Endpoint Detection and Response, and Extended Detection and Response
As cyber threats become more sophisticated, it’s crucial for organizations to employ more advanced security measures to protect their sensitive data and digital assets. Two such technologies at the forefront of this cybersecurity war are Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR).
