What is Extended Detection and Response (XDR)?

Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is a security threat detection and response technology that collects and correlates data from multiple security layers – such as endpoint, network, email, and cloud – to provide broader and more effective threat detection, investigation, and response capabilities compared to siloed security solutions. It centralizes security data, normalizes it, and applies analytics to identify and prioritize threats, enabling security teams to respond faster and more effectively.
