response capabilities, and forensic analysis tools to help security teams identify, investigate, and remediate threats quickly and effectively. EDR solutions commonly collect and analyze endpoint data, correlate events, and provide visibility into the endpoint environment to detect and respond to advanced threats that may bypass traditional security controls.
